I know I'm about forty years late commenting on this, but it needs to be said... they cast Sean Connery to be in Highlander, possibly the most Scottish movie ever, and then decided to make his character be Egyptian/Spanish. Why? Why?


I'm never quite sure if filing my rubbish quickly with trash means it's been a successful Sunday morning litter picking session but today's was completed in double quick time #LitterPickingSunday #LetsTidyBritain

Another busy Sunday morning of litter picking. Highlight of the found rubbish being a discarded vacuum cleaner someone had thoughtfully taken out to the middle of nowhere to dispose of. #LitterPickingSunday #LetsTidyBritain

Ten days after Ricky Pointing played his last day of test cricket Joe Root played his first. Twelve and a half years later he passes his run total. What a story, what a player, what a legend! Roooooooooot! #BBCcricket #ENGvsIND


Stokes out for thirty three for the third test in a row. Is that any sort of record for the highest score a batter has finished on for three matches in a row? #ENGvIND #bbccricket


If the food options at the Oasis reunion concerts doesn't include a Digsy's Dinner Van selling nothing but lasagne then frankly something has gone very wrong.


Apart from the pile of rubbish deliberately placed up to create this photo, the level of trash left behind looks to be significantly less than at other festivals at big outdoor concerts. Well done to the festival goers on their great behaviour. #Glastonbury #Glastonbury2025

Turns out the eco warriors of Glastonbury are happy to litter farmland with litter, bags of feces and canisters of hippy crack. How utterly green and progressive! 👍🏻

This band Patchwork sure do have some songs. Can't believe I haven't heard of them before - I can't find any albums or even releases anywhere. #Glastonbury


Well, I've got to say @cricketaus have done a great job devising a ticket buying system for the Ashes that was even more frustrating than getting Oasis tickets. Worst thing is I don't know if my purchase has gone through successfully at all...


But on the plus side for Man United with no European football next season they can focus entirely on the league, with some experts suggesting they may be able to finish as high as twelfth #TotMun #EuropaLeagueFinal


I can see the word Easter ten times on the boxes shown? Do I win a chocolate egg as a prize?

It's amazing how you can make an airport feel peaceful and calm simply by having a few fake trees scattered around the place and playing birdsong quietly in the background.

I was just thinking how lucky we are in the UK not to have had leaders abusing their positions to flog us products when I remembered this. Did we ever get 'wonderful' Tim Tams into our high street stores or was it yet another post-Brexit benefit that never materialised?

There were five Reform MPs sitting in parliament, Five Reform MPs sitting in parliament, And if one Reform MP should accidentally call Nigel Farage out for acting like a messiah...


Well tonight I've learnt 1500 bananas weigh 92 kg #gladiators


Strange. Half an hour ago my timeline was full of posts supporting Zelensky and criticising Trump. Now it is full of posts with posts of the opposite point of view, despite the posts having been created at the same time. Someone is tinkering with the algorithm...


Time to find out whether filming an episode of the One Percent Club four days into Movember makers me look like a weak moustached twat on national TV #the1percentclub #theonepercentclub

It's a bit unfair that one contestant gets Viper and the other doesn't. Has Viper won a single solo event yet? #Gladiators


Can we please get rid of the one step at a time rule for Unleash? Gives the contestants no chance of winning #Gladiators


Well looks like Andy is showing that paratroopers are good at descending straight to ground #Gladiators
