Print advert for Heinz Ravioli, with the heading "It's that ravioli moment". Main photo is of a comedy dad bringing all his mates round - with a tin of Party Seven - because they want to try some of the tinned ravioli.

Photo of the lion the witch and the wardrobe book

Fantastic day #hiking along the River Tyne valley. Loved the sky heading over Hagg Bank Bridge
And the 4th book of 2025 finished. Really interesting read from one of my all time cricketing heroes
Thatβs 3rd book of 2024 done. Really interesting memoir from Sir Geoff Hurst. Obviously know about the 1966 win but knew so little about the people behind it.
β #Badenoch may not know it,but the pattern of her leadership is set. The trajectory is all too familiar. It is the path of least moral resistance, gravitating inexorably rightwards, laundering fanaticism through the mainstream Conservative brand, striving to make the unacceptable sound respectableβ
And thatβs the second book of 2025 finished. Very interesting and inspiring read from Sir Chris Hoy.
