Just a quick update. I’ve just seen on Social Media that it’s Intense Ginger Bloke’s new partner’s 40th Birthday. He has popped a picture online of her and her cake that says, ‘Happy 40th Birthday to my human’. Wow. He hasn’t changed much. #intensegingerbloke #IGB

Can you imagine just how fucking stressful a The Repair Shop bloopers & outtakes reel would be? Oops, I fucked that up. It’s shattered. Oh shit. Jay, the teddy’s on fire. Can we buy a new one?

Is there anything more vile, toxic, grating and downright fucking annoying than the Betfair Casino ads? These are the smoking adverts of the TikTok generation, a doctor telling you to smoke cigs to calm your nerves. Fucking horrible. Get in the sea you thundercunts.

Not judging, but I have no idea how people cope with going to a sex worker. I just got my van washed and I couldn’t look the bloke in the eye as he soaped my windscreen, and I nearly screamed when he opened the door to do the sills.

Looking forward to the next Attenborough documentary called Cunts - Humans in the Wild with a ‘how it was made’ video at the end showing how cameramen had to hide in a skip for three days to catch a drug addict noshing off a drunk man by some bins behind Tesco Express.

I didn’t realise you actually pronounced these films SEW. #terrypastry #sewingbee

Amazing how France has managed to make the whole opening ceremony feel like the 80’s telly show It’s a Knockout. It’s an absolute clusterfuck. #olimpiadi2024

Paris, furious at not having the Olympics for 100 years, petulantly make their Opening Ceremony last an entire century. #OpeningCeremony

If Will Ferrell needs a new subject for one of his absurd Eurovision/Blades of Glory/Talladega Nights type movies, he need look no further than Olympic Speedwalking. It is fucking bonkers. #speedwalking #Olympic2024

Just going to say it, but even if you bought me the ticket and paid me £500 on top I wouldn’t go to see Oasis. Not just the music, but IMAGINE THE PEOPLE IN THE AUDIENCE.

They missed a trick by not badging this up as a Cadbury’s Bendy Bus.

So Prince Andrew had links to a vast paedophile network, has made all manner of shady deals across the world and now has links to a Chinese spy that could potentially jeopardise national security… so the king threatens to ban him from going on a fucking stroll? Wow.
