Absolutely delighted that the fabulous @FoD_Press have released my first full poetry collection, The Fish Inside, into the open sea of words. Available here. Check out all their splendid publications. flightofthedragonfly.com/shop/

My many thanks to Bad Lilies, to Andrew and Kathryn, for publishing my Turner poem. Honoured to be in this superb issue. This is a poem subsequent to my new collection, History of the Child, out now, Bloodaxe. #Badlilies #BloodaxeBooks #FalmouthPoetryGroup

@iamb_uk A wonderful celebration of a brilliant platform for poetry. Thanks so much Mark and Louise.

Six years ago, a new online poetry journal launched against an inauspicious backdrop of a pandemic and Brexit. @iamb_uk has since sailed many waves. Its 25th will appear this March. Last night, these 18 poets celebrated the journal's first six years. And it was bloody brilliant!

@PalaceReport Merci. Allez les aigles!

🇫🇷💪

@stuthejag Scored away at Montrose in the 90s in a 1-0 win. Supporters bus stopped off in Arbroath to celebrate. Knew we were going up after that.

#PartickThistle striker Colin McGlashan in 1992. Started his career at Dundee before moving to Dunfermline, Cowdenbeath, Clyde, Thistle, Ayr Utd, Montrose, Arbroath, Elgin City and Tayport.

Ivor Cutler was born in a Scotch sitting room 102 years ago today, a true national treasure. Here’s his portrait by Michael Knowles in the National Gallery, always makes me smile. #ivorcutler #lifeinascotchsittingroom @NatGalleriesSco

@TPWNewsHQ Go on, big man!

🗣️ 🧤 Matt Turner: “It was amazing to be here, to see the crowd, feel the energy, feel so welcome as well. It's my second time at Selhurst. I played here last season, but I was on the away side. I much prefer being here and being on the home side.”

@TCPalacePod Hope Glasner picks Freedman over Mateta today. Has a good record v Stockport County.

If you say ‘Stockport County’ to any Palace fan over the age of 30, this is what they’ll think of…👇 We were minutes away from dropping into the third tier. Cometh the hour, cometh Sir Douglas Freedman! 🙌 #CPFC #EmiratesFACup

@stuthejag I remember a nil nil home draw v Celtic where he stopped it being at least 0-5. Is it this one?

The outstanding Nicky Walker in action for #PartickThistle v Celtic in Nov 1995.

Good to start the year to recognise the great work done on Mental Health by our alliance in partnership with @BellaSankey @huxley06 and their team. We were sorry that @BellaSankey wasn’t able to be with us but look forward to meeting in the next few days.

Today's poem, 'If you didn't know what a storm is' by Matt Gilbert @RichlyEvocative, captures the atmosphere and ferocity of a storm. Read the full poem at the link below, or through the link in our bio: inksweatandtears.co.uk/matt-gilbert-2/

@stuthejag Mon the ghost!

@HLTCO Keep on keeping on.

This platform is fucking mental. I called out Joey Barton for using disability as the source of a “joke” but because this place is the way it is, you’ll just get called a “virtue signaller” regardless of the fact that I literally have cerebral palsy and think Barton is a reprehensible c*** of a man. The irony is, this bloke knows nothing about me and puts weird assumptions on the source of my views because he sees a number of followers and jumps to conclusions. I’ve called out all sorts of bollocks throughout my time on here, it’s why, when a prominent journalist called me racist despite not having a shred of truth, so many people backed me (something I’ll be eternally grateful for). It seems, ever since Elon made blue ticks paid for, plenty think it’s all about interactions for cash, despite it being peanuts monetarily. No doubt, some will say me sending this is just more of the same but I simply find it funny that accounts like this make sweeping judgments based on next to no knowledge of a person’s character. Calling out bollocks as and when you see it is just a normal human reaction, the fact that telling someone they’re a wanker for mocking Down’s syndrome can even be considered “virtue signalling” is bonkers to me but there you go.

King Charles who loves killing foxes, birds, and badgers has been made Patron of the RSPCA. King Charles used his power to block a ban on Fox Hunting and to make sure it is the joke ban we currently have. RT if the RSPCA should remove him.

Details of how to buy a copy and of launch coming soon on my website.

@PMOsborneWriter @kent_nj @hedgehogpoetry Excellent news, Nigel.

Congratulations to @kent_nj & @hedgehogpoetry Love the cover and can't wait for my copy!

@RogerHare6 @Dreich25197318 A beauty Roger.
