Tonight at 7pm BST, I'll be in conversation with Andrew Lowe - @andrewlowe.bsky.social about the latest in his Jake Sawyer series, Blood Never Sleeps, over on the UK Crime Book Club - @ukcrimebookclub.bsky.social Join us there at the link below.
A great story in the local paper about the 1st England women’s football match, which took place in Nuneaton in 1973, but also talks about the current plight of the new, fan run Nuneaton Town and its quest to return home. www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/local-n...
Have no idea about what or who the drama was but very reassured that the CWA have acted swiftly and decisively.
Congratulations to all the incredible @thecewa.bsky.social Dagger longlist nominees. thecwa.co.uk/awards-and-c...
I'm all for it. You can't tear your eyes away for a second.
Bayern v Real is an absolute classic of a match #UCL

Looked pretty good on the way in.
First thunderstorm of the year, although hard not to feel a bit cheated, usually get the warm weather first. Sounds like a good one though...

I’ve always reacted well to bluntness. And it was a bleeding obvious fix to my issue.
Picture of an email, from Ben Bruce to Ben Bruce sent yesterday. Body of email reads; “They’ve bloody retrofit them you twat. Last minute job. Obviously.”
Been struggling with a plot point for a while. Answer came minutes after I put my laptop down last night as I brushed my teeth for bed. Sent myself a motivational email on my phone so I wouldn’t forget.
Champions again, ole ole!
15 months ago work told me that it would probably be a quiet start to the year as there was a new project in but it wouldn’t be something I’d have a lot to do on. Today, I finally finished it.
I think.

Little bit of off topic fitba post. Top of the Highland League with a game to go. If both teams equal each others results and Brechin can’t swing the goal difference, it will be the third consecutive season where Brechin will miss out on the title on goal difference.
Getting told off for noisy writing again. It's an action scene, so can't be helped. #AmWriting

To clarify, he’s a Brit.
A friend of mine moved to Spain, met a French girl, had 2 kids in Spain. They’ve never lived in the UK. If they want to visit this summer, they have to have a British passport as despite not living here due to him they’re British or they can’t come. Which is mad. And will cost the best part of £300.

Oi, America. Your idiot is out there threatening genocide. Sort your shit out. Those who do fuck all, are complicit.

Full moon joy is such a great term. I'm using that whenever I get the chance.
Finally sat down to an episode of SNL UK. Thought it was brilliant. #SNLUK
Full blown massive Nuneaton could win the league against their local rivals Atherstone today Pre Match Tension. A draw will do it.
