I have added bunting and a gull. This is how it's looking.

Trying out the new gig camera at 300mm. Pretty pleased!

I will be using the camera at a gig for the first time on Friday. Exciting!

This is how my Robin Hood's Bay illustration is shaping up. I have started to add texture and details. There will be bunting!

Orbury Common "The Traditional Dance Of Orbury Common"

One of the best albums of 2022 for me, fantastic folky dance music. Lathe cut edition of 25.

Soul Coughing "Live 2024"

Yes they got back together and did shows. I wish they'd come back to the UK.

Can't believe I haven't listened to this until now, it's great!

Meridian Brothers "VI"

Wonderfully quirky Cumbia from this band from Colombia.

Working on something new...a view of Robin Hood's Bay very much in my style. Texture and details to follow.

My take on AI music is it's a leveler. It's all equally shit. You don't need skill to create a prompt so you're no better than anyone else creating AI music.

Instagram is like...steal someone else's video, make it smaller and put your own annoying text around it, oh, and make sure it cuts off before the end.

I put away all the boxes of records over the past week. They are now all on the shelves, alphabetically.

The great thing was finding records I wished I'd got and discovered I had, in fact, got them.

Can't a tech company create an AI which actually promotes and supports women, rather than attacking them?

All the shit started 10 years ago with David Bowie's death and everything has got worse since that moment. Will it ever get better?

Without revealing your actual age, what's something you remember that if you told a younger person they wouldn't understand?

The cats are allowed in the loft again! Frida was very pleased to be able to do so.
