Daybreak dog walk with Billy up on the ridgeway the other morning. No filter required when it’s this pretty already ❤️

Every other day of the year ‘Daaaaaddd… what’s for breakfast?’ ‘Cereal or toast.’ 24th, 25th & 26th of December ‘Daaaaaddd… what’s for breakfast?’ ‘Toblerone or Quality Street’
Sometimes I take my 17 yr old daddymobile into the approved dealership garage. They always put those plastic covers on the seats & steering wheel and paper mats on the floor. I assume it’s so they don’t get their overalls covered in dog hairs, sweet wrappers & sausage roll crumbs

I mean Syd’s behaviour was getting crazier and more erratic by the day. So one day I just said ‘I’m off out to get a pack of fags Syd’. Roger, Dave and Nick were waiting in the van. We went off and and did the show without him. And that was that. Syd was out.

Current Swindon weather. Overcast but not raining. Peak temp today will be 11°c. One of my neighbours has fired up the bbq. Got a lot of respect for that neighbour!

Couldn’t agree more
We have one chance and only one to try and limit the damage he has done.
I had a hand in creating this playlist. Give it a spin if you fancy feeling like you’re in my bar, or scanning through my record collection.

Good point well made!
One thing I have to wonder with this 10pm curfew in place to prevent the spread of the virus: when the clocks change, will the virus know?

This happens to me about once a year. I run out of coffee, but for some reason have whole beans in the cupboard. So I have to grind my beans in a mortar and pestle. Like an animal. “Daddy, what was 2020 really like?” “You wouldn’t believe me if I told you darling” 😔

*eagerly awaits chastising from my coffee nerd friends horrified at the prospect I’m not already grinding from bean

Today’s ear worm. The words ‘Mazda MX5’ over and over and over. In Adam Buxton’s Dzavid Bvowie voice.

Why is it that it only ever blows a gale on bin day? So far this morning I’ve lost 2 recycling box lids, rescued my car from a rogue wheelie bin, and slalomed my way to work through all the bags of plastics that are all over the roads.
