In case anyone is wondering what I've been doing while away from Bluesky, this is one thing I did! 😁

Hey everyone!

I've been away! Not to prison, just not on here! 😁

I've started up the app for the first time in a while, and thought I'd say hi.

I see these days, in the UK, I suddenly need to verify my age to be able to see a nicely turned ankle! What gives? 🤔

Every couple of years I create some custom shoes on the Converse website. These are the last few pairs.

The newest ones arrived today and are at the front, with the oldest at the back.

Unfortunately, the website has fewer and fewer options each time, but I'm still happy with this year's! 🙂

Song lyrics I heard today #11

The second song from the Dr Who episode Love and Monsters:

You got me runnin', goin' out of my mind
You got me thinkin' that I'm wastin' my time
Don't bring me down

I watch the Dr Who episode Love and Monsters today, so 2 ELO lyrics for you. First:

Sun is shinin' in the sky
There ain't a cloud in sight
It's stopped rainin', everybody's in the play
And don't you know
It's a beautiful new day? Hey

I haven't had a girlfriend since 1988.

It's now 2025 and probably time to let go of my obsession with Jessica Rabbit that I've had ever since she blew me a kiss when I saw her performing in a club. It's time to move on, though!

But look at her! It's so hard to just give her up. 😍

Did anybody else have problems with Bluesky being down last night?

I was going to post the funniest and most insightful post ever unleashed in the history of social media.

I ended up giving in and going to sleep instead.

Now I can't remember what I was going to write! 😒

I originally posted this pic as jokey reply to @violetisdelicious.bsky.social when I realised I was wearing a similar shirt to her post and copied her pose.

When I looked at it again I really liked the pic, so I'm sharing it to a wider audience!

Still deciding whether to make it my pinned! 🤔

Song lyrics I heard today #10

Got my mojo working, but it just won't work on you
Got my mojo working, but it just won't work on you
I want to love you so bad, I don't know what to do

My band also used to do this song! 😁

Song lyrics I heard today #9

In a white room with black curtains in the station
Black roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes
Dawn light smiles on you leaving, my contentment

My band used to play this! 🙂

SLAG!

Oh no. Sorry. That wasn't directed at you!

When I suddenly sat up and shouted S.L.A.G it's because I remembered the name of this Lone Taxidermist song that I've had in my brain today.

Look. Here's the song to prove it!

Sorry for shouting in the library! 😮

Song lyrics I heard today #8

Well she's walking through the clouds
With a circus mind
That's running wild
Butterflies and zebras and moonbeams
And-a fairly tales
That's all she ever thinks about
Riding with the wind

Classic Hendrix

Song lyrics I heard today #7

My baby don't stand no cheatin', my babe
Oh, yeah, she don't stand no cheatin', my babe
Oh, yeah she don't stand no cheatin'
She don't stand none of that midnight creepin'
My babe, true little baby, my babe

A great Little Walter song!

Why do Curry's bother with a physical store when, every time I go in there for something it's never in stock and I have to order it anyway? 😠

Finishing work early and heading out to the theatre!

Dinner at, probably, Pizza Express, and then to the Lowry for An Inspector Calls.

They had a power outage this morning, and the snow is here but they say the performances are still on, so fingers crossed it's not a wasted trip! 🤞

I used to be in a Blues band in the late 80s and early 90s.

Here are 2 pics - one in practice with my favourite home-made eye t-shirt, and one at a gig with my favourite red Aria Pro II bass! 😁

Song lyrics I heard today #6

That's the sound of another door shutting in
In the face of progress, in the face of progress
They'll plant their flags in the seabed, Shackleton is rolling in his grave

Music with a message! One of my favourite Enter Shikari songs!

Song lyrics I heard today #5

Step to the rhythm made out of brown paper
Sounds that we bring are of a different nature
Rhythms get great and the rhythms they get greater
Yet another rough-a-tough four for the chaser

One of the grooviest bass lines there is!

Just heard from the hospital.

The CT head and neck scan I had before Christmas is clear and shows no signs of the blood clot I did have in my carotid artery last Christmas. Hoping I can stop taking the blood thinners soon that I've been taking all 2024!

So that's a great start to the year! 🥳

Back to work day, so it's also back to a lunchtime watching of Dr. Who.

I've watched all the classics and started NuWho a bit before Christmas.

Here's where I'm up to...

Thought I'd have a Chinese for dinner tonight before going back to my normal eating pattern tomorrow.

The chicken in plum sauce is delicious, BTW! 😛
