Busty, raven-haired millionairess. Not the MP. I like theatre, Stockport County, and science fiction. Based in Manchester. I marry people for money.
A selection of some of my favourite facial expressions from the @boothbygraffoe.bsky.social gig at Old Woollen last night.

Antonio Forcione is a very talented guitarist but his signature really is something else.

I’m here! So excited for this. @boothbygraffoe.bsky.social

Today’s the day! Heading over to Leeds this morning, buggering about for a few hours, before descending on Farsley for this rare treat. Can’t wait.

Blimey, less than a week until I’m in the presence of greatness once again.

What’s the movie you put on when you’re ill, or sad, or anxious, or stressed out?

Mine is the #BobsBurgers movie. I don’t like sweeping statements but that,to me, is a perfect film.

It’s the only thing that gets me through having to go on a plane.

I’d like to introduce you to my cat Detective Rosa Diaz (Rosie for short). You wouldn’t think from this picture that she has a care in the world but in the six months she’s lived with us she’s shown nothing but derision for me personally.

I’m a big fan of the Newell’s Old Boys club crest.

Can’t tell you how happy I am that I can finally listen to this absolutely incredible album while on the move. Nice to no longer have to play it via beatbox on my shoulder in the ‘hood.

If anyone is after a standing ticket for #Babymetal at the O2 in London in May, I’ve just listed one for sale on the AXS site.

PSA for those travelling on busy trams and trains: Take your fucking rucksack off, you arsehole.

Unexpectedly very much enjoyed the first episode of “Extraordinary Attorney Woo” on Netflix. Not sure it’d ever see the light of day over here but it’s really good. Only watchable in the original Korean with subs though - the dubbing in the trailer looked pretty shit.

Finally binned off the hellsite. Now a permanent, regular member of this place.

My current obsession is #Severance. This will be the case for a long time. Looking for random conversation with fellow obsessives.

Does anyone know why I don’t seem to be able to watch the #SNL50 episode from this week in the UK? The rest have all been on Sky Comedy, but no sign of this one. Rights issues or something?

I’m nowhere near Farsley in Leeds but I’m still going to this. You should, too.

I don’t think I’ve ever raced through a rewatch-binge-watch as quickly as I’m getting through The Good Place. If anything, it’s funnier second time around.

Raced through all of Star Trek: The Next Generation, and then powered through all the films. Now moved straight onto Picard, which I haven’t seen yet. Crikey it’s jarring seeing someone age twenty years in the blink of an eye.

Yeah, #AManOnTheInside is one of my favourite shows this year. Michael Schur knows how to make comedy with heart that’s never mean-spirited, and I love that. Such a great cast too.

Cheers.

Finally finished a first ever complete binge of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Only ever saw it in bits before. Can’t believe S7 had an episode as poor as ‘Sub Rosa’ immediately followed up by an episode as superb as ‘Lower Decks’. Mad series.
