Just want to say to any of my pals on here, or indeed on any social platform, that if you need to talk to someone my DM's are always open. I might not be able to help, but I can listen. Y'know?

Anyway - just wanted to say that.

Wow. I did not know that Alfred Russell Wallace (co-discoverer of evolution by natural selection) wrote a book in 1904 about the biological potential for life on other planets, and I've just found this extraordinary paragraph setting out the insanity of atmospheric pollution [1/3]. In 1904!

Controversial opinion: I prefer the album version of 'I'll Sail This Ship Alone'. Still a pleasant noise, though. #forgotten80s

Who are these weirdos who don't like Deacon Blue? Pah.

Anyway, here's Mr. Kool and his gang. With a better tune that that one they played the other week...

Tell Whitney I found out where broken hearts go. They go 'Bang Bang Bang Bang'. #forgotten80s

Graceland is still an absolute monster of an album. If anyone knows where I left my CD copy, I'd be grateful if you'd let me know... #forgotten80s

This Stray Cats thing turned up on the Rayo #forgotten80s premium station this week. Great driving music, to be fair.

This isn't a terrible song, once it gets going. It takes a little time. #forgotten80s

Hiya!

I do like a bit of Matt Bianco. Not always a popular opinion on this hashtag, I know... #forgotten80s

That's me done - thanks as ever for your company on a Sunday evening (and your birthday wishes!), thanks to @matthewjrudd.bsky.social for putting it all together, and we'll catch up again next weekend for another 2 hours of the same. Have a great week! #forgotten80s

Not heard this second ND track - I approve. Great tune. #forgotten80s

There's a tune in this Clash tune, apparently. Wish I could hear it. #forgotten80s #musicaldifferences

Stay on these roads.
At the roundabout, take the second left.
At the junction, stay in the left lane.
You have arrived at your destination. #ahasatnav #forgotten80s
