The worst aspect of the this Ryder Cup is that I am forced to watch Patrick Cantlay. He should be shown exclusively on a delay with footage only cutting to him when he starts his backswing. The worst guy for fannying around over a ball since Sergio. #RyderCup

Up Top Slightly gutted to find only two bucket hats and one tweed flat cap in the group, but delighted to report… Oasis Goth is wearing an all black bucket hat. Is there an official name for the biker boots, jeans, Oasis t-shirt, leather jacket, bucket hat (all black) aesthetic?

On a train to Edinburgh a mere 5 hours before gates open for Oasis. Sharing a vestibule (every seat & aisle space gone, last saw the conductor 30 minutes ago) with 22 people. It is like being transported back to high school, but everyone looks like melted candles.

Just passed a hairdresser in Montrose called DOO OR DYE and I feel like every pun shop name in Scotland should just close down right now, for they have been weighed, they have been measured and they have absolutely, been found wanting. #shoppuns

When I tried to argue with my daughter that while I was definately a nerd, I wasn’t a massive nerd has been significantly undermined by the photo she just sent me of the books on my bedside table…

Reflecting on a good, but challenging 2024, reminiscing about some great (and not great) wines and waxing lyrical about Riesling & Sherry. Also comparing myself to champagne, because no one else will! 🤣

American Football in the snow is possibly the greatest sport on Earth. They play all games in domes held at -5, fans blowing 30mph winds & snow machines. #SF #BUF

39 pallets shifted from the back store @Luvians onto the street by 9:30am for the post summer collection is a hell of a way to get your cardio & weights in of a morning. 🏃‍♂️ 💪 Quick Govan shower in the world’s smallest sink, change of shirt and ready for doors open!

I have long been banned from accompanying the small humans that live in my house to their first day of the new school year, but they do grudgingly agree to send a selfie at the gates. Welcome to S3 & S5 you utter brilliant and totally mental duo!

Archie’s favourite ride at the Lammas Market is a giant disc that spins fast enough to pin you back in your seat (but not far enough to stop you sliding several feet to either side regularly). Called ‘Pump It Up’ if features zero safety restraints whatsoever and is ‘the best’

Flicking through my Dad’s vinyl on a recent visit brought up a a pretty rough comparison between the first album I ever bought with my own money and the first album my Dad ever bought with his own money… #kylie #thebeatles #whitealbum
