Did your pre-season prediction have Nuno going to West Ham after Potter’s sacking? Seems like you’re hitting on that.

Now that is an exclamation point from Brentford.

That little shove in the back from Mason Mount there should be a booking.

I was fortunate to be supported by the Charles Sutherland Scholarship to conduct field sampling this summer for an ongoing project on the genetic structure of the cryptic bumblebee Bombus cryptarum.

Eat as many cardamon pastries as you can. Hart bakery by Frederiks Kirk is of particular magnificence.

Colin Deval @colindeval.bsky.social · 26d

Cheers, Kuba! Redid the post because I blew it on the photo upload.

Matchday.

The Arsenal stadium before Arsenal v. Nottingham Forest on a beautiful Saturday.

For the first time in my three plus years in the UK, there are a few tickets available to red members for an Arsenal away match—next Tuesday in Bilbao.
