Watching all those at Glen Hansard’s funeral ending ‘the gig’ with a version of Bob Dylan’s “Forever Young”. Cue many social media accounts in the hours ahead to lead with click baiting “Bono leads mourners at funeral” headlines…

Everton shareholder, a title these days about as useful as a eunuch in a knocking shop! Loves music - oh yes! Passionate on a variety of topics, but being grounded in life: we're all human. In the words of Terry Hall, "love, love, love" xxx
Call me a cynic but what's the odds on no deal happening between Iran and the US before the mid term elections? Why would the Iranians give Trump a smidgeon of light to 'claim' some sort of victory beforehand? Time's on their side. They've history in this particular field...

Wonderful to see the crowds they're getting at Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann in Belfast. Looks fantastic. Begrudgers firmly put in their place by people, one and all, out there enjoying the music and the craic! #FleadhCheoil26
It's my Mam's anniversary today, 13 years now. Too young, only 67, Alzheimer's.. On the day she died, one of my sisters swore she was going to put on a gig, for the people who cared for her. She did. The National Concert Hall. Sold out. Here, two sisters, two nieces.. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OajU...

I’ve said it before, that I like to keep an occasional eye and ear on the dreadful GBeeBees news channel when home on a break. So, here we have a bad news story about football… Wait for it! WAIT FOR IT!!! 🤣
I’m stunned….and gutted….hearing the news about Glen Hansard being killed overnight in a motorcycle crash in Dublin. What a talent. Such sad news.
Hyde United to move, with haste, with a late bid....... Bring a Tiger home!

I know it's "only" a pre-season game, but still scarred from a pitiful end to last season and abject looking in all pre-season effort thus far (we won't reference the need for a right back!), is it already mathematically impossible for Everton to win the League this coming season?!!! 😎 #UTFT
Loving how many across social media are portraying UEFA as some form of sincere moral guardians of the beautiful game!!! "Less worse" than FIFA does not a saint make!
Tuesday nights, away at Stoke......ah yes, Everton are back! #UpTheMisfiringPreSeasonToffees
Whoever’s on ‘music duty’ with the PA at Croke Park this afternoon, take a bow… Playing “To Win Just Once” by Galway band The Sawdoctors….as neighbours Mayo seek to end a 75 year drought for an All Ireland football win! #GAA #SamMaguire
Does anything match the love for your dog? Our fella Harvey is at the stage of life now where he’d give Shane MacGowan a run for his money on the tooth count, but he remains adorable. And cuddly. Though I do hate when they start to look their age. Dogs are for loving and nowt else! #DogsOfBluesky
The scenes at the top of Alpe d’Huez, the closing stages in today’s Tour de France - sheer bloody lunacy! Total chaos and without a thought for the cyclists!

Last day away on a little break out in the Spanish sunshine - first year ever without any Ross O’Carroll-Kelly madness, but thoroughly enjoyed this, a nice little find at our local Recycling Centre a few weeks back. Highly recommend.
Bezos looking to buy a stake in LFC?! Shanks would’ve loved that…
Breaking News: Peter Reid announced as new Chancellor of the Exchequer in Andy Burnham’s cabinet reshuffle.
So, c’mon….where’s the clip of Andy Burnham walking up Downing Street, with Z Cars ringing loudly?! #UTFT #NSNO #EVERTON #G7NilEVERTONTwo
You absolute star @reid6peter.bsky.social - that’s how to welcome a mate! #Burnham
Sam Neill was being interviewed on an Irish radio station, many years back, and I sent in a text, with a simple request: Could Mr. Neill, for the benefit of all listeners, please bellow "NAZARENE!" out across the airwaves! He did. Don't mess with the anti-Christ!
Forty four years ago today........which is kind of scary in its own way!!! Superb debut album from the Cocteau Twins!
Who'd 've thunk, eh? Rugby League games played on a Saturday afternoon at Hill Dickinson. Rugby Union game played on a Saturday afternoon at Hill Dickinson. Even Preston have a Carabao Cup game played on a Saturday afternoon, at Hill Dickinson! What chances Everton with a game on a Saturday there?!
