Good luck to .@WestHam youth in tonight’s FA Youth Cup Final. My dad’s old friend, the late John Charles, was captain when we won in 1962-63. A true pioneer of the game, sadly now often ignored, but never forgotten. His son .@18days keeps his memory alive.

I’m privileged to have had done amazing things & met many interesting people over the course of my life. Yet, 11 years ago, I accomplished my greatest achievement thus far: Finishing the 2012 #LondonMarathon. My very best wishes to everyone competing today - You’ve got this!

It wasn’t .@CrayValleyPM’s day after conceding a 94th min equaliser to end our season 1 point shy of the playoffs before a record home crowd of 787. For me, it’s about real football, real people, real hopes, highs & lows, & no primadonnas. Roll on next season. #grassrootsfootball

Sending my very best wishes to all at .@CrayValleyPM for today’s push for a place in the play-offs. It’s free entry on the gate, so if you’re in the area and fancy some #grassrootsfootball, there’ll be a warm welcome awaiting you at the Artic Stadium.

Sending my very best wishes to, in my mind, the funniest man on the planet .@Barry_Humphries, for a speedy recovery, having been admitted to hospital. He truly is a true master of comedy and timing. #BarryHumphries

Laughed to myself at the nearby MP for calling out a political opponent over avoiding a public debate - The very same MP stormed out of the studio during a live .@bbchw debate that we were taking part in & later refused to engage with me. ‘People who live in glasshouses…’

My father lived his life to the full, as you can tell by this old photo of him, that I’ve just rediscovered. I’ve enough stories to write a book about him. Maybe one day…

A interesting & scarce Ashantee Medal from the 1873-74 campaign (Third Ashanti War), awarded to Pte. Asumo of Glover’s Hausa Force. One of the many freed slaves recruited by Sir John Glover, who enlisted into the nucleus of what later became the West African Frontier Force.

Just seen the replay from the Everton v Tottenham game. Definitely a red card, even though Harry Kane hit the ground quicker than Spurs are about to go down the premier league table.

Just been listening to an old Pogues CD in the car. Whether you like him or not, Shane MacGowan really is one of the most underrated lyricists of the 1980’s.
