I'm here for dad jokes, TV chat, a little politics, food envy, and a lot of cat spotting. DMs open.

Let’s start an over 30 selfie thread ✨

I don't remember why I took this photo, but someone clearly deserved my "sure Jan" face.

Everything about this is *so* American.

Any ideas what this is meant to be a drawing of on the label of this Japanese soda bottle?

Didcot's Christmas lights are pretty good this year.

Honestly, I'm not being sarcastic - this is just the only serviceable photo I took of them while I was out this evening.

I've only owned 3 cars:

2002 Toyota Yaris
2013 Seat Ibiza
2017 Audi Q2

The Yaris gained a yellow go-faster stripe/dent down the passenger side when the other half scraped it on a pillar while he was moving house for us single-handedly. Didn't bother getting it repaired...
Introduce yourself with 5 cars you’ve owned.

1983 VW Polo MK2
1990 Peugeot 309
2007 Peugeot 206
2013 VW Polo MK5
2023 Toyota Yaris

The Yaris is the fastest and most powerful of the lot!

2006 VW Golf Mk5
2010 Volvo C30
2013 Mercedes SLK250d
2015 Mercedes C220d... which continues to ferry me around today.

Seeing as it's the first day of the UK championship, my worst snooker joke:

What did the snooker referee say when he walked into the loo at a Weatherspoons?

That's foul and a miss.

Further evidence that I'm very much in touch with the zeitgeist and pop culture trends:

I learned about the latest dance craze via the Prime Minister.

My wife got really upset when I brought home an assortment of dried fruits..

Obviously, one of us doesn't understand the term "Date Night".

That's it: I'm unplugging and going to live under a rock somewhere far away from anything resembling a computer.

Ok I'm not really, but this is just gross. And the irony of it being a "gospel" album named "Faithful Soul". It's a bit on the nose.
An AI-generated Christian artist named Solomon Ray has taken the gospel music world by storm after topping the iTunes and Billboard charts with his album “Faithful Soul.”

I just had a conversation about politics and the budget with my Daily Mail reading mother and I think I managed to turn around her opinions on a few things. I am in shock.

I've been watching Pluribus for 20 minutes and I'm pretty sure it's not for me...

Ahhh that "life flashing before your eyes" moment when you start choking on something and you're home alone for the next six hours...

Watching a TV program with people in the Foreign Office.

Other half: "that doesn't look like the Foreign Office in the Diplomat."
Me: "it doesn't look like the Foreign Office that we VISITED IN PERSON either."

I've found a day and a half of holiday allowance I'd forgotten about that needs to be used by the end of the year.

What should I do with it? Silly or serious suggestions appreciated.
November 25, 2025 at 5:52 PM
I suppose that means I won't be able to go for a lunch time run like I planned. Oh well, I am *truly* heartbroken.

We've got a nice new duvet coming tomorrow and I'm in the unusual position of looking forward to going to bed on a night in the future rather than tonight.

I was qualified, I interviewed, I got offered a job, and it allowed me to fulfil my main goal of moving out of my parents' house.
