I read all sorts of books, whatever takes my fancy really. I write a bit if I have something to say. I walk miles with my my dog, Leif. I support Sheffield Wednesday. I drink lots of tea.https://bsky.app/profile/jbjb9.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/jbjb9.bsky.social/post/3mrkc635k4k27I don’t think I’ll ever say this again, but Jeremy Clarkson actually made sense in his Sunday Times column today… mostly. Still a git though.26 Jul 2026 11:37 +0000at://did:plc:lcdyppwbbt5365cxqppcf6pn/app.bsky.feed.post/3mrkc635k4k27https://bsky.app/profile/jbjb9.bsky.social/post/3mri2cvhrus25Ruin a book by adding a word: Hard Times Tables25 Jul 2026 14:11 +0000at://did:plc:lcdyppwbbt5365cxqppcf6pn/app.bsky.feed.post/3mri2cvhrus25https://bsky.app/profile/jbjb9.bsky.social/post/3mri25uirts25Northanger Abbey Tours Ruin a book by adding a word:25 Jul 2026 14:08 +0000at://did:plc:lcdyppwbbt5365cxqppcf6pn/app.bsky.feed.post/3mri25uirts25https://bsky.app/profile/jbjb9.bsky.social/post/3mri22fow3225Ruin a book be adding a word: Not Far From The Madding Crowd25 Jul 2026 14:07 +0000at://did:plc:lcdyppwbbt5365cxqppcf6pn/app.bsky.feed.post/3mri22fow3225https://bsky.app/profile/jbjb9.bsky.social/post/3mrcoom7c4s2iI should be doing this today but the sun has drunk all the water!23 Jul 2026 11:00 +0000at://did:plc:lcdyppwbbt5365cxqppcf6pn/app.bsky.feed.post/3mrcoom7c4s2ihttps://bsky.app/profile/jbjb9.bsky.social/post/3mr2zav5xv22mEdward Stourton was a broadcaster that I trusted.

But I suppose if you keep looking for those mythical “good old days” of rickets, smog and knowing your place in the class system then you’ll vote for them.20 Jun 2026 13:23 +0000at://did:plc:lcdyppwbbt5365cxqppcf6pn/app.bsky.feed.post/3mopxblobwk2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/jbjb9.bsky.social/post/3moip3xuxnk24All evidence, (Cons chancers jumping ship, crypto millionaires buying influence, woefully inexperienced and inept candidates etc) points to Reform being a disaster waiting to happen. Politics needs a kick up the arse, not a jump from frying pan to fire. #Makerfield17 Jun 2026 16:08 +0000at://did:plc:lcdyppwbbt5365cxqppcf6pn/app.bsky.feed.post/3moip3xuxnk24
