Seeing as it's #worldbookday I've been buying some books. The Man in the High Castle by Philip K. Dick and On the Road by Jack Kerouac so far...

Why does no one ever need rubber bands anymore? There's always used to be a need, even if for an elastic band shooter. No one makes them anymore

Be nice to see cricket commentary which describes stuff as opposed to “you cannot do that” and “what have we just seen?”

I don’t think there’s a better sports writer around at the moment, @jonathanliew.bsky.social really does nail a match report

My water bill has just gone up 40% from last year. It's increased more than 100% since 2020. Meanwhile there is sewage in the street and the road has been closed for two years thanks to #thameswater

Hard agree. Brady is levels below Tony Romo. Did little more than state the bleedin’ obvious throughout the whole game

This by @lexytopping.bsky.social is beautifully written. In 1989 I watched the cup final hoping Everton would beat Liverpool. Sadly they didn’t, but I’ve had a soft spot for Everton ever since. It’s a grand old team as they say, the end of Goodison Park is sad, may the old lady rest in peace

Martin Keown on comms is a bit 👀 not many Orient fans will ever revere Barry Hearn, Martin. As for your crappy puns…

Another fun statistical contrast for tomorrow: Man City probably spend more on lawyers in a month than Orient do on players in a year

I grew up in East London, Orient were my Grandad’s team and I was a regular at Brisbane Rd in the 90s. If I’d have been cooler I’d have been an O’s fan. This by @tomdaviese17.bsky.social is a super piece about a wonderful club. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

I sure as hell wouldn't ever want to start some sort of pile on, but #6Music have got it desperately wrong with Nick Grimshaw in the mornings. Please someone think again... #BBC

Cars have killed somewhere in the region of 80 million people since invention, but somehow people still manage to get more annoyed with cyclists.
