I’m back working with the UEA on another immersive project for a bit. If anyone else out there needs help with devising, developing and deploying digital arts & storytelling projects, I am available for hire! moongolfer.com/2026/06/01/t...

Instead of getting us all to pile into Iceland and Tesco to buy plastic bottles and processed food, couldn’t the govt suggest more environmentally friendly and healthier ways to become a Prepper? Rain water recovery, pickles and fermentation anyone? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Well done Harry Kane. A deserved winner of the Balloon d'Or.

Don’t say you weren’t warned about AI agents. Tom has a track record when it comes to predicting these things. My chief worry is that agents will get very good at *complaining*. Get ready for a tsunami of detailed and unrelenting complaint emails.

I should leave the country more often #ncfc

If Harry Darling is the answer what the fuck is the question? #ncfc

I once had a digital project reviewed in the Times by someone writing ‘I haven’t actually tried this but I just know it’s going to be awful’. Becoming ‘tech’ correspondent can be a bit like becoming ‘culture’ secretary. You don’t have to be qualified.

Happy retirement Teemu. #ncfc #otbc 👍👍🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮 youtu.be/Z-T35cIzUrY?...

Here’s a lovely bit of Kacy & Clayton playing with Marlon Williams. Enjoy. youtu.be/e0zFkeH9PAM

Lobbing in crosses with tiny Kvistgaarden as the target man is … er… optimistic. #ncfc

And we are already at the part of the season when we have two left backs on the bench #ncfc

“We will keep in mind that most current commercially available large language models (upon which other AI services are built) have been developed and fine-tuned by using the world’s copyright materials, without transparency, permission or payment.” - KEEP IN MIND?! 🤷🏼‍♂️

The five star reviews for St Peter’s in Gorleston include such gems as ‘good’, ‘great location’, ‘a religious place’ and ‘ok’. maps.app.goo.gl/9ert2Ex2F5Rz...

Stylish, odd, paranoid - and that’s just Rock Hudson. The Frankenheimer movie that time seems to have forgot. #amwatching #film boxd.it/gMALbx

My God this film was soooo boring! #film #amwatching #zzz boxd.it/gKEZob

A few years ago @moongolfer.com and I mapped out Mick Herron’s Slow Horses for our Curiously Specific Book Club podcast. This interview with Herron confirms we were ABSOLUTELY CORRECT. observer.co.uk/news/observe...

This time last year we had 8 points from 11 games. This year we have 9 from 9. Not exactly progress… #ncfc

Fair result. Poor second half. #ncfc

Time for some Makama mayhem! #ncfc

Their half time talk was clearly better than ours… #ncfc

WR-I-I-I-I-G-H-TTTTTT! #ncfc

Come on you Yellows! #otbc #ncfc

Have just mortgaged the house to pay for a beef joint.

My key memory of this 12-inch was that the grooves were so tightly packed on it that it kept skipping on my crappy record player. I took it back to the shop twice to get a replacement. Finally the store owner advised me to Blu-tack a couple of coins to my stylus head. Problem solved! #oldskool

The fact you can’t die ‘between’ sessions unless you can write post-mortem is the kind of lyrical precision I’d expect from Archer’s publisher.

I’ve cancelled my membership of the Green Party. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Cake at the Roundhouse was a laugh. Oddest moment - a cover of War Pigs!

Terrific band names here.

Bailed on the ‘Mary in the Junkyard’ gig at Heaven, London. Crazy queues to get in, then so rammed you couldn’t actually see the band. Also one drink per person *in person* bar policy. And the bar had run out of draught beer anyway. Pathetic way to run a venue…

The humour and tone of this movie probably divides audiences, but I loved it. The performances of the lead actors are just fab and the Scottish island location is right up my street. Go see. #film #amwatching boxd.it/gykCVN

I’m probably being a bit thick here but why not tax the rich pensioners through their private pensions and properties to pay for the poor pensioners who are trying to live off the state pension alone? #triplelock

Will be sorry not to see him outside the Directors’ Entrance having a sneaky puff on a cig before going in. He’ll be missed. Decent fella #ncfc

This movie hasn’t aged particularly well in terms of what’s supposed to be funny. But Caine and Kingsley going for the laughs are both extremely watchable. #amwatching #film boxd.it/guIFIz

Barry Adamson. I spent hours learning all the bass lines on The Correct Use of Soap. Live he was always cool and correct - new wave with Magazine and then something more spiky and weird with the Bad Seeds. And his album Oedipus Schmoedipus is one of the all time greats.

Very much enjoying listening to Manchester City fans expressing surprise and sorrow that their team may have been cheating for the last ten years. WHO KNEW?! www.nytimes.com/athletic/704...
