I'd put it with Terminus off the No-one Cares... LP as amongst their best.

Great picture from the Chester end at Morecambe last Saturday. Chester had just equalised in the 94th minute.

Football is so much more than the Premier League.

Up The Seals in tonight's replay 🦭

*I know pyro is dangerous, illegal, stinks etc but it makes for a hell of a photo.

Looks nice that to be fair.

I preferred Tonight's The Night

Walking around the Aegean coast in Turkey in October listening to Mudhoney is just what the doctor ordered.

That and Tramadol for a frozen shoulder.

A great view of Green Beach Kusadasi from the road above.

I really like the cut of his jib. Labour are basically Tory-lite, Reform are racist grifters and the Conservatives are a busted flush.

The Greens are a movement I can really get on board with.

Didn't he get caught by Tom O'connor having "relations" with his daughter?

Mark Howell @sweetleftfoot.bsky.social · 3d

That is cool thank you. I will keep an eye out on Ebay etc.

Mark Howell @sweetleftfoot.bsky.social · 3d

Wonderful. I love Paul Simpsons solo stuff too. So rich and diverse.

Slowly working my way through the graphic novels of Alan Moore. Read From Hell and V for Vendetta earlier this year, kept this beauty for our holidays and it is so good.

Any recommendations where to go next?

Still have it. Timeless.

A bucket hat is a no-no too.

This is a brilliant record. I never normally buy live LPs, but heard a track on 6music when it came out. Its got such a lovely feel for an outside recording.

It makes for lovely late night company.

This is the kit - Live at the Minack Theatre lp sleeve.

Mighty fine it is too

It was only somebody putting about o2 priority on the SFA Facebook page that put me onto that. Delighted to have got them though, will be a great night.

Just hoping for an album announcement next... although Gruff never mentioned anything last night during his Bodedern show.

For once using Virgin broadband paid off. Got my 2 SFA tickets for Llandudno via the Priority app.

By the time my band pre-sale link came through they'd all gone.

God showed me magic I guess!

So very good. As we're support act Pys Melyn.

One of (the only) upsides in our town centres dying is the rising up of independent food and niche shops on empty market stalls.

Chester has been a little poorer since they closed the old market. The new market/foodhall is great, but the old one provided seed trays for small start ups. I miss that.

In a pub in Bodedern having my tea as come straight from work for the Gruff Rhys show tonight here.

Gruff having his tea two tables across. Its like being in the presence of a mythical being.

Holy shitballs. The greatest British band since the Stone Roses.

Fingers and toes crossed for Llandudno.

A new album to follow...?

Gruff tomorrow night in Bodedern first.

Dim probs.
