Old enough to know better. Stupid enough to care about it. Daft enough to keep on doing it anyway. Creates VISION ON SOUND for FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL, and draws a bit 😀

The concept is brilliant, the Tr*mp parallels are interesting, the “Hong Kong Harry” stuff and the party are both as dubious as hell, but the guest cast and the location work in that most overused and ruined part of London is utterly glorious…
…this morning I rewatched TNA: THE MIDAS TOUCH 😀

We also gave (JUDGE) MARIANNE from Walter Presents a go, hoping it might scratch the ASTRID itch. Fun, with a slight LA LAW vibe. Very promising.

After it got mentioned in a recent show recording, I popped a disc of THE NEW AVENGERS into the player earlier… quite disconcerting to calculate that Patrick Macnee was seven years younger than I am now when he was appearing in this…

I seem to have made the colossal tactical error of pre-ordering a thing from Not-that-amazing-zon again… 😕
Oddly enough, it’s so long since I put the order in that I was genuinely surprised when I realised that it had gone to them 😂

A sudden realisation that when the WALK OF THE WEEK finally applies for charitable status as part of a national mental health campaign to get more people outdoors, it may have to adopt Elmer Fudd as its mascot...

Caught the end of this film this evening… it prompted me to dig out this strange and now slightly anachronistic beastie… 😂

FizzBok reminds me it’s three years since I did a series of images for what was intended to be book 2 of NtD…
I did about fifteen, of which this was the fourth…
The book never happened, but this is a nice reminder of what might have been 🙂

Since I got hobbled by Slippery Stiles on the last Walk of the Week, the rest of the walkers will be out and about without me this week, so if you happen to see them, give them a wave or a smile, stop for a chat (some of them would really hate that!), and take a few snapshots for the album.

@gruntleigh.bsky.social with regards to your messages (I still can’t seem to attach pictures to them) My Beloved’s advice is to simply nest and do whatever makes you feel better 😀
