In Ashford to see Hayseed Dixie. The venue is an old church! Ghost or Dogma should play here!

Why are the menu screens on smart TVs anything but smart?

I reckon we should just set the PS2 as the base level of technology and start over.

This week I’m on course to finish a book — scrappy first draft, but a book nonetheless.

The Ninja is in for an MOT at Mr Appleby’s motorcycle emporium. So I’m sitting by the canal with a book, learning stuff.

Restring and set up on these two.

I miss the old days when I’d go to a physical shop to buy strings. Maybe pickup some picks or other bits.

Miss gear chats that resulted in trying something new because a real person recommended it. That’s how I swapped to thicker picks, thanks to a shop rando.

It's been a long week and the weekend is like:
a person in a ghost costume is holding a bouquet of flowers and standing in front of a door .

What is going on with eBay? 3 weeks ago I listed a guitar effects unit... Postage options make no sense. Buyer protection bumps up the price and it all just feels clunky.

On the buying side - I looked at a few guitars. All overpriced.

It used to be easy. Guess it's time to try Reverb.

It's weird. I've currently got 4 writing projects active. A year ago I could only work on one (barely!).

I have no idea what changed.

First astropic in a while. Western Veil Nebula, shot over 3 nights in June and July. Seven hours in total.

Forgot I took a snappy snap! Iron Maiden’s 50th anniversary tour at the London Stadium. Halestorm were special guests…. What a gig.

I racked my mead a week ago. It's even clearer now. Waiting for a spoon of extended length to arrive so I can sweeten it a bit. So far it's gone well. Second batch is underway.

New drinking game. Take shot every time an F1 driver says: “It’s not for me to say”

Can we have remakes of movies, but as episodes of Scooby Doo? That would help a lot in these turbulent times.

I'm kind of liking the idea of a chase sequence in Alien.

Or the Shining whith Shaggy as Jack?

Well if the FIA’s plan was to make Monaco even more boring than normal… They’ve succeeded. I’m off to cut the grass.

Luckily they didn’t pretend to throw the ball, but not throw the ball.

This weekend I'm going to start my first every batch of Mead! It could be epic, it could be a disaster... Let's find out.

Homebrewers feel free to share your wisdom.

In the news today: Eating processed food is causing premature deaths.

Ah that's what it is. I'd hate to think it was spending fifty years working long hours for poverty wages.

Wait... Could both those thing be related?

TV Pitch: Pope Factor. Like the X-Factor, but with Cardinals.

I went to see Ghost at the O2 Arena... It was a camera free show, so here a picture of a named ghoul and a ghost video poster.

Out my five books, three were used by Meta to train their AI.

The three books they used have one thing in common. They all had free book promotions when I was using Kindle Select.

Lesson, never offer your books for free or you'll likely lose it.
