Watching the ol’ World Championship bowls. Yeah, I know, I’m just so rock ‘n’ roll. The noise that goes off when the shot clock runs out is like a 1970s Ford Cortina’s horn. Horrible, but I suppose at least it keeps the pensioners in the crowd on their toes vis-a-vis dozing off.

That’s the wildest swing of the bat I’ve ever seen from a fortune cookie.

Down to half a pipe of Pringles, a third of an iced fruit cake, approx. 30-40 Matchmakers, two thirds of a canister of Twiglets, a fully intact chocolate orange, half a big bag of counterfeit Frazzles and two derelict gingerbread houses in a state of disrepair.

Watching the ahhrrahs and trying to think of a good darting nickname. So far only ‘The Dood’ or ‘Jester’ spring to mind. Suggestions on a postcard…

Might treat me sen to a good ol’ fashioned lie-in tomorrow. Honestly can’t remember the last one I was in bed past 8am, what with always getting up for work, or parkrun, or junior parkrun.

All I want for Christmas is for everyone in the office to understand the difference between an asterisk and Asterix. Honestly, it’s unbefuckinglievable.

Raising a sausage for dear Wombat tonight. Rest in peace, you lovely man. Had already shopped before work to pick up m’dinner when I got to my desk and read the sad news. It’s like he was guiding me to the toad-in-the-hole section. 😥😔

Carnage at Tesco this morning, even at 8am. Plus I achieved the rare annoyance hat-trick of 1) having to have a bag check, like a common criminal, 2) woman having to come over again to age approve (still not quite sure why), and 3) random contactless refusal so having to manually put card in etc 🙄😵💫

Desperate times. Hitting the five-years-beyond-expiry-date Lemsip until I get the chance to hit the supermarket. Doubting its efficacy after all this time but I’ll take warm and lemony on this rancid day 🤧🤒

If anyone could spare a few ££ to help support a great mental health charity and get me closer to my £500 target for Berlin that’d be fantastic and much appreciated. 🙂👍… www.justgiving.com/page/richber...

There ‘n’ back to York today. Absolutely shitsack weather on both journeys. Collapsed in an exhausted heap from the sheer concentration of after dark driving with it wanking it down most of the way.

Blummin’ eck. Is this typhoon drunk?! It’s weaving all over the shop compared to the last few. Supposed to be looking up tomorrow’s UK weather but I’ve been distracted by this mesmerising website again.

Still working my way through the 80s on my playlist compileathon. Lyrics of Billy Idol’s Flesh for Fantasy are summat else…
“Face to face and back to back // You see and feel my sex attack // Wanna sing it, yeah”
Third line’s a tad jaunty considering the sexual assault trauma preceding it.

Painstakingly working my way through every year from 1975-2025 on Spotify, making playlists from which I’ll select a golden god of a song from each year for my ultimate 50th birthday playlist. I’m on 1979. Twenty days to bosh through 46 years. I *may* have mistimed this.

Still recovering from today’s revelation that 80s balladeer Paul Young was the vocalist on that novelty ‘Toast’ song from the 70s. Mad.

Ok, this seems like madness and although I’m intrigued I’m not prepared to commit to a multipack. It’s got to be rancid, hasn’t it?!

Love most American sports but never really fell for basketball and not quite sure why. Maybe it’s squeaky shoe annoyance. Or the foul/timeout-heavy farce that occurs in the last coupla minutes. Or height envy. Who knows.

Sad times. The toys era is coming to an end as I dust down the Playmobil princess castle, ready for selling. Even sadder times, I just spent three hours sifting through the young’un’s detritus drawers/bags to find half the bits. This was about a quarter of it. Oh, the humanity.

Actually getting to watch some sport of a weekend. Guessing it’s supposed to look like wolves’ ears to reflect the nickname of the team wearing them, but the yellow rugby league men look like they’re wearing blue bikini bras.
