Ever wondered how many modes of transport are referenced throughout @ChrisDeBurgh 1989 album “Spark to a Flame”?
Well, thanks to an hour at my computer earlier, you need wonder no more.
You’re welcome.
Hello @walkers_crisps. If you have surplus supplies of the World Cup Spanish Queso crisps, I’m about to finish my last bag and will happily help you out. 😛
I’m listening to BBC @RadioHumberside because sometimes I feel a little homesick down here in near Birmingham.
The presenter just said last night she “bought some halloumi because it was on offer in Heron.”
I couldn’t be any closer to back ‘urme. 🤣
Local radio connects 🫶🏼
We're staying at a @TravelodgeUK. As my partner just said: "Travelodge is way better than it used to be. It's even as good as a @premierinn these days." Which is a tag line if ever there was one.
We've got an extended Bank Holiday after @Enterprise gave us this car to travel north and back in. (Tyre Pressure warning flashed on the M1; I only noticed the baldness when I got 150 miles to Yorkshire).
The kids are happy - they're missing school! (Thankfully they're safe too!)
What New Year songs are there?
1) New Year's Day - U2
2) Happy New Year - ABBA
3) The Perfect Year - Dina Carroll (best one)
I can't think of any others off the top of my frazzled head.
The best thing about the resurgence of vinyl reaching a new generation is that it means it's okay to use the record scratch SFX in all production again.
I'm watching the brilliant @tonyblackburn talking about chatbots on @BBCMorningLive as I try to get passed the Virgin Media chatbot to speak to a human. Apparently just saying "grapefruit" or "banana" repeatedly will help.
Let's see in real time...
Finally managing to watch "Saturday Night".
It's not Saturday, it's not live from New York... but I've got wine and chocolate so it seemed a good time.
Top of the Pops on U channel is from 19 June 1998. It may be one of the greatest episodes ever. Pretty much every song a classic.
Today was fun day hosting a team building event for @Bupa in Manchester. They were an up for it bunch. It felt like a Friday on a Tuesday. #EventHost

Thanks to @AlBooth for hosting our fascinating evening with Chris Tarrant @mac_birmingham. So many amazing memories, from ATV Today and TISWAS to Tarrant On TV and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire. What a legend!
Yes. As I found out at the petrol station after filling up 🤪
