Waking up to this every morning will never get old ❤️

It's absolutely mad how you can let the work carry you on auto-pilot if you allow it. To combat this, on Friday I blocked out my calendar for the week ahead and productivity has been through the roof. Good meaningful work done on things I've "not had the time for" in ages.

Ratcliffe is an absolute specialist in failure. Cutting free sandwiches for staff and concessions for kids, meanwhile making blunder after blunder in the boardroom at 10x the value. I hope we get relegated just to knock his gross ego down a peg: www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

Germany (like the UK) must get this right now to sack off the far-right once and for all. It's not hard to see why people are shifting to the right. Especially here in the UK where nothing works anymore. Make people's lives better and enjoy power. It's not difficult.

A collection of ciders from the weekend. - Black rat: very rarely buy from a can in pub. This one was average and out of date! - Black dragon (I think): gosh one of the best ciders I've had in years. - Henneys: Very sharp, but so average. - Cornish orchards: Dry and delicious.

Being introverted and having moved, moved, moved and moved again I basically have the tiniest pool of friends imaginable. But those tiny number of friends I do have are the best of friends.

Good morning from Penzance! Where the sun is being an absolute treat.

The Rest is History is maybe the best podcast ever made. Their ability to blend tragedy, humour, intrigue all in an accessible format is something for educators everywhere to aspire to. Just finished learning about the horrors in the Congo. Abysmal. Definitely not on the UK curriculum.

My goal is to be a level of successful and famous whereby if my children became successful and famous nobody could accuse them of nepotism by being related to me.

One thing that gripped me when I first encountered lean is the idea that everyone is a "process improvement engineer". It fits in with my experience in my career that job titles are meaningless. We're all here to deliver value to the student and we shouldn't be constrained by our job role.

Good news: The Internet unexpectedly started working again! Bad news: Call of Duty has a 42GB update. When will 2025 just end.

Trying to put into words my frustrations with BT this week... Internet went down Sunday night and had to wait till Monday to 'speak' to someone. They basically told me to try turning the router on and off again which obviously I did already having used an electronic device before in my life. (1/?)

Got one of my "boring business books" for my birthday. Anyone who knows me will know I've been going through a right nerdy lean phase at the moment... so pleased to be able to finally chomp through this!

Alana is listening to a podcast with Jamie Oliver. Doesn't she know he's every 90s kids first real enemy?! #giveUsOurSausageRollsBack

I knew I was working class when it took me 23 years to encounter pastrami. Otherwise known as the posh man's corned beef.

Quote from The Apprentice tonight: Alan Sugar: Don't talk to me about boat hooks. I've had more boat hooks than you've had hot dinners. Lol what?

People need to stop aspiring to work at shitty companies like Meta. It's the same story time and time again.

I'm a bit late to this. But the whole condoms being sent to Gaza, Mozambique AND NOT Gaza, Palestine goof... is hilarious and peak Musk demo-ing his pure brainless incompetentence.

Jude Bellingham is absolute box office. A proper menace, real heel potential. Thank God he's English 😆❤️

Currently doing my 10,000 steps every day. Trying to best last years record of 117 days in a row. It's genuinely scary how few steps you can do working from home.

I'm trying to eat healthier and not drink at home. No lie, today I picked up and put down a wedge of brie 3 times in Co-op. Self control wins this time...

I recently became responsible for the text editor in our Moodle instance. A seemingly mundane assignment. But surprisingly interesting and a great way to get stuck into lots of different products/user needs/administration settings.

If I was Donald Trump what would be my "replacing paper straws with plastic ones?" in my line of work? Binning off email reactions and asking everyone to acknowledge my emails with "read"? I do maybe hate email reactions as much as I do paper straws tbh.

About to watch The Brutalist. Did you know it's so long that it has an intermission. If your film is so long it needs an intermission. You need to make some cuts.

All I want in life is for Keith Brymer Jones to look at something I've made, put his arm around me and say: "Well done lovey, it's brilliant" As he wipes away a single tear.

I'm confident there's no hope for society as people can't even run without looking at what's ahead of them. Another broken arm narrowly avoided this morning.

Finished my annual rewatch of Fresh Meat. The scene at the end where Josie visits all the empty bedrooms hits right in the feels. If I could go back to a time it would be 2013, moving to Plymouth and doing university all over again 😭.

Really the level of respect I have for anyone out there studying whilst working a full-time job is unmatched. I salute you 🫡 ...from one exhausted student to another.
