πŸ“£ CARDBOARD CUT. CARDBOARD CUT. πŸ“¦

Today, I have been mostly:
Clearing out the cupboard under the stairs.

A task that was brightened considerably by having this as my soundtrack! πŸŽΆπŸ‘

I am (as you saw) inclined to agree. But, don't tell YKW, or he'll sulk! πŸ˜‰πŸ˜

I love this...

It's both jolly and kinda grim at the same time.

Bit like me! πŸ˜‰πŸ˜

I would say you'll smash it...

But, I am not the kind of person that says "smash it"! πŸ™‚

And nah, I leave that sort of thing to the "professionals" like you and @daveamitri.bsky.social

Well, good golly gosh, would you look at that...

One of my favourites covering a song by one of my heroes!

Shame tho that I don't like it as much as Simon The Namedropper here, and in fact Billy himself.

Oh well, you can't win me with 'em all, Paul! πŸ™‚
