Ordered some waffles for breakfast at a local cafe that shall remain nameless.
Turned out to be from a packet!
The food scene here in Stornoway was never great, but these days it is atrocious 😢
As Starmer blocks Burnham’s bid to return to Westminster as an MP, we’re reminded of this cover from October 2025... #EyeToldYouSo
Do you ever feel you’re being excluded?
From the new Private Eye, out now.
With everything going on in the world, the BBC thinks that the second (and third!) most important news item is something about one of their own weather presenters leaving.
Because: BBC things.
How did it come to this? 🤦♂️
I did once start trying to make an asteroids game as a Sketch plugin 😂. Just to prove a point…
It would have been awesome :)
And only taken a minute or two to implement*
(* honest…)
That’s how I eat my pancakes too 🙃
It's the satirists I feel sorriest for.
Flight back to Stornoway cancelled due to an excess of wind.
Who’d’a’thunk’it?

Looking forward to next year…

I was always more of a fan of their first album, which of course was heavily inspired by the Stornoway fishing scene.
Tracks like Anyone Out There, To the Shore, Night Boat, and Sound of Thunder speak for themselves.
And then of course there was the absolute classic Gulls on Film…
🤔
Just thinking…
Hegseth’s new fitness standard presumably applies to the commander-in-chief, right?
I’d hate to be that personal trainer.
I generally use excalidraw+ when I want to sketch something.
I really like it (enough to pay for it…).
Looks very sexy, but it’s in that category of “would I actually use it?”.
Shame there’s no demo…
This Harper’s article, from 1941, seems depressingly relevant…

Oh An Lanntair. With your devil may care attitude - showing the closed caption version of a film, just for the hell of it, like the rebel you are.
🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
I’ll visit you in jail…
