“Daddy, do you know that lady in the wheelchair?” ‘Yes I do, Filip. I referee her team sometimes. She’s called @amyconroy10’ “Then why is she on a screen in our @AldiUK store?” ‘I don’t know, dude.’ “Then you HAVE to ask her when you see her next time!”

It was good to finally meet @christolsonHT this morning, after a few years of occasional Twitter interactions. Who knows, @idletim, Chris and I might get out together on the bikes at some point!

Am I being a little slow here…? Does a 5% pay rise in one year, followed by a 4.3% rise the following year equate to 9.3% over 2 years?

100% this. I was HEAVILY pressurised by colleagues to strike years ago. Hated the whole toxicity thing. I promised myself that if striking ever became a thing again I would make my own decisions based on the issues. Decision made. Bring on tomorrow. #Respect
Decisions have been made, plans have been agreed, people have done what they think is right, at every level. Now tomorrow is about respect. Slagging each other off won’t help anyone.

I have been SO good this half term - tuna salad every day for lunch. But sometimes, just sometimes, things happen and a response like this is required…

Serious question - #WheresMegan? Of all of the arrivals covered on TV entering Westminster Abbey, there has been no sighting or mention of Megan… 🙄😔

There were 15 kids on my footy ref course (aged 15-18) last month. Is it any wonder referee retention is so low when parents cannot behave themselves?

I’m fortunate in as much as I have lots of experience in high pressure officiating environments. How would one of those kids have dealt with it today?

Such a lovely day out having Sunday lunch with my family in Preston, especially since my cantankerous 93-year-old grandad joined us! #TimeIsPrecious
