@petepaphides.bsky.social Hi Pete, have you heard The Hymn of the North by Pulp and Chilly Gonzales? It’s really lovely

I was in the Scratch City Crew. 4 matching Nike hoodies from Burtons in town. Lots of practice in parents’ front rooms. Never went public. But we had our dreams.

@singingadams.bsky.social Hi Steven. Driving earlier, Sea of Words took my breath away on the shuffle play. Beautiful. But I wondered - who is she? Is it someone we all should know? I’ve no podcast or fanzine or anything, just a query from a listener driving (now parked).

@clarewadd.bsky.social @uncharteredstreets.bsky.social I drove along Upper Belgrave Rd in the sunshine just 30 minutes ago. Frans Hals on the car stereo. Fairground on the downs. That vista across the city glimpsed between the houses. Lots of funny feelings.

I wrote down mushroom so I was in the ballpark. But no. Great to see you honoured your word. Enjoy the fresh surroundings

I saw him this morning too! My wife spotted the ‘development’ this evening. She’s now suggesting I get a life and stop messaging you about it all. She may have a point.
