Anybody else just get the #EmergencyAlert. In Wetherspoons & it went off. Everybody else thought it was a fire drill.

While I commend "Five" for this commission. It'll just be a 1 hour talking head schedule filler with rent-a-gobs, detailing the chronological timeline of events & not actually answering the question. This would be the case, sans parliamentary enquiry.

Did we all know about this? When did he retrain?

Had a fantastic day out in #York. Obviously, there's a lot more to see, so I hope to return in future.

Really enjoyed Electric Paradise at #MiltonKeynes 🥣 today. A good 1st music festival experience.

Be honest, I've not heard this track or aware what's charting. When this became "news" yesterday, I tested new earphones using TV Party by Black Flack & Mesopotamia by B52s. Songs released way before I was born.

The duet has spent 19 non-consecutive weeks at the top of the charts, breaking a 73-year-old record.

In this #Odyssey parody, there's a smutty gag from Flanders as King of Troy. "Now throughout history, when people get wood, they'll think of trojans." Cuts back to real Homer laughing.

What #Heatwave? On my way home from the weekly 5k social, with the #running club. Could've stayed home, but with so many hot days in the UK, all I can do is acclimatise. Went well though, thanks to Lucozade & Lipton.

Reading up on the reasons English speaking US viewers are watching the #WorldCup on Telemundo & not Fox, reminded me of this.

I'm at the British Library's, #InBodied museum late. Missed the scheduled talks but craft & meditation workshops all good.

Finally, the Arbeloa appointment gets announced, but why late night. Did the negotiations continue until then or was there some logic behind it? #FFC

It was a dream. No, #England didn't lose on pens after the match ended 3-3. It was all a dream. They're through the #WorldCup QF. PHEW!!

All going on in #Enfield tonight. Police helicopter doing acrobatics & a Police car racing like it's a 1970s cop show.

That's me done at #Cambridge South, the 1st new #GBR station.

Have arrived at #Cambridge South (CMS).

Up early, only 3 hours sleep. Ready for the opening of #Cambridge South Station.

I genuinely thought they'd end the #Glastonbury special with Bowie's Life On Mars, guessing they couldn't get clearance. But Elton was good.

Shirley Bassey's 2097 Legends set on #FortyGlastonburyGems. Watched that with my mum & found out she was a fan. 5 years after she passed, I requested History Repeating on Absolute 90's, who wanted Mother Day requests & they played it.

Only in Margate. 🙄

So hot, A/C not working in office & had to undo another shirt button. I basically look like I'm about to be arrested for eating a succulent Chinese meal. #Heatwave

Outside in this uk #heatwave, because of a work fire drill. Going to need a lie down now. Got a real headache.

Glad #MockTheWeek is back in time for the #WorldCup. I remember the episode that followed England's loss to Germany in 2010 was brutal. More open and honest than any pundit at the time.

Everything's a conspiracy

Is #ITV's #WorldCup overage sponsored by Duracell?

Nothing marks #GlobalRunningDay than running with this years #C25K group. Giving the same support i got last year from the run club. Thanks #Garmin & #Nike for confirming. #RunSky

Trying to book for #Cambridge South Station's opening next month. Looks like GN are running the 1st service out of KGX, but as you can see, tickets only available from (what's left of) GA.

A Tribe Called Quest sampled it better. #TOTP

Give it a few weeks & that pre-recorded continuity announcement FINALLY gets retired. #TOTP
