The iconic Orbis #Italia90 ring binder 🐐

Didn't know it at the time, but looking back, this 1989 Christmas present was probably the most influential present I ever received as a kid

Turned my love of football into an obsession

Just finished this excellent book on the era that I first watched football. Only let down by a few noticeable errors (referring to Darlington FC as 'The Shakers' when they're actually 'The Quakers' was one). Apart from that, excellent.

HMS Fable by Shack.

First released in 1999. Now available on vinyl for the first time. A true 10/10 lost classic. Happily, singer Mick Head is still making great records with his current outfit The Red Elastic Band.

Purchased from Reflex in Newcastle.

Pomegranate by Tess Parks.

The new album from the Canadian singer. Really enjoying this. One of my favourite records this year. Reminds me of Brian Jonestown Massacre, Slowdive, Spacemen 3 etc.
