Hey @ThreeUK. Trying to top up a Data Pack for one of your pay-as-you-go SIMs. Your website just doesn't want to take my money. Is there an easy fix for this or is my time better spent finding a SIM from another provider?

Thanks to @PeteGreig for his Insta post about today being the 250th birthday of Amazing Grace. He recommended searching out this clip on YouTube, so I did... "Grace has brought me safe thus far and grace will lead me home." Good words to start 2023 with! youtube.com/watch?v=CBKwV6…

@Hellyers Yeah, perhaps i should have made the effort to be there... although the weather looks way better on film than it did in reality. Which, I know, is exactly what a lightweight would say!

I've been in Bosnia and Herzegovina almost 14 years a never seen a Rolls Royce on the road here. Today I saw two in one five-hour drive. This random, probably pointless, observation only goes to show the humble Rolls is, in fact, a relation of the London Bus. #random #RollsRoyce

Just checked @BBCSport and honestly took a second's pause to asked if we hadn't gone back in time a couple of weeks. But no it's not April 1st, and outside of that context the Sean Dyche announcement makes no sense. #bbcfootball

I often feel like a jack-of-all-trades multi-instrumentalist, but at heart I think I'm still a bass player. I've got a lot of time for @corywong and his musical output. Here's to British bass players! youtube.com/watch?v=V5PzDa…

They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks but...my wife bought me a Kindle in October and she might just be succeeding in turning me into a reader! Over the past decade I've probably averaged 2 or 3 books a year. I've finished 4 since January. Can I keep up 'a book a week'?

Just kicked off 2022 listening to "The Joy of Being", "Fear" and "A Mirror Dimly" from @citizenstheband back to back. If I can be part of making some albums as creative and inspired as these this year then I'll be a happy boy*! (*late-forty-something musician/songwriter/producer)

@themichaelowen You got a couple of goals in a couple of 2-0 qualifier wins against Liechtenstein back in 2004. I'm sure I remember that back then the expectation was @England could/should have been winning 10-0. I'm not going to complain now they have a team that can really bang in the goals!

Rapidly falling out of love with watching international football barring the big tournaments. I think a lot of people feel the same way. Half of these games are absolutely pointless. A restructure is needed.

As @MKBHD says: "these are the laptops that a lot of people have been waiting a long time for." We can probably even forgive @Apple for being a bit self-congratulatory for just listening to their customers. Ports and headphone socket for the win! youtube.com/watch?v=uhIdij…

@petepaphides I'd visit. I've never understood how the English language has allowed "bread and butter" to become synonymous with everyday or ordinary. At it's best it is the best.

LATEST RESTAURANT IDEA. You know when you’re in a really posh restaurant and before your starter arrives they bring out a basket of totally excellent bread with a dish of the best butter you’ve ever had? Just that, over and over again, and don’t bother with the other food.

Friday music thoughts: I'm excited to hear @thefeeling have a new album on the way. Hoping for some new classics. And I'm impressed with #DontShutMeDown by @ABBA, which sounds just like one of their old classics. Not bad after a 40 year break!
