Watched the 1st episode of House of Guinness last night, and that's all I'll watch. Terrible TV, zero quality, structure was all over the place, and a belief that lots of violence will sell it.

#booksky delivery today, after reading a '25 top 10 by @philbc3.bsky.social which had some very interesting books in it, I picked up these 2 from it.
Grass by Sheri S Tepper, and Dark Eden by Chris Beckett, both UK HB, and it seems the Beckett has been signed also which wasn't listed.

Just finished watching #Strangerthings which was ultimately disappointing, last 2 seasons dragged on. Almost rescued it by including Prince, Pixies and Bowie in the last episode, but interest was lost way before that.

Got hugely excited whilst watching Tinker Tailor.... last night, as when Smiley is clearing out Controls flat there was a clearly visable Dual CS505-4 turntable box (being used as storage) 😂😂 my family did not share same excitement funnily enough. #vinyl love my Dual.

After 10 green arrows I've had 4 red in a row, dropped from 552k to 895k very frustrating! #FPL
Only my 2nd - 4 taken now, moving Rice + Richards >> Bruno G + Mukiele, 0.m itb
Hoping Keane starts from his mystery injury. Not confident on a green arrow though.
Good luck everyone!
