Finished my second year of reading a Caro book over 12 months (actually 11 this time as just had to finish). Phenomenal! Thanks to @romanmars @ElliotKalan and @99piorg. Four more years of this journey (hopefully)

@victoriamelody You're welcome. The next day @bbc5live had a phone in about replacing allotments with homes and I was screaming your line about only 1.5% of land being built on and we don't need to take away the working class's green space.

@allyhume Thank you Ally

Really enjoyed this show today. Great mix of history, politics, uplifting emotion and laughs. Thanks @victoriamelody edfringe.com/tickets/whats-…

Enjoyed Cadel: Lungs on Legs @cadeltheplay at the Fringe. Tells the story of Cadel Evans' cycling career culminating in his Tour de France win. Certainly one for any other cycling fans.

Love Robert Caro. Non-fiction epics that read like a thriller. Chapter that explains a legal problem, its potential impact on people, and how Senator Buchanan will fix it, ends with "And then, on February 22, 1937, Buchanan suffered a heart attack and died."

Obviously I had to sample the Tunnock's Rocky Road in a cafe in North Queensferry at the end of my walk today. Quality.

@SkyNews Someone needs to tell biology about this because currently biology is creating many cases where things are not quite so simple.

It's been getting stick but all of my family loved the Christmas #Outnumbered. Laughed all the way through.

I've been given Caro's first LBJ book for Christmas. So this adventure of discovery is going to roll on for another five years. Delighted with that. Thanks @99piorg for getting me on this journey.

Finished The Power Broker by Robert A Caro today. A week before the final @99piorg episode. It's been a hell of a ride. Loved it. Thanks @romanmars and @ElliottKalan

Some days are just great because my colleagues are an excellent bunch of people. Thanks @dataloch and @EPCCed

@sw_holocron Then they will need to keep producing quality animated series to get me to subscribe for all 12 months.

Disney/Lucasfilm are reportedly reducing their output of live-action Star Wars shows on Disney+ to 1 per year starting in 2025. In comparison, 2022 featured 3 live-action Star Wars shows (The Book of Boba Fett, Obi-Wan Kenobi, & Andor)

@TudorProCycling @alafpolak1 For Tudor he'd climb a mountain! That's one for UK 80s kids!

I would have thought that 400m runners would be the last people to adopt vector velocity over scalar speed!

Mountain road is starting to fill up with fans. Expect it to be bouncing tomorrow.

So I'm at Le Tour again! This time for a bucket list mountain stage on Friday. With @Ross66152663

@ArleneCasey @ScotRail Someone did it during lunch at Usher yesterday. In the lunch area. I was fuming.
