Top Dog @ TravelDog PR. Look after tour ops, hotels. Love wife Debbie, Banjo (my Flat Coated Retriever), London Irish (RIP), West Ham & most sports.

Yesterday I went to see my friend Belinda for more ink!

Here's me with one of my gym groups!

Big up, Uncle Ian Wright for speaking up, and he's 100% correct.

Look how Qatar got dragged when they were hosting the World Cup.

@SirShahAnalyst Where is Brian Johnson? Dreadful oversight.

[Corinthian Travel @CorinthianTvl]

Can anyone guess where you might encounter this gentleman?

[Bamboo Travel @BambooTravel]

It's not too late to book that last minute family holiday!

@AndyLynes Hi Andy, 100%. No one has manners anymore or cares about other people. Depressing.

[Mick Thompson @TravelDogPR]

Cheers!

[Corinthian Travel @CorinthianTvl]

So where is this? This is easy!

[Bamboo Travel @BambooTravel]

Have a good weekend everyone!

I've taken hundreds of pictures of Debbie over the years and this is right up there among my favourites! Taken in Norway.

We lost dad in 2003 at the age of 73, young by today's standards. Today would have been hi 97th birthday. Happy birthday dad.

Debbie line dancing on our recent @cunardline cruise board Queen Victoria (our favourite!). I'd never remember the moves...

@LfcNuel What is the source of this list? Shocking if true.

In January this year, I joined Pure Gym which had just opened and is close to where we live. Other than a lot of cycling, I hadn't used a gym for over 20 years. It has a clever app, and yesterday this popped up. I combine spin classes with other weight classes and love it.

Us in the Canaries recently!

Karren Brady’s promise of “a world-class team in a world-class stadium” rings even more hollow now. West Ham United should never have moved to a soulless public athletics track. Great move for the board but not for the fans. Leaving Upton Park made sense for commercial reasons but not sporting/atmosphere.

Daniel Levy was right. The Olympic Stadium should have been knocked down and a proper football stadium built there. It is a good site. But the Olympic lobby and politicians got all protective and precious about the 2012 legacy. How often does this country need a huge athletics arena anyway?

Yes, West Ham won a European trophy since they’ve left Upton Park. But London Stadium was always a problem, always a passion-killer, fans distant from the ones they love, the players, and limited potential for increased revenue streams.

Other reasons behind club’s demise. Lack of leadership in the boardroom. Recruitment an issue, too. What a mess. Record losses, fears over future of Fernandes, Summerville and Nuno, intensified protests against chairman Sullivan.  

Relegation likely. Two points adrift of safety following 3-1 defeat to Newcastle. Wretched goal difference (-22) compared to Spurs’ (-9). Spurs need only a point from Chelsea away (hard) or David Moyes’ Everton at home to guarantee survival and condemn West Ham. Can Moyes do West Ham a favour? The club who let him go. West Ham need to beat ex-Spur Joe Rodon and Leeds at home anyway.

West Ham look doomed to the drop. They will return but need better ownership. And many of their fans have been warning of this perfect storm for some time. #WHUFC

Have a great weekend everyone! And don't try this at home!
