I make a mean haggis spring roll! One year, Burns Night and Chinese New Year fell on the same day and these babies celebrated both of my ethnicities with each mouthfull! 😋

They claim they’re putting personal ambition aside and defecting to Reform to help fix the country.
To stop that pisstaking farce, they should be made to hold by-elections in their constituencies and let the voters decide if that’s ok with them. Please sign.

Finished my last book of the year today, making it 23 read this year. Some of them were outright fluff, but it's been a year so I make no apologies. But some were proper gems, un-put-downable for all the right reasons. Hopefully more of those in 2026. Happy New (reading) year everyone! #BookSky

Started off my Christmas break this morning in style, with the mother of all bacon rolls at www.valvonacrolla.co.uk before hitting their Christmas shop! Home and back in pyjamas by 10.30... #smug

This is hands down my favourite Christmas album of all time 🥰It's the first one I put on to start the season, and the last one I listen to while we pack all the decorations away.

Genuinely magical. Try it.

‘A Charlie Brown Christmas’ is the Only Christmas Album That Gets How Christmas Really Feels
Vince Guaraldi’s alternatively swinging and melancholy jazz soundtrack to the Peanuts special—released 60 years ago this month—is the perfect companion for an emotionally complex time of year.

The benefit of having a friend in Fife is that they bring you presents from Fisher & Donaldson when they visit... There really is nothing quite like toasted butteries 😍

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

One of my favourite films of all time! The rewatch was almost as good as the first watch, seeing just how they pulled it off. I envy people watching it for the first time, and the ride they're about to have.
it’s nicholas van orton’s birthday today…fingers crossed it’s just cake this time🎁

If you're looking for a wee stationery treat and want to support a small UK business then look no further! Gorgeous designs and and the product quality is 👌 #speakingfromexperience
If I’m being honest, I’m feeling pretty crap about my small business.

It’s so bloody difficult at the moment with rising costs, US tariffs, Brexit nonsense and the threat of AI.

My 13 year old nephew wanted to play, so me and @hbbdoesit.bsky.social rolled new toons this morning to game with him. Spot which one is the 13 year old... he -swears- that name was randomly generated 👀 and in Scotland no less!!
