Dunelm car park in the pissing rain. San Francisco this is not.

Has Nick Clegg ever been on the right side of an argument? If you look up venal in the dictionary, it’s just a picture of him.

Any builders out there looking for a USP, try: Turning up when you say you will. Pretty much unused by any of your competition and a guaranteed crowd pleaser. You can have that. Give it a go. 👍

Against my principles I went to the Brewdog complex in Waterloo to watch the football with (mostly media) pals. All I can say is that if that had existed in the 90s / 00s, every media leaving do would have been there based purely on the fact that all the toilets are lockable cubicles. 😐

I’m having trouble understanding those intelligent enough to realise what’s happening in the US is bad, yet seem hell bent on voting for the same thing here, like it’s different. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Had a vivid dream I was back in San Francisco. Woke up and I wasn’t. Took a while for the brain to catch up. 😵‍💫

Sunderland. Wow!

Just remember that when you leave a corporate job, absolutely everything that kept you awake, you missed family occasions for, the bullshit politics - they are all immediately irrelevant. None of it matters. No one gives a fuck. You’re free. Remember that. (Ideally before you leave).

The start to Final Destination 2 is up there.

I loved living in a country 🇺🇸 where the supposed liberals in power were so ineffectual that fascists got in, that I’m going to do it again. 🇬🇧 Yay!

Bought myself a set of Japanese kitchen knives as a treat for my return. Cut myself 3 times already. Lethal.

Who the fuck is the presenter on Paramount? She can barely speak English. She’s English too.

Always thought Mount was over-rated but Utd have ruined him.

Words I’ve rarely said together. Come on Spurs!

Hundreds of buttons on my new microwave. Use 4. Increments of 30 seconds / Start, Stop and Open.

I regard extended Indian families at airport security the same way the childless regard infants. Fuck. Here we go.

No. I’m not downloading more US TV streaming apps to my IPad with a US credit card and a VPN for buttons so I have US TV in the UK. How dare you.

Sent an urgent letter priority from California to a building society in the UK. Had a note saying Royal Mail couldn’t deliver. It’s addressed to an office. They went after office hours. “nO one tHERe to sIgN” They’d had it from 10am. Fuck me.

Starmer’s managed to unite the country. Everyone thinks he’s a dick. The left hate him, the centre won’t vote for him again and the right will never vote for him no matter how much he fawns to them. A disaster.

In advertising and marketing?

So much racism out there and blaming immigrants for everything. Voting for Brexit to stop brown and black people coming to the UK was like banning cats to get rid of dogs. Then the lack of cats meant the Govt. brought in more dogs, and then you start blaming the dogs for it. Morons.

Someone wrote on here that a cat that doesn’t puke should be invented. I think about this every day.

Got the latest Airpods today after using $20 pairs that I thought were fine. Blimey. Different gravy.

Wonder who Arsenal will blame for this.

Sporting it is not

My hero

“Ref, you suck” is as rude as it gets here. My use of the word fuck as punctuation is not ideal.

This time next week I’ll be in Reading. Who says you can’t have it all. 😐

Last trip into the city for the play offs. A balmy 75 degrees, a cold beer by the bay in a pub-like saloon in Dogpatch. Not gonna lie, I’ll miss this place. Love San Francisco.

Mark Zuckerberg says AI is better at marketing than the average marketer. Decades of people entering marketing with zero formal training, yet still getting promoted with no understanding of the basics. Mark Zuckerberg says AI is better at marketing than the average marketer No shit.

I’m obviously a foreigner but isn’t the Electoral Register basically DEI for white people?

British Gas informed me that despite being on a fixed rate, based on usage in my house they’re putting my direct debit up The house is empty. No power is being used. Meter readings sent saying as much. Wow.
