It's a day for upgrades today: - upgrading dry cough mixture to chesty cough variant - upgrading paracetamol to ibuprofen because my chest hurts from yesterday's coughing 3rd lurgh within 2 months. Sense of humour failed.....

Hello! It doesn’t cost anything to repost but it helps me spread the word about my small business. My online shop is full of bold & colourful prints, homewares and cards. I’m also available for freelance design work and art licensing. gailmyerscough.co.uk

I missed this earlier today. What a pie. I'd happily pay postage for a slice to be sent up.

"Wilcox's view may hold more sway with Sir Jim Ratcliffe." Words to chill the bones of every Utd fan. Two of the main problems right there.

🎶 We're going down with the City Down with the City 🎶

Blimey, this is a big one down near me. A fortunate angle to have fallen at, all things considered.

This is a shocking video in emphasising just how depleted a major reservoir is.

This is an absolute doozy, cooked up on Wrong St by Mr Wrong. Make sure to then watch the TOTP performance in the replies. It banged then, it absolutely still bangs now.

Such a terribly sad story. Makes me wonder a bit if some public information films on dangers of water are merited, when you have stories like this & all the tragic deaths in water during the heatwaves. I've a few experiences of being protected from strong currents & they've always stuck with me.

In other news, this is now the 3rd bug I've had in about 7 weeks. Reckon I might usually get 3 in a year so this stretch is getting really bloody tedious.

Lovely scene to wake up to this morning, can't foresee any problems today.

The Andromeda Galaxy, low in the sky over New South Wales, Australia.

It's a bit blowy out, gang. And Cheshire is far from the worst of it.

Gilet? The best a man can get.

This reminds me that we can be certain the Man Utd squad aren't using performance-enhancing drugs

Just seen and watched a couple of trailers for this forthcoming Paul Van Dyk session and what a feeling for connoisseurs of the Roland 303. (Can only find FB/Insta links sadly) cc: @brokenbanker.bsky.social www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...

Full house parkrun kit this morning - gloves, buff and.... sunnies! Glorious morning for it and the bracing cold lung filling...

Mine was 1 month aged 19 at a chateau in Normandy. The guy I shared a room & job with made it very plain he didn't like me (it was mutual when I realised what an arse he was) & the woman running it saw a schoolgirl called Bianca & reputedly said "She's called Bianca but she's black." No thanks.

Well, this is shit. Watched him for the last couple of seasons at Sale and 31 is no age at all. www.skysports.com/rugby-union/...

This is such great news. What a wonderful prospect if it can be developed further

Leaving the driving home shenanigans aside, President Obama was very good to listen to as you'd expect. I trust @cavandy.bsky.social approves

Tonight really was a night for cockwombles on the roads, undertaking the move preferred. Featuring one prize chump in a Cayenne who stopped in the outside lane of a dual carriageway because I flashed him for being an arse. (Shouldn't have stooped I know, but what an ass hat)

How an accelerating Earth led experts to adopt the leap hour

And I'm guessing it's Dem supporters who are outside the Co-op Arena right now helping Americans to vote from here before seeing the OG speak

Always happy to outperform my Google maps xG by 9 minutes 💪 (and legally)

This is a good article - a bit strange that the BBC has picked it up over 2 years after it appeared in The Times, but worthy of a read nonetheless: The F1 pit stop that helped save lives - www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formul...

Excellent work by Lincoln City to get two players sent off inside 23 minutes against the Hammers 👏

According to this, Luke Shaw missed the Spurs game with an injury. Which must be news to Rodrigo Betancur, who was sent off for attempting to break his ankle and then headbutting him.

Seems I wasn't the only middle-aged man to stick on spikes and venture back into the world of cross-country racing after a few decades last weekend. However, 1 of us is a much more accomplished runner than the other & has also written engaging books on running. I can dream of the top 50%....

I’m so sorry, I completely forgot to tell you at the beginning of the month that the UK Kindle edition of How To Be A Domestic Goddess (the title is ironic or, rather, just camp, not a tradwife manifesto) is at the ludicrously low price of 99p all October! I’m afraid this applies just in the UK.
