Jam Donut, lover of books, owner of tats, sock wearer. Best friend is a dog.
After what was an eternity,
I’m finally on leave.
The rest of the month off,
To do nowt until Christmas Eve.

Then I’ll dad down to the shops,
For some panicky last minute shopping.
And wonder why I left it so late,
Instead of distraught flapping and stropping.

Just sa a reel on Instagram where someone called themselves a “Professional Eater.”
I mean, like everyone who eats is a professional eater. Unless, she’s some sort of cannibal who only eats professionals.

Here’s some Bruce to start the day. Look how handsome he is. Those of you who have followed Bruce’s story since he was a puppy, would you believe he’s FIVE now? Time is madness.

So I win the last Pinch Punch First Of The Month No Returns to take this year’s championship 8-4. Mrs B is so angry at her performance she returned anyway.

Another fantastic Letters Live done at the Royal Albert Hall. Highlights were Benedict Cumberbach reading a particularly graphic letter of complaint to the NTL cable company, Michael Palin reading a Spike Milligan missive, and Simon Amstell with a supper funny letter to his mum. Roll on the next one

I’m off to see Letters Live tomorrow, the 4th time I have seen the event in 2 ys. You may think I’m obsessed, I am. After my cancer 2 years ago mentally I was in the bin. We went to this event and, it may sound sugary but it’s not, this event played a major part getting me out of my funk.

Right I've decided that as I'm at NEARLY 4K followers I'm going to do a thread of all my books, but instead of covers you can have gifs with the same vibe

Morning. I’ve been out. It’s wetter than an otter’s pocket out there. If you’re going out, wear a car.

I can’t speak for anyone else but I’m celebrating international men’s day with Lego.

Got out of bed to find it’s colder than a seal’s arsecrack which means sadly, the heating has gone on.

This one is an out of season and unexpected tornado hitting a shed filled with old cathode ray tellies somewhere in Kansas.

I’m off to see Nick Offerman in Bristol tonight. No idea what to expect. Stories and anecdotes, maybe some songs I suppose. Anyway, if any of my bristol pals are going and want to avoid me, I’ll be the overexcited middle aged bearded toddler with a smile wider than the Avon Bridge.

I’m watching Bambi: The Reckoning. Bambi sees his mum killed by hunters then grows up, finds a mate, has a kid, and ho are both killed by a truck. Bambi then drinks radioactive water, mutates into Hulk-Deer and GETS REVENGE ON HUMANS.
It’s so bad it’s ace.

Today’s coffee art is a polar bear’s bum crack.

Been practicing my coffee art. This is a penguin that got hit by a snowmobile and covered in snow.

Can I do a shout out to find the old crew still missing? Could you reshare this if you knew me as L3GSV on Twitter to see if I can be found by any old friends here who don’t recognise me!?
