So, I think it's about time I actually post something. This is me pretty much:
Old school sounding metal.
Old school sounding not-quite-metal.
Beer that is brown or darker.
Food that is spicier than a 3 on the trusted 5 chilli scale.
I'm simultaneously a child and a pensioner.

Dear power tool making companies, do you sit around a boardroom table to discuss the minimum amount of sawdust the dust collector should retain? After doing some sanding, I'm lucky to have 2 grams in the dust collector and about 20 metric tonnes it seems all up my hallway and my living room. Cheers.

My favourite day of the year: when Facebook reminds me of my dad's excellent contribution to the Christmas decorations. Gets me every time 😂

There's only so much sleepiness one can endure before one has to employ Tony Martin screaming "NIGHTWING FLIES AGAIN!" into your ears to stay awake.

As the IT representative, I thought our tree could do with an upgrade.
I'm hoping these sticks of RAM will speed-up the wind-down to the Christmas break.

Decorating is much like going to the gym for me. I put it off and off but when I actually do it, sorts me swede right out.
I can charge 50 schnook an hour if anyone's interested 😂

Legitimately might have a Top 15 Albums of The Year list this year. Last minute swatting up has revealed some absolute pearlers. And that's probably with a huge band missing out entirely. Didn't expect this to happen at all.
This from the guy who doesn't believe in ranking music BTW #metalsky \m/

For Thursdays WOBHM, the 2 albums I initially thought of had rather "unfriendly" album artwork, but like clockwork, this popped in to my head so all is good. Get it? Clockwork? Quartz? I'll fetch my coat. #metalsky \m/

Well, that was my first time driving in any modicum of snow and it seems everyone's brain just goes into Ultra Battery Saver Mode (I'm including myself in this)

#NowPlaying Cloven Hoof- Heathen Cross. This one passed me by earlier this year due to house moving stress. Quality stuff, on the AOTY shortlist \m/

It's getting to that time of year where I'm waiting for my final provisional Album of the Year contender to drop. By which I mean my second of two Album of the Year contenders because not many people sound like Venom or Manilla Road these days.

Oh cool, I'm seeing Anthrax, Kreator and Testament this Saturday. I've been so busy being an old git worried about flooring, door thresholds and skirting boards I forgot what fun was!

This is a new series, entitled Weird Old British Heavy Metal. An old, obscure album for you to check out or keep an eye out for, presented without context. I have definitely listened to them once, can't vouch for quality or taste 😂.
