Today's "I definitely have enough time on my hands to do podcasts on obscure former Football League clubs" effort:
Today's podcast is about the time a stadium decided to try a football team. That football team was Thames AFC, and things didn't quite go to plan: anchor.fm/stuart-john/episod…

This seems to be my Sundays now - niche sport history podcasts. But feel free to listen & provide feedback etc.
The first 2nd Division table had some familiar clubs, some more familiar after a name change, & some you may not know about. Northwich Victoria FC were one of the latter, and this is their FL story: anchor.fm/stuart-john/episod…

Because apparently I have too much time on my hands:
Another Football League history podcast, this time about Middlesbrough Ironopolis, the club with possibly the best team name ever: anchor.fm/stuart-john/episod…

Did a podcast thing about a defunct English football team: listen to Tales From The Football League on @anchor anchor.fm/stuart-john/episod…
I just realised Aurelia in Love Actually apparently lives in Marseilles, but everyone understands Portuguese which is doing my head in because I'm fairly certain that is not in fact the case...
First humid day of the summer in Canberra today, so throwback to time spent in an actual rainforest. Not long now hopefully until can get back to @queensland! @ Elabana Falls instagram.com/p/CV95DaoPxxM/… – at O'Reilly, Queensland
Watching the end of #SAvsSL before going to bed and all I can think is how much I love cricket... #T20WorldCup
Amazing how a weekend away can feel like a holiday! Couple of nights with friends on a farmstay down the NSW South Coast, great weekend, and some massive feeds! @ Moruya, New South Wales instagram.com/p/CVZg95KPK3r/… – at Moruya, New South Wales

... The company I worked for had organised a week-long trip through Finnish Lapland and needed someone to go along and get the party started when needed. They'd pay for flights, food, and most excursions if I was interested? #travel @lonelyplanet linktr.ee/stuartajohn
We then travelled through Lapland, with the highlights a husky dog ride and a trip on an icebreaker. There the brave could don a drysuit and take a dip; I was content to walk on the sea ice and take photos of the ship.

The people on the trip were amazing and it was probably my favourite as a passenger.
For more, head to linktr.ee/stuartajohn, then kick back, relax, and thank-you for travelling with us at...
