Brave move to release Paddington in Peru without ideas or jokes or pace.

Repost with the first album you bought with your own money.

Arsenal lost, Dartford lost (for the first time in 21 matches), two out of three potential buyers of our house cancelled their viewings, my hip hurts a bit after parkrun and I've got a half-marathon next week. This is why I drink.

More serious matters aside, that's an impressive range of beers Zelenskyy's had on tap.

A little point, but Rick Buckler's breakneck drum rolls on Town Called Malice were the most exciting thing I heard in my first 10 years on Earth.

Many true things from @theguyliner.bsky.social. Quite happy with my two days a week in the office (quiet reading time on the commute with noise-cancelling earphones) but that's ON MY OWN TERMS. substack.com/@theguyliner...

Frankenstein's Arsenal up and running.

Keen lip readers would've seen Merino saying, "I'm up front!" No time for character analysis, man. #LEIARS

Not been much offside training in Dubai. #LEIARS

It's the major new release of the week. The death of Britpop, the apotheosis of Big Beat, the arrival of Billie, the strange continuing presence of Kula Shaker.

What do we reckon? Trossard's hamstring to go twang before or after 60 mins?

Brighton fans' commitment to booing Cucurella is something to behold. At first I forgot he'd played for them, just thought it was a natural response. #BHACHE

The Conservative spokespeople who feel compelled to pronounce on the BBC's Rachel Reeves "exposé" need to wind their necks in and remember just how recently the scale of their self-serving rapacity and culture war toxicity would have rendered something like this not even deserving of a footnote.

What's all the fuss? I thought Liverpool had already won the league.

Looking forward to seeing just how rush-goalie David Raya can get.

Amazing they can't see this. Not just cruel and immoral – stupid as well.

Stop me rewinding the Serena Williams bit in Not Like Us.

Musk always looks like a 53 year old man who pretended to be 10 by writing with his other hand to win a Going Live competition to go to America to meet New Kids on the Block.

The big football news of the night was Dartford failing to win their 11th league match on the spin. Chichester were solid, although Jeremiah Pinder hit the post in the 93rd minute. Oh well, still top. The real crushing blow was the bar being closed when I went to return my glass and get my quid.
