Watching Tron Ares.
Just why did they think making this film was a good idea?
It is so bad I just cannot switch it off! 😁

Right, the sun’s out for what feels like the first time in weeks, time for a long walk.

I thought that there were so many bad things being reported from the USA that they could not all be true. Having recently heard from an American friend (who is seriously only staying in the country because of her daughters) I now realise that most, if not all, of the things are probably true.

I should be posting about food but I can’t. Food is my passion & sharing food, my passion with others is the best, happiest thing I can do. But today? Today my country is on fire, taken over by a fascist dictatorship terrorizing, killing civilians. It. Must. Be. Stopped. I can’t do anything else.

What is happening in Minneapolis is truly horrific. I really feel for the people being targeted and the rest of their community trying to protect them and themselves.

Watching the #SaintsFC game and something struck me. I didn’t renew my season tkt this season.
I had one for nearly 30 years.
Did I hear anything from the club asking me why?
Did I heck.
Such poor fan engagement these days.
(To be clear, it was primarily because I was moving to Cornwall)

I’ve seen quite a few fans of @psbhq.bsky.social moaning about the venue for this Sept’s special show. I think I get most of the criticism but J has explained the rationale behind the decision, and you do not have to go. Seems a sensible choice for the band to me.

First home made pizza in the new house and oven. Bit undercooked in the middle (couldn’t find the pizza stone!) otherwise not too bad. 5/10.
