MicroBlog
Welcome to the Microblog section of my website, here you will find short snippets, linkposts and imageposts in my own little social stream. These posts are syndicated directly to my Mastodon and BlueSky accounts. Filter by topic >>>
I’ll be migrating my Mastodon presence shortly as 500.social closes. I decided to spin up my own instance on masto.host for longevity.

As poor a 45 minute performance as I’ve seen since the trip to Sunderland in August. Let’s hope they remember at least knowing each other in second half.

I went to hospital for an abdominal ultrasound scan this morning. Despite the setting, I'm definitely not pregnant - though I'll need to wait another week or so for any further results.

Last night I changed all of the YouTube iframes on my site to no cookie variants, with a few Loom and Strava iframes still to resolve. That leaves a few trinket.io code playgrounds with session cookies to work out how best to replace.

I've not noticed challenge leaderboards surfaced inside the Fulgaz app previously - nice addition. I'm exploring Fulgaz as a scenic option while I cannot ride/race with any intensity currently.

Here’s Fearghus out on his first walk in several months today. He’s doing well now, thought not without a fright or two in that time.

Charging my EV at Knutsford while on my way to Stoke City v Burnley with work. Hopefully my allegiance is not too obvious!

While I make my way very slowly back to Burnley, Caoimhe has switched off the German Shepherd guarding instinct to get in some rest. How gorgeous?

Issue 271 of London Clarets' magazine dropped through the letterbox today. Not satisfied watching 3 months of boring football, then writing about it, I'm now going to spend the next few days reading about it again!

I spent this evening attempting to automate hashtags through to RSS and beyond, using my website tags in the RSS feed. I'm really happy with the feed reader implementation, Mastodon would be great too - but for those pesky whitespaces.

Stevie pretending that he did not actually mean to sneak off into bed, again - I might forgive him if my attempt at automated hashtags in this post works.

Toyed with moving my inbox to Hey, but cleansed my inbox and unsubscribed from unnecessary newsletters (again) yesterday instead. Hardest to deal with: LinkedIn. I must have turned off over 50 email toggles from this settings page.

Succeeding where I previously failed. Ending a productive day by separating my website dashboard into tabbed pages, with separate tabs for posts, workouts, routes, evergreen albums, and static pages. Quitting for the night while I'm ahead.

As I moved over to 500.social last night, I thought I'd introduce myself. I'm based in Burnley, my posts usually feed in from my website. I talk about dogs (I have (more than) a few)🐕, riding my Wattbike, running and swimming (all badly)🚴♂️🏃♂️🏊♂️ bouldering 🧗♂️, learning code (slowly 🐌 ), watching Burnley FC home and away ⚽️, playing old video games (~ pre 2005)🕹️ and taking photographs of the world 🌎 (as it flies on by)📸⛰️🚉🏟️🚐.
