Frequently confusing irreverent with irrelevant. Also ethical investment (not allowed to call it sustainable), employee ownership, running and general sports burble

Meanwhile, having long thought that the TMO system in rugby league is head and shoulders above football and rugby union, this is the third match in a row with really poor decisions. And the knock-on call just now is one of the worst decisions you'll ever see at Test (any?) level. #ENGvAUS #Ashes
Who knew that if you play Rugby League international in its Northern heartlands, you'll get a crowd that's up for it and the players will respond? The Wembley crowd was awful last week but this is a proper Test match, on and off the pitch. #Ashes #ENGvAUS
Seems fair, if surprising that they're cheaper than Tinlicker (the dance duo)
How much were EBTG? I was on a presale list for a decent but niche Dutch DJ duo coming to a small venue in Manchester and, well, I was a bit surprised that they started at £40+fees.
Just saw the score and lineup and laughed heartily

My book draft is currently with the editors. While I wait, here are a couple of random* snippets to give you a sense of the vibe! They may or may not survive the edit process. Enjoy! #HowToBuildAUniverse

*I used a random number generator to choose pages, then chose one sentence from each page
🎉 Update from me: I've just sent my editor the first draft of my second book, "How to Build a Universe"! ⚛️ ➡️ 🌌

It's probably still about a year from publication, but even just getting this draft together has been a journey. Really looking forward to sharing more with you! #HowToBuildAUniverse

How long until we have the Remembrance Sun-dae?
We will fight them on the quiches
Just been reading that, dear old Brendan does have form for disappearing in his third season I believe. Fairly blistering response from Desmond, who knows where on the spectrum the truth is? Quite funny all told though
It does seem to like pushing right wing content (sadly believe this is a feature not a bug), I got one a few weeks back which was instantly reported although who knows if anything came out of it
How are you getting on? I always remember watching it for a repeat viewing late on Christmas Eve while I, erm sorry Santa, built my daughter's toy kitchen
It says a lot that Mrs H77, an ICU nurse, has been so impressed by the care given to a family member in the Raigmore (Inverness) ICU that she's going to take ideas back to her unit. A wonderful group of nurses and doctors and great empathy for patients' relatives.

Bravo the NHS.
Yep, a faint whiff of being depressing too, but just have to keep believing that enough people and institutions hold the line
In the office today and I'm pleased to report that the Liverpool fan on the investment desk has taken his medicine in good humour. Nature is healing
Honestly, all the years of piss-taking, the ineptitude..... It's all worth it for glory like that #Amorin
Who robbed the Louvre? Right answers only:
Well I stayed away from their reply so I'm claiming responsibility for the victory 😂

However I'm not responsible for this ridiculous rash of reverse sweeps 😉
I'd like to apologise to ask the England Women's cricket fans, as it seems to have gone pear-shaped since I started watching. Soz.

The absolute best game. Still keep all the game CDs even though the laptops can't play them. Would love a game of Red Alert 2 again
On the plus side, it's a better outcome than I've just seen in catching up on how Sale fared against Saracens today.
Had a very enjoyable trip to Philly in 2017, loved the city. I believe the wide boulevards were a British influence as a key designer was avoiding the issues that caused the Great Fire of London?

Do you know what a group of frogs is called?

AN ARMY
Watford fans grateful their owners are less in the spotlight for a while. Wonder if the Pozzos and Marinakis enjoy debating business strategies over dinner?
