I genuinely think that the curtains closing on my coffin with that tune going on would be comforting for my loved ones 👌
My beautiful wife @alsalv.bsky.social has decided that she wants the theme from Minder played at her funeral. She's not ill or anything, just weird.

Hi! I pretty much never post anything these days, but having just finished reading Glitter Balls by @michelehowarth.com, I feel compelled to tell you all to buy a copy and read it! It made me laugh out loud, but I also cried, which is the sign of a fantastic book, IMHO 👌 x

Hi. My friend turned me into a Muppet (aren't you one already? I hear you say), and this is the result! 😆

Evening all. I keep getting told by @nportnell.bsky.social to get more involved on here, so, err, here I am! Please enjoy this pic of the Muppet worm, Slimey, having a picnic in Paris 💚

Evening all. Here are some hard-boiled egg people to wish you a Happy Easter! 🥚 x

Spotted this beauty today in Wetton, Staffordshire. Portal likely to lead to whatever is kept inside a cartoon witch’s hat.

Look at this gorgeous peacock greetings card that @alsalv.bsky.social found at her mum's house. We're guessing early 1970s.

I'm very open-minded, but this just did my head in! I returned to the room and gave it a go, but my brain said NO. I'll stick with Neneh 😄
#NowPlaying A live Don Cherry album recorded in 1971. I really wish I had recorded the reaction of @alsalv.bsky.social when she entered the room. She has quickly left the room. I'm not sure about it myself, so please tell me to stick with it. Definitely one to file under 'difficult jazz'.

This is excellent!
I found a recording of #TheWaterboys playing When Doves Cry by #Prince. I don't even remember doing it, but it was 1986 during the #FishermansBlues era.

I feel the need to tell you that @nportnell.bsky.social has gifted me and amazing food that I didn't know existed! It's even better than a bunch of flowers 😁

I can't wait to leave these shores for a few days and have a cultural/gastronomic adventure! The planning of this trip is keeping me going right now.
We are in desperate need of a holiday, so me and @alsalv.bsky.social are planning a trip to Antwerp. Art, architecture, food, and most importantly, record shopping! Do any of you have any experience of crate digging in this fine city? I'm told it's better for records than Brussels.

Best Christmas tree ever! 💜
Happy holidays folks, thanks for all your love and support this year ❤️🎄

Wow. There's some serious turntable chat going on here! I will benefit when it's sorted, though...😉
OK, what kind of fool spends a fortune on a fancy new turntable without realising that it doesn't play 45rpm records? Oh, that'll be me.

Hey. Hope you're all good. Despite this being one of the shittest Christmases on record, I am trying to remain hopeful for the new year, so I just thought I'd pop in and say,'Meep' 🧡 x

Evening. I'm still a bit all over the place with the Twatter/BSky thing, so apologies for not really knowing where I am 🙃 Anyway, keep on keeping on ✌️ x

I have to agree with Nick 😉

I think that my wife, @alsalv.bsky.social should take over the DJing duties in our kitchen more often. No melancholic folky nonsense this evening. This is just a perfect pop song.*

*Daughter just asked why we were listening to a Centreparcs advert. We had no idea!

Hey. It's good to see so many old Twatter friends popping up on here. I'm trying to distract myself from everything, so I thought I'd share a Cher quote with you 💚 Peace and love ❤️ x

As I said on the Twatter yesterday, it will take me a while to fully engage on here, but I'll pop in now and again to get used to it! ✌️

Evening. I thought I should at least drop in to say hello 👋 🙃 x

Evening all. This book helped me a lot when I was in a bad place, and the stoic philosophy is something I turn to in difficult times. It also helps me get perspective on the daily grind of life! A book won't take away your depression, but it can give you hope ❤️ #WMHD2023
