I’ve been into this podcast for a few years now, and it’s *terrific*. It’s mostly just one guy but it’s really funny and personal and well-written.

My in-laws have Postman Pat on for my daughter and I’m finding it genuinely stressful to watch. Just in case you’re wondering how bad I want out.

Don’t get the whole ‘exercise helps with anxiety’ thing. I’m still worrying, but also I’m out of breath

Just seen one of those lads that chopped down the Sycamore Gap tree. Hopefully the judge goes easy on him for his role in bringing down the Wet Bandits.

It makes me sad that we’ll never see Tony, Pauline and Silvio reacting to the news of the American pope in the office at the back of the Bing.

Just letting you guys know I’m gonna be running my writing retreat/spookhouse again this October. For a reasonable price, you will receive a quiet room to work on your writing, but twice a day I will burst out of the wardrobe and chase you with a chainsaw.

Went to the Rollercoaster Restaurant at Alton Towers last night. It’s your same basic burgers and chips except they feck them at you down some tracks that lead to your table. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I live in Staffs, which now has a Reform County Council. I expect we’ll have our bins emptied exclusively by black and white minstrels and all council employees will have to begin the work day by pledging allegiance to Jethro.

Can’t wait for some of these Reform councillors. “I RECKON WE SHOULD BRING BACK LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR!” “Councillor, this meeting is about potholes.”

We’re back from Easter. Time to spend the week chasing the four (4) organisations that haven’t paid me for events I did ages ago.
