Video hosting for my BearBlog
In one quick experiment last night, I tested Bunny for video hosting. That was really simple, embedding an iframe with the video url as src, and applying a minimal amount of styling in the theme to make the borders look better.
I then added my Clips section to the site, which I'll need to replicate on my front page. If costs are sensible, I will migrate all of my youtube hosted retro gaming content here.
.It does seem to use a cookie, which I need to look at, but I don't think tracking anything beyond the session.

FC United of Manchester 1 Bamber Bridge 0
I headed down to Manchester to catchup with Craig this afternoon, taking in FC United of Manchester's 1-0 Trophy win over Bamber Bridge. Adam Le Fondre deflected a late ball into the net in front of the home terrace, in a largely uneventful game.

Listen Cardiff and listen Westminster. This is Caerphilly. And we are telling you we want a better deal. Wales is at the dawn of a new leadership, a new beginning.

Weblog.lol interactions
I've not noticed the interactions block on a weblog.lol site previously. I don't see whether it receives webmentions or from Bluesky. Might be an option if my current Bear experiment fails...

Fan Forum - October 2025
Given that Vickie has been in Portugal for the week, and I cannot watch Burnley's output on, ugh, X, ugh - I'm sure she will be looking forward to tonight's feature length viewing!

Hamstring Injury!
I'm not sure how, but I seem to have picked up an injury. I've felt a pain across the top of my right quadriceps all day, but on further exploration have a couple of painful areas to massage out on the hamstrings.
Sadly I wont be racing for CLS Chill in the Zwift Ladder tomorrow. Will be back soon.

Hartlepool Parkrun 521
We started off the day with our annual visit to Hartlepool Parkrun as we are up in the North East for the weekend ahead of the Great North Run tomorrow.
My legs seem to be moving very well, with good form, and my pace seems to be flying back with Mounjaro induced weight-loss. On the other hand my endurance and fuelling have definitely taken a hit, feeling out of gas throughout.
I held onto around 5:15/km throughout for a 26:40 finish - my fastest 5km in two years, and my fastest Hartlepool Parkrun. Very happy with that considering I did not have the energy to hit the pedal - though I'll need to ease off considerably tomorrow.
