My last #running post went crazy with likes & reshares, so I thought I’d say hello properly!

I’m Graham & I’m beginning a #NikeRunClub Get Started program.

I want to get running regularly after a 6 month break due to injury & inertia!

Thanks for all the support on run one & here’s to many more!

Some thoughts on the #F1 β€˜new era’.

The changes add unnecessary complication & take away from the pure racing.

Is a driver slow or just recharging? Could they have closed a gap without a boost? Would they have taken that place without an unstoppable overtake button?

It feels artificial to me.

Yes, one side thinks western civiliization should be an authoritarian, white supremacist, protectionist dystopia and the other a democratic, liberal and progressive alliance. I’ll leave you to figure out which is which…

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s arrest is a good advert for Britain - Monocle The Tower of London is calling Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. While the former prince’s arrest on suspicion of misconduct in public office...

β€œIt is further ignominy for Mountbatten-Windsor, who was once described to me by a former British diplomat as, β€œagainst considerable competition for the title, the single stupidest human being I have ever encountered”

As a European I can tell you it did not reassure, and the rallying it did achieve was to further unite us against this fascist US government.

Trump just creates artificial crises so he can go in an β€˜fix’ them. Absolute grifter

I had a geeky #F1 thought- whilst this season’s horrible Ferrari livery is clearly about making the sponsor logo stand out, to give the designers some credit it also appears to pay homage to a classic Lauda 1970s Ferrari

As the world finally punches back, was this the week Donald Trump went too far? | Jonathan Freedland The US president took his bullying doctrine to Davos and hit a wall of opposition. If this creates a new western alliance against him, all to the good, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Freedland

This. All of it.

Which I think is currently backfiring on said brand. They need to hope the adage about no bad publicity works for them this time round

Whoever designed this livery for the new Ferrari had one job. Make it red. Not sure what happened here, but it’s not good….

What have they done? 🀒 That is terrible. How hard is it to produce an all red Ferrari?!

Just catching up on #MoTD- unbelievable post-match from
Ollie Glasner. Taking a page from Amorim and Maresca’s playbook and amping it up to the max. That’s a man who wants the sack.

Beautiful sunset at Caswell tonight. I will never tire of having Gower on my doorstep. As much as I enjoyed pottering around central London last week, I wouldn’t swap this for anything.
