The media forced (?) to dance to Nigel Farage’s news management tune again.

Turns out, we weren’t the only tour in town. The farewell ride for Cardiff cycling legend Geraint Thomas.
We’re always on the lookout for guides with local knowledge, bike know-how and time on their hands.

I imagine Reform will be relieved to get a bit of media coverage at last today.

Wow. Farage doesn’t get much of this back in the UK.

Raskin: "The dictators of the world have got nothing to fear from this hearing. Republicans called it to attack our democratic allies in Europe. The star witness is not a human rights leader like Navalny, but a far-right pro-Putin politician who leads the UK Reform Party."

Met a British guy today who now lives in Spain and was back home for the first time in a while. Said he was shocked and saddened by the amount of racism being publicly aired in the UK - in marked contrast to what he remembered.

A bad day for the misogynists.

Watching Destination X is like being on a slightly tedious bus trip, where you’re longing for a break at Leigh Delamere services.

Good for you! I’ve been meaning to give that Friends Reunited a go.

Great to see @robphillipshere.bsky.social, who I believe started reporting in the days of leather footballs and supporters’ rattles, embracing the world of the pod.

In the first episode of a brand new podcast, @robphillipshere.bsky.social and Nathan Blake bring you their take on Welsh football, loud and clear.
Have you heard the one about Blakey nearly signing for The Mighty Reds under Kenny Dalglish? @lfcr.bsky.social

The Euros were a great watch - and what characters there are in that England team.

Painful to watch Wales defend so poorly. England toying with them. You get the feeling England could reach double figures if they really wanted to.

A big difference in class watching these two teams. Realistically, I suspect a goal or two is the most we can hope for.
