Ran a mountain marathon aged 12, which is the pinnacle of my sporting achievements. Asks why a lot. Views are my own, not yours.
Ah no, what a great player he was.

I’ve fond memories of school lunches at the Yoraths when there was school dinner strikes in the 80s, with his late son Daniel. RIP.

Leeds Utd become only the second team in Premier League history to lead a game three times and still lose.

The first time was also Leeds Utd, back at Spurs in November 2022, when we also lost 4-3.

It would have helped if we’d had a goalkeeper. You don’t score 3 away and lose. Not good enough, and you could see it coming. #lufc

Interesting tactics tonight from #lufc. Score, concede equaliser, then forget how to play football entirely.

Apparently we’re now going to put “spades in the ground™️” regardless of the cancellation of the West Yorkshire mass transit.

Bonkers.

Climate change signals this week, a couple of weeks from Christmas:

I post this on social media every year.

Even though I'm in a much better place than I was 8 years ago this is still a time of year that I endure rather than enjoy.

I'm sure I'm not alone so just be mindful that it is a tough time for a lot of people
