I walk, and draw and write badly. My hiking journals aren’t very interesting, but they’re very me.

I don’t know why but I just couldn’t get going on my TGOC log until now. I’m finally getting going though. #hiking #journalling #TGOC25
Drawing of the side of a hill with a handwritten journal. 8th May 2025- TGOC25 Day 1: Shiel Bridge > Altbeithe Distance: 22 Km Walkers: Solo Weather: Cloudy. then Sunny. Today's the day- the start of the Great Outdoors Challenge 2025. I began by walking out of the Glen Shiel campsite towards Kintail hodge. Here I met other Challengers having breakfast and signing before the start. I carried on under a cloudy sky until I came to a woman sitting by the path. I needed a drink so I stopped beside her and she explained that she had walked the Affric Kintail Way but her boots were giving her grief so she was taking them off. She then walked away in her socks! I walked to the private bothy and stopped for another drink before crossing the footbridge and beginning the walk uphill. As it got hotter I slowed down and the other Challengers passed me by. It seemed to take hours to get to the plateux, where I stopped for a bite to eat before walking to the Camban bothy. I was tempted to stay but I still had a few kid to Alltbeithe, so I rested a while before continuing down really rough tracks to get to a burn about 1 Km from the hostel. I decided this was enough so pitched by Dave and had my first meal of the TGOC, then bed.

There’s weird and then there’s …this. If you want to know how AI, Silicon Valley, Harry Potter and Ricky Gervais (?? Not something he imagined when he made The Office) are entangled have a listen. And you need the 4 episodes to have a run at it.

All these billionaires will have their consciousnesses uploaded before death. Then the upload company will go bust and be broken up for parts. They'll end up being sold like fairground rides: "🤡 Inhabit Elon Musk's consciousness for five minutes, only $20! You'll laugh at how dumb it is in there! 🤡"

And then add juveniles to the mix. We might not have bears in the UK but NEVER be in the same field as cows with young calves. You just can’t run as fast as them.

me, a non-religious person (closes eyes): I am praying for Dolly Parton. I would like to put in a prayer for Dolly Parton. Make that lots of prayers. I would like infinity prayers for Dolly Parton. Give Dolly Parton unlimited prayers. All the prayers that have ever existed should go to Dolly Parton.

Until Cromwell died, then we asked Charles II back because we decided that we liked Christmas and generally being happy. Bread and circuses always wins.

GNU Jilly Cooper. Jilly and dad were friends and the only person I’ve known to call him ‘Tel’. Hope they’re both having a big drink somewhere.

Listen as the hilarity/horror ratio of the hosts gets reversed as the episodes progress.

...when it breaks.

As an old married person, it's about finding the person you want to fuck up with, and then fix it with, over and over. Marriage is basically a constant cycle of fucking up and fixing it, and then learning from your mistakes and fucking up less over the years...

I’ve been reporting on health insurance denials for more than a year. Last fall, I stumbled across a lawsuit that, with interviews, revealed one insurers’ playbook of secret lists, special deals and lowball payments. 👇

Last fall, Blue Cross got hit with a $421 million verdict after jurors found it defrauded doctors. It was one of the biggest verdicts ever outside a class action - and it revealed the inner workings of how insurers block payments. My latest. www.propublica.org/article/blue...
“Slow Pay, Low Pay or No Pay”
Blue Cross authorized mastectomies and breast reconstructions for women with cancer but refused to pay the full doctors’ bills. A jury called it fraud and awarded the practice $421 million.

To shut down rude behavior instantly, try a simple yet powerful five-word response.
