Behind the Scenes fact - the Konstas line was written back in the BGT when someone asked me to have a go at writing an introduction to Konstas in the style of the Smudge Diaries. I honestly liked how it came out so much that I just went back and added some more 2025 brainrot before recyclng it.

Hopefully it won’t disappoint too much!!

You are far, far too kind! Also, thank you so much for keeping the twist for this set of Ashes Diaries a secret, after I blabbed about it after the podcast recording because I was just desperate to tell someone what I had planned :)

This is also directly linked to me not wanting to get up at 5:00 on a Sunday morning so that I can avoid any mega spoilers.

Also this will be the last new content from Steve Smith Diary Updates for a while. A lot of reasons behind it, but one of the main ones is that I can't quite comprehend writing them without David Warner. He's one of cricket's greatest characters, and he'll be sorely missed in the international game.

Also worth mentioning that it appears twice in The Talons of Weng-Chiang, where it’s used to describe literally the exact character you’d expect.
