Wordle in two! 😊

Neil and Martin’s Bon Voyage. U TV. Older men behaving badly en France. Great programme , especially if you were fans of the 90’s sitcom. 📺

Got today’s Wordle in two!

A photo cos I like it. By pfd.photographs.

Just watched the funniest Come Dine With Me ever! Blue chicken and a grasshopper dessert! 🤣

A heron at St. Andrews Botanics. And my resident photographer working hard to capture it.

Uh uh

Ambush in Washington

#Channel4. Some C4 programmes after 8 seem ok but I tend not to watch. However the trailer and the title Go Back to Where You Came From is sickening. Would have expected more from a channel priding itself on diversity of content. Disgusted and I’m put off watching any C4 content.

Made me laugh!

Very disappointed (again) with BBC. News item focussing on what PM said about extreme right wing views on his performance as DPP instead of why he was speaking i.e. NHS plans and targets. Think will stop watching.

Victoria Derbyshire- thread too long to repost but worth a read. Knocks right wing here and across the pond on the head.

Only time I’ll mention Musk on here Headlines tell me he’s trying to bring down Starmer. Please don’t fall for it.🙏 Don’t give him any traction on here. 🙏

Turns out you can be the richest man in the world *and* so cravenly hungry for adulation that, when all else fails, you’ll beg for it from the very worst of your fellow humans. Musk’s interest in the U.K. is directly proportionate to the volume of our far right Twitter. The ultimate simp symbiosis.

Well it’s all over for another year. All we need now is for the frost, wind and snow to go. Happy 2025!

Listening to pre match local derby commentary in Glasgow. Appalling comments- no wonder the supporters hate each other.

So I’m watching Elton John on Sky. He has some audience members on stage. Two of them are filming him on their phones. Completely missing the actual experience. 🤷

Late to the Gavin and Stacey party. Great acting and nuances between all characters. Actors can only act well if they have a good script to go with. And this script was fantastic! Tidy!

#RoyalMail- let down by you again. Time slot given - no parcel delivered. Logged on to app- they are really busy and can’t respond. Atrocious!

Media making too much of Chris McCausland being emotional. Of course he is. But focus on the joy he has brought to himself, Diane and the viewers. Such emotions are human. The media should not be highlighting that over his achievement.

If Chris and Dianne don’t get to the strictly final I’m not watching it next week. Wonderful partnership and he is what strictly is all about, never mind that he can’t see what’s he and everyone else is doing.🎩 off!

Anstruther

Just finished watts Man in the Inside. Comedy with Ted Danson. Appealing to my age group. Worth a watch.

Cast and crew of EK Rep Theatre’s #OnceuponaFairytale are now enjoying two nights rest before beginning week 2 on Wednesday. #panto 🎭

Loch Etive June 2023 By Paul Deacon

Some men, quite rightly, are in the media for their attitudes and actions. But let’s not forget the kind, thoughtful, faithful (to name a few adjectives) men who are in the majority but right now are trying to navigate the whole ‘men are bad,’ agenda. My partner is one of them. Just saying.

The Blocks. St. Monans.

A kind of Steinbeck theme in this photo by Paul Deacon.📸 Think it was taken in Arizona a few years back.

Keir's Starmer's spokesperson asked if the PM is "concerned" about being at the G20 rather than being in Downing St for the farmers protest tomorrow Meet for key discussions with world leaders, or hang around to hear Jeremy Clarkson outside your house abusing you through a megaphone. A real dilemma

No matter what people think about #strictly Chris and Dianne’s partnership and performance bring out the best of humanity with just about everyone rooting for them. Strong emotions all round.

Wasn’t a great Twiteratti but decided to deactivate. I have 2 accounts somehow. Deleted one but when deleting second one I’m told wrong password. But they’re identical. 🐟?

Why a 76 year old man with literally millions, is opening food banks on his birthday and maybe a big thing of it just baffles me!
