Great fun at #TheBigSwally last night. Awesome range of breweries and beers and managed at least one from every stand! Stuck to thirds!. Some crackers to be had and great food on the go too. Shout out to the awesome #Bia for the haggis and chips and accommodating my request for well cooked chips!🍺🍟

🤣 I needed something on in the background, it was that or a horror and I thought that would make me go to sleep. What a fool! Watched it all!

Sucked into #LoveActually and it's like a warm, friendly place. Interestingly this time in my life I feel drawn to a different character and storyline than the last time I watched it.

I thought 10 minutes on hold with #TSB was bad enough, went to speak to the #CooperativeBank and the automated voice says 60 minutes. What?! I'll try again later for the third attempt for both.

Watching the #NFLInternational #NFLDublin game on TV to see if I can see us in the crowd. Nope. With the terrible picture on the action on #C5 it's hard to see faces in the crowd, I have to wait for official slow motion play to see if there's a chance, those shots are in HD!

While we came from #Edinburgh to the #NFLInternational #NFLDublin game, it was decided that the #NFLExperience would go to Edinburgh. Seems strange to have it the same weekend and so close. Surely when UK or European game isn't on would be the best choice to attract the most fans?

Richard Brunton @pyrolyticcarbon.bsky.social · 29d

I saw three other #Saints fans at the #NFL #NFLInternational #NFLDublin #Steelers #Vikings game. I was surprised and very happy!

Great weekend in #Belfast (avoiding #Dublin price hike) for the #NFL #Steelers vs #Vikings Great to see a game for real. Met some great people and had some awesome breakfasts! Brill train to Dublin. Surprising lack of craft beer! #NFLDublin #NFLInternational

Big day. 133km cycle. Up at 4:15, which is about how much sleep I got! Already shattered. 4:50. Dressed, porridge forced down, ready to gear up the bike, just sitting trying to clear my...head for the impending journey. Cycle to the train, then off to the start line. #CashforKids #Coast2Coast

Richard Brunton @pyrolyticcarbon.bsky.social · Sep 16

This Saturday I am going to be doing, and without the proper training due to injury, 133km coast to coast cycle. Fool!

Watching #MPs in the #HouseofCommons criticising the government over #Mandelson so I presume these same #MPs will not welcome #Trump, will boycott any event for him, and criticise any connection with him too. #PlayingPolitics

As if it wasn't obvious. Now though, we have it confirmed. Time for the UK to cut ties and boycott Israel.

So while the #UKMedia and opposition pressure the government into sacking a man who was friends with #Epstein, they welcome and laud a convicted criminal and proven liar who was friends with, and potentially a partner with, the very same sex trafficker. #Trump shouldn't be welcomed here.

Tories getting irate that a member of the UK government was friends with Epstein and calling for the government to be held accountable. Wait till they hear about the foreign leader they and Labour have been making deals with!

Shocked that the same level of attention isn't given to the school shooting. Mind you "I think it’s worth it...to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the 2nd Amendment to protect our other God given rights. That’s a prudent deal. It is rational" -Kirk
