There’s a really important game of football today. Really pleased to be here at the Wham Stadium to see Accrington Stanley take on b*!?ard rovers. #accringtonStanley #onStanleyOn #noScotlandNoParty

Leaving London earlier this afternoon, and heading back to Burnley to vote. Hoping that this incompetent self-serving party in government has made itself unelectable for a generation or longer. #generalElection2024 #ge2024

A quick note about setting up a second rss feed on my site for my fitness activities which are excluded from my main feed.

In more cool news, the volume of #Burnley content on @feedle@mastodon.social tripled over the last few days, as my site feed finally made it into the index.

I've made some final(🤣) amends to my new Kirby CMS site - site search, and a lightweight social share widget.

I took advantage of a recent work trip to take a few photographs around Cheltenham Spa Train Station, run by GWR.
The main station is a striking white building, and though the facilities are limited to a coffee shop on the Southbound platform and a conservatory of a waiting room, there is an excellent GCM coffee shop over the road from the station.

Have been testing out the April 2024 data update pack for CM0102 as Stanley - naturally this very kind offer was declined. On Mac (Air M1) using Crossover. #championshipManager #retrogaming #burnleyFC

Spent the evening watching the 2024 WHWR Inspiration Evening Webinar on Zoom.
It's an awfa long time since I last trained seriously for this race, and its an awfa long time to spend running none stop. But I did leave feeling slightly inspired.
Lucy Colquhoun was on talking about her (still standing) course record from 2007. Lucy won the first ultramarathon I ever raced - the Glen Ogle 33 all the way back in 2011.

If Vincent Kompany is going to leave this summer, to wherever that may be, I hope that he goes quickly so that we can move on from what has been a pretty dreadful season. I don’t see any of the (3x!) rumours being debunked, so I’m sceptical he leads us into next season.

The season ends as it started, with a beautiful warm and sunny day here at Turf Moor.
Come on you clarets:

It may be a little quiet in Bolton today. London bound for the League 1 play-off final on the big green bus (which is big, but apparently not green). #bwfc #boltonWanderers #efl

I discovered this abandoned football pitch adjacent to the Leeds-Liverpool canal in Burnley when I first moved here 6 years ago. It is squeezed in to a patch of land between Thompson Park and Bank Hall Park.
Substantial enough to have a covered stand running the width of the pitch, which is fully enclosed, yet long forgotten. Nobody has played out of this ground in all the time that I've lived here. I've not found out who played here, or what became of them.

Photo of the junction of New Hall Street and Abel street in Burnley. When I first arrived here, this entire area was grassed over awaiting redevelopment, the earlier terracing presumably having been cleared. The local community used to hold an amazing bonfire here each November.
Taken from Fearghus' walk this morning.

London bound with BFCSC for our last away game of the season at Tottenham. We cannot secure safety in the league today, but will be promoted to the Championship if we do not better the result of #nffc. #burnleyFC #premierLeague #mastodonFC

With all of the Podenco blanket dwelling and hide and seek, it's really not unusual to lose a dog or two in our house. Here is a prime example of what can only be described as 'shithousery' from Stevie last night. #podencos #dogsOfMastodon

A quick shot of Caoimhe and Leo from their morning walk today on the Leeds Liverpool Canal near Reedley Marina. Caoimhe is getting excited about a potential breakfast top-up on the tow-path. #podencos #dailydog

At Turf Moor this afternoon for Burnley v Newcastle United. We won’t stay up or go down today, but we really need to at least match whatever #nffc can do unless we want to be promoted to the championship next season. #burnleyfc #utc #mastodonfc
