Your attention please: I am back in the game. This morning I formed a new company, Tintou Ltd as a vehicle for consultancy engagements on enterprise-level WordPress development. Got some very interesting work lined up already. Details to follow. simondickson.co.uk/tintou/

If Spurs are relegated does that mean 2026-27 St. Totteringham’s Day is the final day of this season or the first game of next season? 🤔

It's probably time to wean myself off this platform. No value in it any more. All the folks & orgs I care about are now more active elsewhere. Thank you for the tweets. youtu.be/RZ2oXzrnti4?si…

Would you look at that 🌈 @CyclingIreland @trevorgillespie

In more bizarre #Intervision developments, Russia’s entry Shaman addresses the audience after his act and says he asks the jury to disregard his performance and not assign him a score - the “rules of hospitality” dictate “I have no right to lay claim to victory”, he says.

@remkusdevries @igorbenic I had this. Are you on an Apple Silicon Mac? And have you been using Local for ages? You're probably still on the legacy Intel build.

@igorbenic Local has become excruciatingly slow for me, sadly. Not the sites, but the admin. Can't figure out why :/

I absolutely love the progress Studio has made in the past couple of months. Would love it if they could have Studio Sync work with any host via a simple configuration JSON or something like that, and without reliance of all things Jetpack. developer.wordpress.com/docs/developer…

The official timing website has finally updated, so we guess that's confirmed: Matthew Richardson 🇬🇧 is the first man to go under 9 seconds for the flying 200 metres! He records a time of 8.941 in Konya today, beating Lavreysen's previous record of 9.088.

Full results from Saturday's @CyclingIreland junior women's track cycling champs. Yes, that's 2 riders in each event. The same 2 riders. Congrats to Ffion & Rhiannon, and thanks to the good folks at Sundrive. Serious questions for those responsible for rider development.

Yes it's worrying. But also an opportunity for an enterprising country, with big ambition but a modest budget, and a few young, eager track sprinters at its disposal. 👋 @CyclingIreland #emptystep #medalalert

🌍🚴‍♀️ Today we celebrate the most powerful machine ever invented: the bicycle. From everyday rides to great adventures, two wheels keep us moving, dreaming, and connecting. Happy #WorldBicycleDay2025 😍

Champions of Europe @ArsenalWFC! What a team. You did us proud.

@cyclingweekly Totally agree. The repeated circuits of Montjuic are the best spectator experience on the calendar. We've taken the kids to Barcelona a couple of years specifically to see it. Relaxed vibe around the buses, and the pressure off the riders in the last few laps. Bidons aplenty. 😉

The Volta a Catalunya, the race Tadej Pogačar conquered last year, is the most exciting – and beautiful – spring stage race on the calendar, argues Chris Marshall-Bell cyclingweekly.com/racing/a-taste…

Q for Cloudflare users: I proxy a site through CF for caching, DNS, etc. CF's Web Analytics page gives a 'visits' number that is ~10% of the 'unique visitors' number on the HTTP Traffic page for the same period. Is that difference normal? What causes it?

TNT Sports is the UK channel for the UCI track cycling in Turkey this weekend. The last track cycling story on their website was a month ago. This is not how you make me shell out £30.99 a month. tntsports.co.uk/cycling-track/
