I found this rather amusing. (if you know you know).
Appalling weather, yet the park was busy. 6x6min for me, but there were all sort of runners/bikers/joggers/walkers. Don’t think I’d have bothered if not rehabbing (and if I’d not deliberately moderated the drinking last night…).

I'd never seen a guy (not from the band) propose on stage at a gig before, there's a first for everything.

For whatever it’s worth (not going to pretend I particularly searched, just used correspondances that all seem to realistically matched), I might have finally traced some ancestors who lived in England….in the XIVth/XVth century. Suffolk…though probably still French, mind (served Charles VII).

@rosieisaholt.bsky.social A midweek laugh was much appreciated/needed. Merci.

Quite unusual to walk through a mostly deserted GdN while sober but not a bad feeling with three more points on board.

Johnny Marr played the possibly more expected Getting Away With It from Electronic to conclude the main set on Wednesday but as a latecomer to that project (though Disappointed made an impression before and I still love it), I'm more of a Twisted Tenderness man. youtu.be/g9dXWgYKutY?...

Fave Mary-Onettes song. Got so much joy out of Labrador Records for a few years. At the start posting bank notes to Sweden on an envelope just to get the early Radio Dept. EPs.

After struggling with ghosts over the weekend, first time I managed a series of forward one-footed jumps while staying supple on the ankle rather than landing flat and forcing things. There is hope.

The problem since you changed location/name, @sleafordgooner.bsky.social , is that sometimes I have to double-check (i.e. read the second word in the handle). I was briefly wondering what you were on about…
This is no laughing matter… We’ve something bigger than your energy bill coming next week.
