I know today is Thursday. In fact I’ve known all day. This is a New Year breakthrough

The New Year question that would challenge the finest minds

Apparently the menu choices today are ‘whatever’s in the frigging fridge’

Helmsley today -

I miss the boy bands. The catchy music and the moves

Very excited. An afternoon of beer and giggles with a couple of important people in Teesside who became friends. They’re coming across to Stokesley to see me. So looking forward to it. Know who your friends are and look after them. Know who the transactional contacts are too.

This is the polling data we need.

Christ. This risible nonsense again. Sadly a subject I’m all too aware of

Lads! If we could get the Battle Of The Somme over by about 5 it would be appreciated. Need to get home for tea and then watch Boro play Dirty Leeds.

Due to the awful weather today I’m afraid I’m not going to be sending Christmas cards this year. Or ever.

On my run this morning just passed an old bloke in gloves, woolly hat and shorts. Daft old get. We both thought.

FRIDAY!

Hi I’m mental!

Ever since Labour won the GE the days have got shorter and shorter. The nights longer and longer. A time of darkness. Coincidence?

Unfortunately- and I don’t know why - but I started the day by looking at LinkedIn. First post was someone calling themself ‘a straight shooter’ And I deserved that. Going for a Run Of Penance now.

A glorious evening in Guisborough tonight with the old school chums. So looking forward to seeing Dave who has just returned from a 6 month round the world holiday. That he didn’t shut the frigg up about before he went. I’m hoping he’s extraordinarily depressed to be back.

Greg Wallace announces he’s joining Reform.

Someone has messaged me to say they have got me a Christmas present. It’s of no monetary value but is unique and they hope I’ll like it. I’ve responded that if it cost nothing they can shove it.

New favourite crisp. You can’t beat it so don’t try

Proper miserable Boro fans will only be thinking one thing right now. Latte Lath will be off in the January transfer window.

Post you from a different era. Dubai 1989

I have a LinkedIn connection request from Jason King. One for the kids there. I’ll ask which department he’s in when we speak.

Please spare a thought for James Dyson, the Brexit-voting billionaire who bought up 33,000 acres of farmland to avoid tax then moved his business to Singapore. He's the real victim here.

Made one of these. Can and will be more comprehensive - but spent quite a while looking for people who don’t yet seem to be on here and I *now need to do some work*, so if you are here and I’ve not yet included you, apologies, shout me and I’ll add go.bsky.app/Ka8yH45

The best post-election political analysis I’ve seen.

Quote post with a picture of yourself and show these newbies who they’re dealing with.

I reckon Boro could take the rest of them on here in a drinking contest. I’ve noticed a lot of the Teesside drunks have opened accounts in the last couple of days.

Chippy tea tonight. Mentally the countdown has already started

This place will have made it when a Conservative politician complains to an employer about a post. They established a very smooth operation on Twitter.

I’m sure Steve Clarke is a Teessider. His permanent air of gloom is magnificent. Always looks and sounds like he’s just lost his last fiver
