“Charmingly eccentric” inadvertent badass. Expert procrastinator. I’ve written three crime novels and I’m now switching genres. Would like to be literary but it seems I’m mostly here for #totp on a Friday night
Legs & Co do corduroy and flat caps. Bluesky dads are almost certainly saddened by that #totp

Aw, go on, play Nazareth! Manny lived next door and they owned the recording studio over the road - do I get Bluesky #totp points for that? Any kind of cool is hard to achieve in Fife….

UB40 always looked altogether too pleased with themselves for a band who made such shite music #totp

Not been here for a while. Evening, fellow #totp folk

Three ages of #totp watching. When we were young we turned it up and our parents turned it down. Now Gen X are turning the subtitles on. Or just me?

A medley that doesn’t make your heart sink. Didn’t like Quo back in the day but find them quite endearing now. #totp

Eleven year old me loathed Dollar. Fifty-five year old me still does. #totp

So true…
I've never agreed with the "stop the boats" flagshaggers.

Until 20 seconds ago...

Between Siouxsie and Toyah that’s an ozone layer hole’s worth of hairspray. #totp

Is the Birdie Song still a staple of wedding discos and the like? #totp

Evening all. Good week? #totp

It seems Emma is more of a Leann Rimes fan than I am #totp

Doesn’t he look like Dec from Ant and…. Or is it Dec? #totp

I believe that back in the 1800's, Mendelsohn's latest efforts were played on a Friday night in the local town hall and all the cool kids in the audience would write snide comments on parchment with quill and pass them around for their general amusement.

At least this lot probably went to drama school when you had singing lessons. Given this episode I’ll settle for competent (I went too but can still only stay in tune if you stand me between two people who actually can sing! #totp

I didn’t know Natalie Imbruglia had another single. Suspect it didn’t trouble the charts and airwaves for long.. #totp

And at least he’s made a sartorial effort even if that is a made-up bow tie #totp

It’s not quite interpretive dance but I’m not quite sure what this is. In many ways… #totp
