I've managed to behave myself in keeping the Enterprise-D set back for my festive leave, but I caved in with the Shuttlepod last night!

Awake until gone midnight to order the Lego U.S.S. Enterprise 1701-D. The usual 1-hour, or so, to actually fall sleep. Then the alarm got me up at 5:00am so I could get the first train into Cardiff for @recordstoredayuk.bsky.social Black Friday at @spillersrecords.bsky.social.
Totally worth it!

I've given in. I was hoping to last out a couple of weeks longer, but the central heating has gone on and the heavier duvet is going onto the bed.
On the plus side, 3 hours of free electricity a little later today with @octopus.energy, so I'll get a couple of loads of laundry done in that time.

The gloom has been braved and my civic duty done. Got a bad feeling, but all I can do now is keep my fingers crossed.

Some people have a picture of their loved ones in their wallet, or on their work desk, to remind themselves, on tough days, just what they are doing it for.
Me? I have my receipt from the most recent Record Store Day!

Oh, @waxandbeans.bsky.social, when you teased us yesterday (on that other place) with a "Beautiful One", I hoped, but I dared not believe!

Just back from seeing Alanis Morissette is Cardiff. Fantastic evening. Epic gig from Alanis with three great support acts.
The opener, Megan Wyn, was fabulous. Can't see evidence of an album from her, yet. Would love to see her get the @dinkededition.bsky.social Early Doors treatment.

I am too old, too fat, far too unfit, and potentially a little too beardy, to be mowing lawns (jungles) in this heat!

I've been a fan of Deacon Blue for many years, and I am well aware that these are not the lyrics to Fergus Sings the Blues, but recently my brain misheard the lyric as "Can fat white men sing the blues?", and now I can't unhear it whenever I'm listening to the song!

Just said "vinyls" in an interview.
In my defence, I'm tired, having queued for over 16 hours, and clearly wasn't thinking straight. Have begged the interviewer to cut/edit that!
Oh, the shame!

That's work done for the day/week. Sun is shining, and I have a stash to pick up from @spillersrecords.bsky.social. I think a little trip into Cardiff is called for.

I've always dismissed Ghost, on the assumption that they are a band that I would likely hate.
All based solely on their album covers and song titles.
"Ah, it's just going to be a bunch of angry shouty music!"
