I’ve just read a post from a reform councillor that agreed mostly with my views on education. - we cannot allow lessons to be disrupted by poor behaviour - not every lesson needs to be ‘engaging’ in the sense of being made into ‘a game’.  Just really sensible stuff. I need a lie down.

Rod Liddle - I won’t celebrate death but let’s not rewrite history. He was a horrible bastard.

It’s not the appt I’m worried about it’s the huge line of drongos and pensioners that’s normally out of the door at the pharmacy

Wasn’t going to have a pint at the airport but Laura’s woke up with an ear infection that has to be treated before we leave. Our doctors have got her an appt at the same time that we were due to be heading to the airport. Bloody hell.

Minute Cryptic - 3 August, 2026 "Nothing in vault where gold should be - it's a bit of a shock" (4) 🟣🟣🟣🟣🟣🟣🟣 🏆 0 hints – 1 under the community par (55,465 solvers so far). www.minutecryptic.com?utm_source=s... This was such a clever clue but was too easy to enjoy.

Although 6.20 here is 7.20 in Spain meaning he’ll be ready for a night on the beers after we land.

Harry’s woke up every day recently at 5am which is shite but the positive was going to be that it’d mean his nap fit perfect around our journey to the airport today… he’s just woke up at 6.20!!

Horny individual is hornier, ‘cos drunk (10) Corker of a surface from the guardian quick cryptic.

Harry in bed, football on. Waiting for Laura to get back later after her nail appointment with pizza.

Nursery staff noticed marks from Harry’s jabs yesterday and sent him home. It’s between them and Jordan Pickford on who’s more angry when you ask them to do their jobs 👀

Minute cryptic from 29th July Is killing me. I know what the definition, indicators and fodder are and have worked out what to do but can I find the answer with be remaining letters?! No hope. Not using the hints either as they’ll only tell me what I already know.

I pack quite light. Football shirts and swim shorts for the day which roll up nice and tight. A couple of smart shorts and 5 shirts for night time. Day flip flops and nighttime sandals. Underwear - done.

Me and Harry are sharing a suit case (Laura gets her own) what a Swizz by the travel companies to not include a case with his holiday place.

Taking Harry (13 months old) on holiday for the first time on Monday. Any last minute pearls of wisdom from the more experienced travellers with children/babies? Anything that made your life easier on the journey or over there etc?

Sickens me to know that all these lobbyists, politicians and executives who have pushed the narrative that clean energy was too expensive and a waste of time will never endure any consequences. Put greed ahead of the health of the planet but won’t be alive to live through the discomfort.

96% of wild fires (European commission) are started because people are f*cking idiots. Dropped cigarettes, campfires/bbqs left unattended etc.

@rlrossi64.bsky.social I think this one still needs some work on the clue but I think the idea is solid. I created a Minute Cryptic for you to solve: Lived untidily in Spain, lives in a hotter place? (6) Give it your best shot! www.minutecryptic.com/custom/6e85a...

I created a Minute Cryptic for you to solve: Operates puppets in Punch and Judy (4) Give it your best shot! www.minutecryptic.com/custom/adb18... @rlrossi64.bsky.social @drwilkinsonsci.bsky.social Quite an easy one but the surface felt too nice not to go for it.

Cry for me Argentina 💉 inject it into my veins

Harry’s first music festival!

What’s Spanish for crush these horrible bastards?

I’d already bought the new Spain away shirt for our holiday so it’ll be nice to get some use out of it before then.

Thank Tuchel for his efforts and sack him off. His in game management today showed he isn’t going to get us over the line. Just so predictable.

When it mattered most Tuchel couldn’t hack it. You don’t bring in a horrible guy like Tuchel if he’s going to bottle the big calls when it matters most.

Awful. You can’t camp in your 18 yard box. They’ve got the best player of all time on the field.

Get that DJed Spence statue built

That VAR decision is horse shit. Spence can go where he wants with the ball he has no obligation to avoid the defender. Shocker

England not giving a shit it’d seem

I love my son with every fibre of my being but I’d also love to be able to sleep past 4am. Do people just change their whole day? Go to bed at 8, get up at 4? Or try and persevere with a normal adult bed time in the hope his sleep in the morning improves?!
