If I weren't an Ipswich Town Fan I'd probably be a Villa fan. I have lots of mates who are Villa fans and always want them to do well but that's not why.
No. They used to be my subbuteo team when I won the inaugural Paterson League vs brother in 1980/81 and Gordon Cowans snapped his stand. #oddfans

@davidolusoga.bsky.social Just finished catching up with TV series Empire.
Absolutely loved it and made me think a lot about things I thought I was familiar with. Both rightly disturbing and challenging it was also involving and deeply moving.
Thank you. Cannot recommend highly enough.

If someone says "Would you like general anaesthetic for your throat procedure?" The answer is always "Yes, drugs, lots of them please"
It is NOT "No".

Today is World AIDS Day, a day that reminds me of the decades-long fight for dignity, science, and compassion. We’ve come so far because activists, researchers, and communities refused to be ignored.

Announcement time: as you may know, for a few years my wife and I have been creating audio tours of destinations in Andalucía using a great app called VoiceMap.

It’s been going really well, so we’ve decided to branch out with a website for visitors to Andalucía. It’s called Andalucía Bound.

Andalucía Bound
Whether you’re coming to Andalucía for a short break or the road trip of a lifetime, Andalucía Bound will help you plan the perfect journey.
