I feel like everyone should know about Goldcrests. They weigh just about 1/100th of a pound and look really grumpy all the time.

After much counselling from many of you, I kept over half my CDs - but I bought a new player, delivered today. Why? It’s rechargeable, it can be used with a single jack, and it connects to newer headphones and all my speakers by Bluetooth. Now, to music I haven’t heard for years!

17 years ago today, I stood on London bridge ready to end my life. Last year, I ran across it in the London Marathon, raising money for the Salvation Army who helped me off the streets of Dublin. This year, I’m living, working and studying in the Netherlands. 😊 #TherapyWorks

@FoodProfessor So sorry for your loss . May all the memories be a blessing.

Some personal news. Lost my brother this week. The guy who looked after me when I was a kid. The one who coached my baseball teams. The one who loved his hometown, Farnham, with everything he had. The one who taught me how to play hockey. The one who inspired me to become a DJ. The one who got me my first board seat at the Farnham youth center. The one who bought me my first car. The one who helped me start a business when I was young… that guy. He’s gone. Jean—“Charlie” at home—passed away wednesday at 61. A father of three, a grandfather of two, taken far too quickly by an aggressive cancer that gave us only weeks. I broke down when I found out in early March. I was at the Toronto airport, waiting for a flight. I’ll never forget that moment. I knew time wasn’t on our side. We asked him what he wanted to do. He wanted to see the Blue Jays play Los Angeles Dodgers and Shohei Ohtani in Toronto. My twin brother Patrick pulled off something incredible—planned a trip in days. Early April. The Fairmont Royal York. Even some curling, dressed as bananas with the “Peel,” before the game. The Jays lost 14–2. Didn’t matter. We were together. And deep down, we all knew it would be the last time. Tonight, I’m thinking about my father, who just lost his first son. No parent should have to live that. I’m thinking about his daughters—Roxanne, Laurie, Rosalie—his granddaughters Élise and Alice, and Alex, the father. An entrepreneur for over four decades. Vice-president of the Chamber of Commerce. President of the Farnham golf club. He loved Farnham—and Farnham loved him back. This is a brutal loss for our family. But that’s life. F*ck cancer. Rest easy, my big brother. Go join Mom—she’s been watching over us for nearly 17 years. Give her a hug for all of us. Salut, Charlie.

Italian investigative @reportrai3 just unleashed a political earthquake. They’ve obtained never-before-heard 2017 audio of Paolo Zampolli, the man who introduced Melania to Donald Trump and now sits in his inner circle as Special Envoy to the US speaking of a secret pre-election PACT with the First Lady. In the recorded call to a UN-linked contact, Zampolli reveals Melania allegedly told him: “Paolo don’t worry... you have our back. Everything that happened, you protect... we protect you.” This was right after the Trumps crushed the 2016 Daily Mail story accusing Melania of escort work with a massive lawsuit and settlement. Zampolli says they kept their word after victory, pulling him deep into the President’s trusted circle like family. The full audio and investigation air this Sunday on Rai3. The teaser is already exploding across Italy. Zampolli is raging, threatening lawsuits but the tape is out there. It always comes back to Epste!n

European Council meeting. For the first time in years there are no Russians in the room. Huge relief.

VERY SPECIAL TIME… with the legendary BUZZ ALDRIN, at his lovely Southern California home today. He’s very happy there and enjoys being close to his daughter nearby. Despite dealing with some common challenges of being 96, he’s still sharp and resilient, keeping up on all things

The weather is getting warmer, which means Canadians are getting excited for their summer plans.    If you’re looking for your next adventure — the Canada Strong Pass comes back this June, with free Parks Canada admission and more discounted experiences across the country.

👇I neglected to mention that Mr Justice Senan Allen boasted of his access to Enda’s private bathroom, while interviewing me about my protected disclosures (incredulous but it exists in official transcripts).

Cool eh. Would you put this rug in your living room?

A beautiful dawn. Trees now clothed in tender leaves. Birds singing Dogs playing Crabapples flowering Sheep grazing

Always such a pleasure calling the unhelpful lot at #ICBF who claim to not having any calf recording pocket books in stock and claim not to be printing any until 2027 - I guess the EU don’t give money for those farmer tools - and it’s not important to have records🙄 #AgTech #ICBF
