I was today years old when I discovered you can get packs of four Jaffas as part of a Tesco meal deal. This news is bigger than Christmas.

I have had quite an ordeal with Secret Santa and it has now led me to becoming lost in Hobbycraft in search of a replacement box.

Do you think Christmas gives a significant boost in sales for the tea towel industry?

Looking back on my notes from LFF and it seems I've written "good dog" for about half the films. A good year for canines, it seems.

Have come to the crushing conclusion that I may have to cut out the Phoenix Buchanan reference in my Sunset Boulevard intro...

Just sent off another one of those way overthought, never-going-to-happen interview request emails. Which is very likely the reason no one has said yes to guesting on the podcast for quite some time now. Anyway, shall keep trying (and perhaps not be so ambitious with the next few).

Took a break from LFF by going to see a film.

My interview with @autisticsociety.bsky.social from earlier this year is now up online, with additional questions for World Mental Health Day.

Thanks to them, and Helen Wilson who interviewed me, for reaching out again!

There was a dog in Picturehouse Central and it was intrigued by everyone that walked up the stairs. I wanted to say hello to it, but it looked at me and this is the best day of LFF ever.

That’s right folks, it’s time for another over-rambly, uninformative #LFF thread!

An impromptu pre-LFF trip to see @thehornesection.bsky.social was just the right kind of full-throttle silliness needed before launching just the same way into the festival.

While I don’t have the autistic fascination with trains, I’ve realised that I rather like being in a train station and the process of waiting for one.

Ah, the frantic rush of booking in LFF P&I screenings, how I haven’t missed you.

(Still miles better than queuing for a queue though)
