Huge thank you to everyone that has supported the fundraising the last few years. Thanks to all you wonderful people, we’ve raised nearly £50,000 for @CwC_UK from various challenges since 2021. ❤️

Cancer is going to beat me one day. But not today.

No idea who this absolute wrong’un is asking the questions but the lad answering has the perfect way of looking at life. “If you’re a good c***, you’re a good c***.

Would you rather have an all black national soccer team that wins or an all White English national soccer team that loses? “All the English lads I met are black mate”



Latest scans have been crappy and tumours continue to grow. I’m knackered and anything remotely strenuous is becoming a real struggle. So the weight plates are getting lighter and the walks are getting shorter but we are nowhere close to giving up. Fuck cancer.

Been for a nice coffee and chat with the wonderful staff at @MaggiesCentres Newcastle ahead of consultant appointment. Fingers crossed for a positive appointment, but it’s good to know there’s lots of support available either way.


This absolute danger has not been fined for his views on pronouns - he has been fined because he keeps trespassing at a school despite the count issuing an order for him to stay away. Would you want someone turning up at your kids school who has been ordered to stay away??

BREAKING: ENOCH BURKE FINED €225,000 AFTER REFUSING TO BOW TO TRANSGENDERISM Teacher Enoch Burke refused to endorse transgenderism in his school. Today he was fined almost a quarter of a million euros by the Irish Courts. Enoch Burke won his Court of Appeal case last July…

"Of course Britain’s broken – Farage has done everything he can to break it. Now he's off abroad to tell everyone how broken we are!" Clacton's MP is across the pond slagging the state of the country – but didn’t he help break it? @maitlis | @jonsopel


Birthday today. My 46th one on earth and my 6th one with cancer. Somewhere between going strong and hanging on! Fuck cancer! Cheers everyone 🎉

Still here, just getting on with things. Hope you’re all well and having a good summer ❤️


Trip to the National Space Centre on our way down for tomorrows British Grand Prix. Trying not to think of these things as bucket list but there is definitely a bit more urgency in my weekend activities now 😬😂 Hope you’re all having a good weekend

It has been a tough couple of weeks treatment-wise. Getting used to new medication and changed side effects has been a challenge. It’s my one week treatment break now though so I’ll be mainly acting like a kid loaded up on Haribo Have a cracking weekend everyone ❤️


When I got told my cancer was terminal, I promised myself I wouldn’t be going anywhere until Sunderland were back in the Premier League. Thank you @SunderlandAFC for making it happen ❤️🤍❤️🤍 Til the end.

West London looks like a very rough northern town but every flat or house costs £1.5m


When I was told my cancer was terminal I prayed I’d get to see my youngest daughter make her holy communion. Today that happened. Whatever cancer does next, I already won. ❤️

Latest scan results weren’t good but the harder cancer hits the harder I’ll hit back. I’m not on a journey, I’m in a fight. And it’s getting scrappy.

My latest scan wasn’t good. More growth in my liver means moving onto a new treatment. Cancer is like a slow-motion train wreck. I’m clinging to the tracks for now though.


We visited the Vatican on Thursday during our trip to Rome. Feels a bit more poignant now. #RIPPopeFrancis

Scans being at the @_Metrocentre is brilliant. I can treat myself to some decent scran after a morning of being nil by mouth 😂

Scan day. It’s a strange one already knowing there’ll be growth - just have to hope for as little change as possible. Ps. I haven’t been on Twitter much cos it’s awful these days - not because there’s anything wrong 😁
