⚽️ Yeah really dislike the players on this Dutch team. Hopefully Japan will score again.

🏀 Ok it’s been a long time since I watched the NBA, but even in the 90s it wasn’t this physical was it? Just feels a little more slappy.

More planes in the air.

The best colours in Ontario. Beats the never ending white landscape of winter.

⚽️ Morocco is playing a cracking game. But Vini comes out clutch with one of those strikes that leaves his boot one second before anyone expects it.

Love capturing aircraft’s passing by.

Nice way to start the weekend with a short trip to our old city farm.

🇵🇾 I’m not proud of it but I had to check where Paraguay actually was in South America. Properly landlocked country in the heart of the continent.

The world we have is incredibly far displaced from the want many of us have. This is normal. What I have struggled with the most is the oceans between people. The previously, generally agreed upon norms, of what was and simply wasn’t acceptable, have been completely destroyed.

Instead we find genuinely disruptive and morally bereft leaders, new money oligarchs and the rules of the jungle have taken over.

Is the world we are building and leaving for the next generation is much worse than the one we inherited?

⚽ World Cup day. Kids are excited. With 48 teams, it’s actually amazing how many teams I want to do well in this tournament. FIFA are a horrible, arrogant and corrupt organisation, but they know how to put on a good show I guess.

My mayor’s Muslim.
My bagel’s Jewish.
My Christian Dior.
Knicks in four.

For years Siri has sucked so bad. The worst AI ever. I can’t remember how many times I’ve added a bunch of swear words after or before the word Siri. Will these updates make it any better? Honestly don’t care because they should have done this a long while ago (instead of putting their heads in the sand).

Honestly the only ‘feature’ that I am excited about is the fact that my phone might be 30% fast or some shit like that.

Carl didn’t win. Kinda seriously bummed me out. I was super ready to celebrate the success of a friend. It’s ok there will be other awards no doubt.

Sat, 06 Jun 2026 20:11:41 -0400

At the Doug Wright Awards for Carl.

First trip of our summer holidays has been booked. Great Wolf Lodge it is. Never heard of the place, but clearly located across North America.

My summer Field Notes. Really looking forward to tearing through these.

It was Zane’s birthday. So of course it was a big themed birthday with a dollop of Mario Kart themed karting.

Been a tough day. I knew something was just not right from the start of the day. I just couldn’t articulate it clearly. The only wonderful moment is now. End of the day. Kids in bed. Cup of tea. Cool spring evening that only needs a t-shirt outside.

Something about open skies with those colours and a plane always makes me smile.

Been cooking with Kashmiri chilli powder. What an ingredient. Just incredible. Soo good and makes a huge difference to curries.

⚽️ Great end to the season for Manchester United and actually a bit of optimism for the season ahead. For several years, watching this team has been hard work. It’s been fun under Carrick.

Costco on a Saturday morning is chaos. Thankfully we’ve honed into what we want mostly so it’s relatively quick to get in and out.

The robins have hatched which is nice to see.

🍿 Finished watching: The Hunting Wives. Yasmine suggested we watch this. We nearly gave up after episode 2, but the murder mystery element kept us coming back for more. In spite a lot of elements we did not like.

🏆 This year the World Cup is actually happening in North America, where I live. And yet there is literally no chance I am paying $1000 for ticket at the nosebleeds. Its such flagrant exploitation, but there will be enough crazies that will pay those prices.
