A handful of gig memories from 2025.
I’ve been revisiting bands from my teenage years, and was lucky enough to see Oasis, Ocean Colour Scene, Echobelly, Sleeper, Babybird, and Cast along the way.

A weekend away in Cambridge meant I could pop along to see @cambridgecityfc.bsky.social in a five-goal thriller against Bowers & Pitsea. Sadly, the hosts went down 3–2.
A super friendly club with an amazing setup. I’d love to visit again in the near future.

First book of 2026
The Five by @hallierubenhold.bsky.social
A cracking bit of social history that pulls you away from the usual Ripper sensationalism and back to the realities of 1888.

Not much in the way of colour around the nursery, but Camellia ‘General Colleti’ is bringing a welcome splash with it’s winter blooms.

Just discovered the heavy riffs of #Ironrat on @bandcamp.com and treated myself to their album Monument. Arrived today, and the band even threw in a cracking pin badge and sticker. 🤘

A dreadful first half saw @theshots.bsky.social go in 4–0 down at the break against Solihull Moors. A brighter second-half showing came too late as a fifth was conceded. Josh Barrett scored a consolation before Christy Grogan was sent off, finishing the match with ten men.

I’ve been trying to decide what album would be my last of 2025, and as it’s the 10-year anniversary of Lemmy leaving us, I’ve gone with #Overkill by @motorhead-official.bsky.social to kick me into the New Year 🤘🏻

Been getting into #TheSherlocks over the past year, and their latest album Everything Must Make Sense was a lovely surprise under the tree this morning, thank you @louisef1.bsky.social. Soundtrack for later, post Christmas lunch. Merry Christmas! 🎄

Strangers in the Night
A double live album released by British hard rock band #UFO in 1979 that I picked up in a local charity shop. I’ve given it a clean-up with #LegendVinyl, and surprisingly it’s in almost immaculate condition for vinyl that’s not far off being 50 years old!

One of my favourite plants are cacti 🌵 it was great to see the large specimens at @cubotanicgarden.bsky.social. The collection of cacti inside the Arid Lands glasshouse was fascinating.

We spent the best part of today taking a leisurely stroll around @cubotanicgarden.bsky.social. The trees were putting on their autumn show of colour.
Of particular interest was the Averrhoa carambola (star fruit tree), which was fruiting in the greenhouse.

Love seeing the fruits on the Arbutus unedo, they add a little splash of colour to the garden through autumn.
Although edible, I’ve found them to have an unexciting flavour, though they’re often used to make jams, preserves, and liqueurs.
