Done some maths and I think that £90 a year to stream #AEW events, PPVs, ROH here in the UK for a year I'm going to feel like I'm ripping that sweet Jaguar's jacket off Tony Khan's back. Bring on payday!
I left my laptop charger at a client's house and rushed home to do an interview over Teams with a BritWres personality. Got to the final question.
"That's a really good question, James."
Internet out out before the battery and before she finished her answer 🤬 #wrestlesky🤼♂️
Willow really is the best. ❤️
An appropriate book to start on International Woman's Day with a strong, clear preface. #booksky📚💙
Sign that says “Wrestling is Real Trickle-Down Economics is Fake”
See y’all at #AEWcollision tonight.
Cover of Ernesto Che Guevara's Cuban Revolutionary War diary
Another book read this year and a controversial one that I bought at the library for 10p. An interesting insight into history that's made me want to learn more about Cuban and its gepgraphy and history. #history #booksky📚💙
In celebration of International Women's Day, here's a look at how the gamble that was the 1st #WWE WrestleMania and its subsequent legacy was built on shoulders of 3 women wrestlers and 1 pop sensation. The 1st women's revolution: #wrestlesky🤼♂️

New hearing aid
Me wearing my hearing aid for the first time
Today, things will change in my life. I came home and found a package from the NHS. I am almost deaf in my right ear and have been since birth. Then there was nothing they could do. Now, for the first time in my life, I can hear low sounds and what people actual say without failing at lip reading
Shade's Children by Garth Nix and Thomas Hardy's The Return of a Native
Some new charity shop purchases. Two for a pound. Not read either author but I looking forward to adding these to thw to read shelf for later enjoyment

"Reform policy creators are re-positioning society in ways that orientate male thinking towards a future ofj increased sexual abuse"
Claire Jones writes for West England Bylines to commemorate International Womens Day -
Dnd square battle map with drawings and card representing a keep and village under seiege by giants (the players).
DM'ed a one shot tonight using MCDM's Fee-Fi-Foe-Fum scenerio. The players competed to destroy a village and kill a mage to claim an ancestors prize and it did not disappoint. A lot of creativity tonight feom the players. #ttrpg #dnd
A day away from Saturday and #AEW Collision, which features more than a $200,000 4-way tag. We'll also be spoiled with a big C2 rematch from Winter is Coming Collision in Cardiff and more. Here's a full preview to get you set: #wrestlesky🤼 lastwordonsports.com/prowrestling...
Picture of a mug of hot chocolate and dark chocolate hot crossbuns, 2 woth butter and 2 with peanut butter
Its been a long day so unwinding watching The Apprentice with a mig of salt caramel hot chocolate with a shot of Bailey's, double chocolate hotcross buns, one with butter and the other peanut butter. Gawd damn luxury!
If the unfortunate folks who saw me walking the dogs somehow see this, please know that I am not mad, I was powerwalking while lip synching to My Shadow Knows (my story) #AEW
A young Tony Khan in the crowd wearing a Bullet Club shirt
I'm convinced that this little freak is doing whatever he can to keep any semblance of Bullet Club alive even if it doesn't have the BC name.

It's Wednesday, and we know this means two world title matches and more in El Paso, Texas. Here with one final preview before tonight's #AEW Dynamite, everything you need to get hyped and ready. #wrestlesky🤼 lastwordonsports.com/prowrestling...
Definitely. I think he can give it. I'm also just only exposed to his more outlandish F AEW stuff and sweary promos that I've likely missed those moments of brilliance.
I fully agree. There's a way of doing that gimmick without rehashing Mean Streets or Bronson. Unlike in NJPW, he can't rely on swearing and being anti-AEW and WWE to get notice. I'm optimistic he can get there.
Managed to get the word "ejaculate" into a training session tonight about engaging young people with reading to a bunch of other teachers. In fairness, this was in connection with Wuthering Heights, which I forgot used the word 11 times as an archaic word for blurt out.
#teachersky #booksky📚💙
I absolutely love the presentation/characterisation of Clark Connors since he's joined #AEW. I wish Gabe Kidd had more characterisation besides being a British psycho because Kidd can't compete with PAC. A stronger motive and explanation would probably do it.

It was, especially at I was 17 when I read it, although I cheated and had seen the film first. Also, I grew up watching a show called Rab C Nesbit that my dad liked, so I had some experience and decoding thick Scottish accents 😂

To help promote World Book Day this week I'm bringing in 3 of my favourite books to each centre I work at this week to stir conversations about reading. These first choices for a post-16 centre created great debate about reading maturity, content, what teenagers should/could read and more #booksky📚💙
Twice in the space of a month, I have missed out on submitting edited and polished flash fiction to contests and magazines that felt perfect for my work... Hopefully, I learn from this month.

I've done some chapter editing, some book restructuring, but what I'm most proud of this morning is getting a What We Do in the Shadows reference into my #AEW Collision preview for next week. #writingcommunity
We watched Pig tonight expecting a usual unhinged and dark comic Nicholas Cage but were blown away by the subtlety, slow pace, less is more approach of this short drama. Always love to be suprised #filmsky
