Some childhood books from 40+ years ago. The Great Ghost Rescue seemed written just for me. I absolutely lived in it! Later my reading got a bit lost because I hated school and English. Mrs ****face recommended The Hobbit to me but I rejected it just because. #iknow #stupid #books #puffin #piccolo

From a new collection of 4 boxes, all graded and ready to go! First-appearances, variants, including some Artgerm covers. Holocovers! Thanks to the tourists and then the new students buying up older stock, we can do a big refresh. #comics #ilikeshinycomics #venom #gothamgirl #laurakinney

Always a good sign when the comic boxes need refilling, but you've got to hoover them first. No money found yet.

My sister last night: The Beatles, Searchers, Everly Brothers, Gene Pitney, Ralph McTell, Bob Dylan. Best of all, launching her own album of funny & beautiful songs about growing up in Bolton listening to all of them. I know she always wanted to be on TOTP but she's made it as far as I'm concerned.

If we don’t signal our virtue every now and again - then so many believe they are utterly alone - “virtue signalling” is not there to say “aren’t I good” but “there are more of us than you might imagine” and “fuck you for demanding that only the brutal and the bullies may speak”

Stuck at home with another bug so I'm organising shop pics. 10-year anniversary of the comic shop in 2016. My daughter is Batgirl and a friend is Green Lantern. I'm gathering all this together for 2026.

There was an APPLE?
Terry’s of York’s famous Chocolate Orange was born in 1932. Its Chocolate Apple, launched in 1926 (which apparently didn't taste of apple), was discontinued in 1954 to allow more Oranges to be produced.

My room needs decorating badly but ignoring that - my 'new' bookcase is in! All the books here are mine, but I really thought I had more to my name. I suppose I read mostly out of the library or borrow from the shop.
