That’s lovely. Was your father a musician? Well obviously. What was his name?
Is there another? 🙂
Oops- it’s WORLD BOOK DAY and I haven’t even mentioned my autobiography #TheClosestThingToCrazy . It must be my modest disposition. 😬
Atchly- not me, guv. I did "All Around My Hat" and their following album, Rocket Cottage. 🙂

My tribute to President Zelensky and all Ukrainians. 🙏
No namby-pamby probation officers in it, then, Jonathan?
A lucky moment...
You can’t fool me- that toilet is actually made of cake, - and very clever it is, too! (Jane Asher, perchance?)
STOP PRESS
The depictions of Wellington and Tobermory lead me to think that this is “new regime” merchandise rather than vintage. Is that right, Frederick?
Album cover for the CD release of Mike Batt's The Hunting of the Snark.
Well, you learn something new every day - today it's that @mikebatt.bsky.social wrote the song used as the theme tune for BBC's Big Break. Performed by Captain Sensible, The Snooker Song appeared on The Hunting of the Snark, which I've just acquired and am listening to for the first time!
Even on the Avalon (one of the prestigious Glasto stages) at GLASTONBURY 2011 we still lost £17k doing our 1 hour fully live set, after rehearsals, costumes, etc, though we pulled double the capacity, biggest crowd for our Sunday pm time, including the Pyramid stage, according to Glasto management
Why, was there something wrong with it the first time?
Ain’tcha got Google? 😂 (Yes👍)
I got up yesterday morning to find flowers and an envelope saying "Happy 41st". I thought "41st what?". I'd forgotten our wedding anniversary but Jules hadn't. She'd crept outta bed and slipped downstairs. Here we are last night at Cent Anni, our fave Italian restaurant in Wimbledon! Durrh. 🫢 ❤️
I remember that!
Just a pal of mine. 😉
That’s very kind of you, Doctor! 🙏🥳
A little prezzy for all my Blue Sky pals; a new song snippet. Sweet dreams and Happy New Year! M🙂❤️
Thanks- but them’s the rules. If you only get to number 2, you don’t make some lists. Having said that, Wizzard only made number 2 the year before we had our Wombles #2. So scratch that! 🎅🏻
Interesting. I thought for one horrible moment it was a new thing! 😬
Well, if you MUST know, I do have a book out.
When it’s time to paint the stair knob-thing…
🙂
I hear they are letting Indian folks from Ireland into the States now. At least, they said "Cork Asian" so I guess they meant that.
Reading all these posts from vile people rejoicing in the murders of Rob and Michele Reiner, and it really reminds you how evil the Trump cult is. There's Hell on Earth. Made me think of this old song of mine. "DON'T TRUST THE ANGELS"

Would everybody please buy my fucking book?
Afternoon all! I'm looking for images for my UKRAINE SYMPHONY album cover. Please spread the word to arty friends, and possibly forward my substack BATTSTACK piece! open.substack.com/pub/mikebatt...
