Picked this up for 50p in a local shop.

Interesting typography with the upside down small h substituting some, but not all, instances of the letter y.

Anyone know if this was common in printed Welsh language material?

Why, when I hear 'Knights of Cydonia' by Muse, does this come into my head

The outfits from the 'Slow Hand' routine were used for the #LegsAndCo photo shoot for the 'Best of #totp' LP.

A year ago today, I started using the Finch self-care app to boost my mental health.

This little birb has been a source of motivation and comfort in what's been some dark times these past twelve months.

Here's to more adventures with you, Billy Birb.

Quote with a pic of you in the 80s.

Me in 1987, possibly on the day of my 6th birthday party - my brother is in the background.

...funny how I shared a memory about Smash Hits magazine earlier, and the radio station I'm listening to has just played the highest charting single in the UK for a 1983 front cover star:

Not bought personally, but the first to come into our house.

Coincided with my seventh birthday - and the discovery of a magazine about pop music with song lyrics was a big one to me.

Although I didn't get all of the humour, I could tell there was a particular style to the content.
