A Christmas Album by @brighteyesband.bsky.social. Maybe the best Christmas album. Although that could equally be Low or Bob Dylan. Better listen to them all I guess. #Music #Vinyl #MusicSky

It’s wreath-making weekend at Gingerman Towers…at least for one of us! Me? I’m curled up with coffee and a now traditional pre-Christmas book of ghost stories, just what the doctor ordered… #Reading #BookSky

On the wildest of nights I went to see Butler, Blake & Grant in Belfast last night and it was just the kind of soul food this week needed. Wonderful gig… #Music #LiveMusic #MusicSky

Getting some new record storage built so I can get some of this stuff off the floor! Much too late in the day I’ve started cataloging my collection…what a joy to stumble across stuff I’d forgotten about. Damn this is satisfying! Organising Chaos! #Vinyl #Collection #MusicSky

Tonight’s sunset view from the terrace. The silhouettes of hot air balloons gently rising on the other side of town. Strangely captivating…
