Haven’t seen much mention of this. Worth it if only for 10538 Overture (which Paul Weller nicked for The Changing Man!)

Whilst REM, Big Country and The Alarm will all feature heavily in my #5debutalbums8084 this may well be my far less fashionable number one.

We’re living in an era of radical subjectivity. Truth has become much less important than what people feel to be true.
Useful reminder from Peter Kellner on the problems we refuse to acknowledge are getting better, and the politics of hopelessness that this breeds

Is there any question?

Obviously Jersey is immune to national emergencies as there’s been no sign of phone alerts.

Just been to see this at Thekla, Bristol. A joyous two hours that reminded me just how brilliant REM were.

If you want to hear something noisy then give this a listen and get yourself along to the Exchange tomorrow night (Saturday 23rd). It’ll be the last gig for a while!

@vcorenmitchell.bsky.social Err…questionable start for the new series - that wasn’t Stephenson’s Rocket in Q1. That was Locomotion No. 1 from the Stockton & Darlington Railway. Sorry to be a geek!

Errr…you can’t enter hyphens therefore this is impossible and a waste of time.

Ah damn, we’ve lost Brian Wilson. The week before my mum died I took her to see him at the Festival Hall. It was her first proper ‘gig’. She was blown away. RIP Brian.

@manmademoon.bsky.social Just seen a (v good) Bowie tribute band and we were wondering if you’d ever sanction a similar thing to ABBA Voyage for your father?

Is there a more annoying advertising ‘couple’ than the All-Clear travel insurance pair? Make me want to throw something through the TV screen.

Happy Mothers’ Day to the two best mums I know.

Unbelievably, this top bloke would have been 100 today. Happy birthday, old man!

I thought I’d use the new Boots blister pack recycling facility as it’s nearer than Superdrug. However, you have to photograph each pack, upload it and wait for it to be approved. I have loads! I think I’ll stick to Superdrug.

@moviessilently.bsky.social Have you ever done anything on a 1924 crime movie The Notorious Mrs Carrick? According to our local radio station, it was showing in our town 100 years ago this week. I thought I’d try and find out a bit more about it. Thanks for all you do to keep silents alive.

You know you’re retired and getting old when you get ridiculously excited about a new series of Father Brown.

In a strong year, I reckon these could be my top 4.
