Right, let’s see what all the fuss is about

Sorry 😔

Just been passed by the Google maps van. Wish I’d been quick witted enough to pull a mooney or pretend I was being murdered or something but I didn’t, I just stared gormlessly at the camera

Ha! No way. Thanks Kevin : )

No?

Three offers of ‘opportunities’ this week. Two art. One lit. No money in any of them. Can’t afford to do it when I could be getting paid for piling junk mail through people’s doors. These are the priorities of our culture. Might delete later lol

Good job there’s nowt on

Isn’t it mad you can watch any film you want and find out the origins of whatever word pops into your head - all without getting out of bed. Think I’ll just stay here forever 👍

Booze - Etymology, Origin & Meaning "alcoholic drink," by 1570s, also bouze (in poetry rhyming with carouse), also as a verb,… See origin and meaning of booze.

Prompted to look up the etymology of ‘booze’ since it crops up several times in the lyrics. It’s quite interesting

Peggy Lee - Is That All There Is? - Live 1969 [Enhanced video] YouTube video by Peggy Lee

Noticed there was a digitally ‘enhanced’ version of this so I had to watch it. Such a great song and this is the definitive version. Do you think Peggy’s hair is real? I know it’s digitally enhanced but it looks pretty out there nevertheless

Very good 🏆

Pleased with my video of a noisy crow in the yard at work : )

Starmer's ability to find the exact sweetspot which pisses off everyone is extraordinary. He's a savant.

Oh no! You CAN have too much sea bass : (

“Here he comes with all his bills and flyers. Oh no that looks like a birthday card. It is! Thank you very much”.

“That’s grand. Thanks for that”

“Sorry, I nicked your spot, didn’t I? I was going to move up a bit but there was no point because there still wouldn’t have been room.”

You can never have too much sea bass, surely?

A Personal Anthology, by Guillermo Stitch Those familiar with the water colour Dickens’ Dream by Robert William Buss should be able to picture the scene.

Wherein, at the invitation of @jonathangibbs.bsky.social, I write about twelve brilliant stories by twelve brilliant writers, some of whom are alive @egangoonsquad.bsky.social @theactualemma.bsky.social @cdrose.bsky.social.

For the 50th anniversary of John Smith's THE GIRL CHEWING GUM, The Family Purge have installed the film in a continuous loop at the location of its shooting: 505a Kingsland Road, London E8 4AU.

Had an excruciating 3hrs there. Was signing copies of the expletive-laden art-doc book that the publisher thought might have some wider appeal. It didn’t. It was when he sat me in the Children’s section that I realised the manager had lied to me when he told me how much he’d enjoyed reading it.

It’s eight years to the day since the time I was on a bus and an elderly man grabbed me by the arm. “A friend of mine has just told me what snow is” he said. “What is it?” I asked. “Frozen rain” he explained.
