Finishes on Friday for me. Only 4 days to go. Pleased that I have not given in as yet and should see it through. Friday could be a big night! If you see me, avoid me. :))

After a month of abstinence I was wondering how to sacrifice what felt like a newly acquired virginity. I didn't want any lout of a 'Brewed-under-licence-in-the-UK' lager or pushy plonk muscling in - they will have their way with me in due course.


Drew a blank yesterday then tonight, as I was walking up the lane, I got seduced by a glass of hot winter cider in the Palmerston. Fine cider, spices, orange and a hint of vanilla.


They are doing it 'take-away' too and I expect NorthX rd Mkt to be all the better for it tomorrow... mmmm, good to be back.

I think he is doing his best but some things (the 'look' at Diouf, the signing of Carew) have me bemused. I think he WANTS to move on from the long ball game so he can be considered for the England job (after Harry) and sees WH as his best bet but old habits etc. The old accusations obviously irk him (which is why he bangs on about them and how it's not true any more in interviews).


I do think Cole has improved and Nolan is pulling the team into shape - still think we will need a top goal scorer when we go up.

But it is true.

I'd love to do it this month as feeling the burn (my age) a bit, but am squeezing in seeing x (event/person/place) for the last time most weekends over the next 6 weeks *wipes away a tear* so can't see it happening.

Luckily I'm moving somewhere that people don't really associate alcohol with social occassions and environments..... :/

Horses keep getting in the way. Last year Frankels last stand on 20th of the month and this year Silver Treasure 16th, so yes the abstinence is getting shorter, but I usually last long enough to be sober for the company doctor annual medical. I tell him I'm teetotal.

      4+ Assessment Advice for Parents

      By Lord Pencilton · Posted

      It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️

      GALA 2026

      By kiera · Posted

      Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.

      So dangerous!    Can you be more specific about the road this was in and when you report it?  Maybe there’s some CCTV footage available
