A lost soul, looking for a new life. Writer, percussionist, dad and worrier. Probably going to bang on about nature and stuff.
Nice to meet you.

My migraine has faded throughout the day, thank goodness, so my friend was able to come round, a welcome chat to a kind and gentle voice. I'm very lucky.

Ten years ago, inspired by the return of my childhood interest in birds, I set myself a target: see 200 British species in a year.
The result was this book.
Through 2026 I’ll be revisiting it, month by month. If you want to join me, just subscribe to my newsletter. levparikian.substack.com

Morning all. I'm feeling a bit woozy and migrainey today. Hopefully, it won't last long as I'm catching up with a friend later.

#TOTP proving that, in 1984, there was only one drum pattern permitted on a hit single. It was probably programmed anyway, but for TV it was a union regulation that a bored drummer mimed along to it, making deliberate errors.

Morning. Today is brought to you by the word 'rain'. There's a lot of it about down our way.
I hope everyone in the path of last night's UK storm were safely battened down.

I made a stew for dinner. 2/10, would not recommend. Frankly I'm a bit disappointed in myself...

I’ve given up wild swimming. So why does my Volvo smell like mince?
Should I tell the postman he has halitosis? My first wife wouldn’t let me wear shorts.
I buried my father with my bare hands. It’s time we stopped talking about glamping. 1/3

Christening my new CD player. There was only one choice for the first play, in fond memory of @wombat37.bsky.social . This was an album we both enthused over.
Farewell, Mr W.

Here we go... Look out for the full video of me as my character, Cleaveskull, coming soon. Please repost this with wild abandon, and pre-order the book. Paperback pre-orders should be along before too long.

Every year I stop myself from posting “now look here you lot, my books would make an excellent Christmas present” in October because it’s way too early, and then I forget until it’s way too late.
Hope I’ve hit the sweet spot this time.
