I’ve woken up thinking about a species of animal. Not sure why.

Can you guess which animal?

One guess per post please.

As many guesses as you like.

No clues.

I’ll send the first person to get it right a postcard or something.
Friends fear he’s watching Hal Hartley films again.

I love a radio challenge so I’ve been enjoying Sara Cox’s work this week.

It must be absolutely gruelling and soul-destroying to be out running every day and have to endure what appears to be a never ending cycle of tedious conversations and links with dullard presenters.

Well done Sara, well done

Oh yeah!

I helped a blind man cross the road today and then was instantly repayed by my best visit to a charity shop in years.

I love it when you go to a gig and it’s so brilliant that you’re still obsessed about it two weeks down the line.

And it’s especially good when bits of it keep showing up on the YouTubes too…

I seem to be having an issue with my work email and I’m not receiving a lot of things I’m being sent.

Also, lots of people don’t seem to be getting the emails that I send them.

You’ll notice I’m describing this as an issue and not a problem.

I know that Everything is Horrible and Sad and Broken.

But, currently, there is Nothing that is p*ssing me off more than hearing Fearne Cotton adverts on podcasts trying to sell me trips to the Old Course Hotel in St Andrews.

Another day of this then.

Good luck everyone.

You don't want to come back from Sorrento to a dead cat.

If you were to take some time to design an experience that would guarantee me the ultimate horrific and infuriating experience then this dentist and their waiting room would be hard to beat.

Looking forward to Ant and Dec’s new Saturday night ITV show as they look to find Britain’s New Prince.

The email I respond to quickest in every job I’ve ever had is the yearly invite to the Christmas night out.

That one is batted away like a goddamn table tennis smash.

Listening to this Lankum thing on NTS2.

Good use of an hour, I reckon

I’m sitting ten seats away from the lead singer of Deacon Blue.

That’s fine though, I won’t let it ruin my night.

Today I celebrated my one thousandth hour of watching short videos where someone draws some lines across two pieces of wood in a clever way in order to make them join together all nice.

I have never wanted to see any of these videos they just keep happening to me.

Please send help.

I did a wee bit of field recording today.

I’d forgotten how much I enjoyed it.

I often forget that The Blue Nile released four albums.

But when I do remember about “High” and have a wee listen to “High” I remember how much I enjoy listening to “High”.

This has been a post about the album “High” by The Blue Nile.

Things I did not expect to happen today but did:

1. Having a sit down in Lockerbie Library and having a nice chat with someone who used to be in Belleruche

Thanks Universe!

You’re the best!

Dear Universe,

I’d quite like you to help me find one ticket so I can go see Gillian Welch and David Rawlings in Glasgow next week.

Thanks Dude.

🙏
