My Spotify top songs for 2025 - skewed as usual by what I've been learning to play on guitar. 🎸
My listening age is 78 and I'm into Hard Rock/Indie Folk/Folk Rock/Power Pop/Oldies 😄
Pleased to see "Plastic Jesus" at No1.

One @Amathusdbc #Dragonboat 🐲 out training on a relatively calm, dry, full moon, December night.
Long pieces at a steady measured pace working on the technique and power of our stroke.
We turned in the Albert Dock which is festooned with Christmas 🎄 lights & projections.

RIP Guitar Legend Steve Cropper 😥🎸
The chap who "followed the dots down" to create "Midnight Hour", then later reversed it and "followed the dots up" to create "Knock On Wood"

Bright winter sunlight on a Sunday morning for @Amathusdbc #Dragonboat 🐲 training.
I did an early O1 session first. 7 x one person boats doing technical work. Must remember to keep my inboard arm up 🙂
2 full boats out on the main session, doing some long pieces on spring stroke

Warmer than previous nights and dry, with a moderate breeze, for tonight's @Amathusdbc #Dragonboat 🐲 training.
We filled a single boat and worked at a steady, no rush rate on the rotational element of our stroke.

Woolly hats on tonight for @Amathusdbc #Dragonboat 🐲 training 🥶
A very cold, dry night with a very light breeze.
Two boats out in the dark, working on putting all the elements of our stroke into action. The Christmas 🎄 🎅 lights around Salthouse Dock gave the best visibility.

Early O1 session for me today - getting better at the one person boat, then the main @Amathusdbc #Dragonboat 🐲 training session.
I was ready to helm, but it was a perfect day for helm practice, so another helmed most of the session (great work) & I just did the final piece. 🙂

TikTok throws all sorts of coordinated dance meme stuff at me, but these guys are good - and also on YouTube (which is easier to share)

David Coverdale has announced his retirement, so it's "Fare Thee Well" to Whitesnake
Recalling a moment I'll never forget - Donington "Monsters of Rock" festival '81 and Whitesnake performing "Mistreated" as the sun went down. ❤️

Mild, calm night for @Amathusdbc #Dragonboat 🐲 training
Calm, until a speedboat, breaking the speed limit, made a big, rolling wash of waves 😲 🌊
Our crew braced the boat with our paddles & kept us safe.
This was followed by a good, stroke improving session, lit by Xmas lights

Riding lesson today for Daniel at Beechley Stables RDA
Fizz is wearing a Poppy as it's Remembrance Sunday.
I think Daniel's Great Granda' - who looked after horses that pulled the big guns in The Somme - would have been proud of this young rider 🙂
