Eldest lad's special friend, 'She's not me bird!' is up from Builth Wells (no, me neither) and informs us that North Waleians are affectionately known as 'Gogs'. Did we know this?

If anyone has a problem with Business, let me introduce David. Any issues at all, but particularly rules and speed limits, David is your man.
But one thing I know from bringing up kids and managing business is that if you expect a rule to be conformed to then it has to be enforced. Speeding is largely not enforced, then suddenly enforced very harshly, then not enforced. It's weirdly punitive to most people.
Flew from Manchester, transit in Munich, sitting on on a flight to Cairo. Haven't had to show my passport once. Had my boarding passes after online check in, scanned my second one at the gate and was allocated a seat there. How does that work? Enjoy this litre of beer while you ponder it..
Not completely scandal free. Ask the people of Flint, Michigan.
Happy 65th Birthday, August 4th, to the best President in US History. The black man "they" feared, led with humor, dignity & grace for 8 yrs scandal-free, has a beautiful & accomplished family, and is beloved by millions around the world. @barackobama.bsky.social #BarackObama #ThePeoplesPresident
Decent pour for an airport pint. Off to Cairo again to get shouted at. Going via Munich so downloaded The Guns of Navarone in case any Germans start getting friendly.
Nigel Farage asked Reform activists to "come and help him for once" in Clacton, an appeal critics say treats his self-triggered byelection as a favour owed to him, as his national polling collapses and his finances face fresh scrutiny.
Reasonably balanced I suppose. Arsenal Bradford Celtic Chelsea City Everton Fulham Leeds Libpewl MU Tranmere Wigan Have I missed any?
Supervised by the convicted fraudster George Cottrell, the agreement undermines Farage’s claim about when he decided to return to politics.

Sipping my coffee ☕️ and thinking about these marvellous Minoan cups! They look so modern it’s incredible to think they were made by Bronze Age potters some 3,800 years ago! Heraklion Archaeological Museum, Crete. 📷 by me #Archaeology
People are scared to admit they can't stand Kraftwerk because they fear Paul Morley will mock them in his boring fucking monotone drawl on his latest shite podcast where you're only allowed on if you agree with everything he says
Post your hottest music take. Mine is New Order is better than Joy Division.
On Yorkshire day. John Cooper Clark jokes. I've got a mate from Yorkshire. He doesn't like elasticated underpants. Because they give. My Leeds mate was propositioned by a hooker. She said you can sleep with me for five pounds. He said well I'm not tired but I could sure use the cash.
I return to the UK and the greater Manchester region voting public does the right thing. Coincidence?

Goodnight fellow optimists from me and my missus, Maeve. The greatest thing to leave Belfast since the IRA shipped Semtex to ETA.
Last one I promise. Vlychos, just around the coast from Hydra port by water taxi. Fried anchovies. Spicy whipped feta. Sea Bream like silk. Stuffed pepper and tomato for The Trouble. Washed down with ice cold Alpha and Mamos. Setting incredible.
Continuing my ABM (Anything But Mythos) campaign with a zealous fervour...
