I’ve been a German football aficionado since the age of twelve. My bedroom wall was plastered with posters of Bayern Munich; Franz Beckenbauer was my idol. More than three decades later, I was sitting in a Munich beer garden last August, talking to locals about their football heroes. An elderly gent to my left leaned […]
My cousin Rachel works in fashion PR, and last week she was going on about how much money influencers make these days. “You’d be shocked,” she said. “Some of them earn more than doctors.” That got me thinking about Hanni Treweek net worth and how she’s managed to build her own success alongside being married […]
I was having my morning coffee on Saturday when the cutest photos imaginable showed up on my Instagram feed. This tiny baby, all wrapped up in the softest little knitted jumper, sporting a cloud-print beanie that nearly made me weep with joy. Then it hit me. I was looking at the newest member of the […]
I was watching Netflix last month when my neighbour knocked. “You seen that Bank of Dave thing?” she asked, settling into my sofa without invitation. Three hours later, we’d binged the whole thing. But what struck me wasn’t just Dave’s banking revolution; it was the woman quietly keeping him grounded through it all. That woman […]
Last week, I was chatting with my accountant about my pension contributions when he dropped a proper bombshell. “You might want to check the latest news about salary sacrifice,” he said, looking rather glum. “The government’s got their eyes on pension perks again.” Turns out he wasn’t being dramatic. HMRC plans for a tax raid […]
God, I still remember my mate Oscar going on about Bitcoin back in 2017. “It’s gonna make us rich!” he kept saying whilst I was thinking he’d lost his marbles. Fast forward to now, and I’m properly kicking myself for not listening. But here’s what really gets me: while Oscar was buying a few quid’s […]
Last Tuesday night, I was scrolling through Twitch at gone midnight (don’t judge me), when I stumbled across this massive bloke from Arkansas absolutely losing his mind over a horror game. The chat was mental; thousands of people throwing money at their screens just to watch Case Dylan Baker, better known as CaseOh, jump out […]
Right, I’ll be honest with you. Back in 2016, I was rubbish at golf. Absolutely terrible. My handicap was embarrassing, and after another shocking round at my local course in Yorkshire, my mate Harry said, “Just watch this Rick Shiels bloke on YouTube.” I thought he was having a laugh. YouTube for golf tips? Come […]
Two years back, I was standing in a massive queue for a brew at the Golf Show in Harrogate. Proper busy, everyone is pushing about trying to see the latest drivers and putters. Then this familiar northern voice pipes up behind me: “Alright, lads, anyone fancy a quick chat about that new TaylorMade?” I spin […]
James Cameron’s Avatar film world is expanding once more with Avatar: Fire and Ash, the third instalment in the game-changing Avatar series. After the emotional depth and sheer visual majesty of The Way of Water, audiences had been eagerly anticipating the follow-up. Now that the pre-release leak of the official trailer has dropped, we finally […]
Lucy Bronze? She basically went full warrior mode at Euro 2025. Played the entire tournament with a fractured tibia—yeah, a fractured tibia. And get this: she didn’t just limp around, she actually thrived. Scored a huge goal in the quarter-final against Sweden, then coolly slotted home the winning penalty in the shootout against Spain. Honestly, […]
I chopped off twelve inches of hair last Tuesday. My hairdresser nearly cried. But I’d been staring at the same long, boring hair for three years. Time for change. The bob was calling my name. My sister thought I’d lost my mind. “You’ll regret it by Friday,” she said. Friday came and went. I’m still […]
