Improbable plots:

'On a routine trip transporting ethically sourced materials in a fully explored part of the galaxy, a competent, well-adjusted crew ignore a mysterious distress call & complete the mission without mishap, receiving their salary as agreed'

Would love to hear others...

‘Bad things awaited people who ignored warning notices in creepy woods. That was the rule - anyone who had ever watched a movie could tell you that.’

Signs I am old

Turn down music to concentrate when parking

Use phone camera to zoom in on tin labels in supermarket

Cannot be arsed with Stranger Things

Yoga hurts

Cannot lie, tuck in my band t shirts

My latest read: "Special Delivery" by @rexburke.bsky.social

Seeking a "military sci-fi" book about a ragtag team on a secret mission? This one's worth a look! 🪐📚💙

Reached an odometer milestone for What Grows From the Dead, my most-rated book of all of them. If you're looking for a funny amateur sleuth mystery set in North Carolina, check it out!

Nasi goreng tonight. The recipe says ‘egg sunny side side up, optional’

Is there any world where a fried egg on top of the rice is not mandatory?

"You are?"
“Thomas Chatwin, Major.”
“You’re kidding me?”
“I’m sorry, ma’am?”
“Your name is Major Tom?”
“I prefer Thomas actually, ma’am.”
Juno looked at him quizzically. “Major Tom. You know, Bowie?”
“Tom Bowie? Can’t say I know the chap, ma’am”

I enjoyed ‘The Hunting Wives,’ ridiculous but well done. And then it does that thing where it doesn’t really end, & we wait to see if they pick up a second season. Just finish the damn story! We want a resolution after devoting 8 hours to it. Leave loose ends, sure. But don’t mess with us like that

Writing the sequel to Special Delivery is giving me difficult-second-album vibes. I'm hoping it's going to turn out to be a Give Em Enough Rope and not This is the Modern World

Growing up in the 1970s, footballers all looked like old men to me. Now they’re all slowly shuffling off the pitch - Martin Chivers and the wonderful Terry Yorath the latest - I realise they were only about ten years older than me at the time
