Going in on the little shiny discs for a bit…

Spinning this. It’s an excellent album and just LOOK at the pretty, red, transparent vinyl…

Those are some serious exclamation marks! My youngest daughter held this up to the window in the kitchen door when she was about 4 or 5. My crime? I had shut her out of the kitchen for being a pain in the arse.

With thanks to @kanemajor.net, I've been bingeing this album for the last day and it it terrific!

Don't know how I've never heard it before, but finding new (old) music like this is Bluesky at its best.

Not exactly bedtime music, but I'm head nodding to this anyway.

Today I did wallpapering.

(Don't zoom in to find faults, zoom nonces. The paste isn't dry yet.)

This is from the book I’m reading at the moment.

Clarity & Connection by Yung Pueblo.

One of those books that I wasn’t looking for, but found me. I’m glad it did.

Books work like that sometimes.

Kids are out. Mrs Rich is tending to her many plants in her garage den.

So I have coffee and a selection of vinyl to work through.

Zeppelin first then we’ll see…

Last night Mrs Rich and I went to a gig in a big cave.

Teenage Fanclub were absolutely brilliant. The venue was completely unique.

A great Friday night.

Four quid lads! Four quid!

It's in superb condition too. What an album!

In more positive news, I'm bloody delighted with my outfit today.

Pip isn't, but whatever.

I’ve always wanted one of those Poang chairs from IKEA.

Courtesy of FB Marketplace (thankfully navigated by Mrs Rich) I now have one.

Only cost ten quid too!

Plus I got a free new friend with it.

New shoes alert!

I like them but they're at the "Are these actually going to feel good when they bed in a bit?" stage. The perils of having wide feet.

(@truckola.bsky.social made me do this BTW)

Yes it is.

I'd have thought locked doors would work better, but what do I know?

The desk relocation meant that my Denon Hi-Fi (and therefore record deck) needed a new home.

I put "music corner" together yesterday and am pretty happy with it.

As one speaker cable was too short, I've rewired them both again with better quality stuff.

Hartley the Hare was painted by my Mum BTW.

Now that my eldest daughter has her own house, operation "Reclaim the Dining Room" has commenced.

Phase one - move my office. I love my new set up and it's nice not to be in the corner of the lounge for once!

Noticed this new product in the loo in IKEA. Think it’s called “Glorïhøl” or something.

It’s a reggae on vinyl afternoon here for a change.

The perfect soundtrack to chilling with a good book.
