AKA Peter Metalli.

20,000 roads I've been down down down and they all led me straight back to Ireland

Often by a river watching boats go by!

Just did a quick blitz of music-liking Bsky accounts.

RIP Mick Ralphs.

Genuinely wore this album out when I was a teenager - had to buy a second copy.

Should have been 96 today.

Stella from Camden shouts out her #BikeBus + throws an invite to all politicians 🎉🥳🚍🚲 @camdencyclists.bsky.social
