Today on Radio Thurlbeck we’re listening to Billie Eilish’s HIT ME HARD AND SOFT, specifically The Greatest.

“All my love and patience…”

Thurlbeck Radio would like to apologise. What we thought was Oh Mickey, is somehow Oh Piggy and you’ve been listening to:

“Oh Piggy quiet Piggy, quiet Piggy,
Don’t start a riot Piggy”

and I’m sure you can guess what was “…taken by he hand.”

Our engineers are looking into it.

Good morning, and welcome to Radio Thurlbeck.

Today we are playing Golden Hours from the Brian Eno album Another Green World - and don’t you sometimes wish there was another green world to disappear to?

“Perhaps my brains are old and scrambled…”

What a beautiful day. What a beautiful day, @mrjamesob.bsky.social to stage a coup in Moscow, call back any planes in Alaska and send a text to Donald saying, “Hey, we know how much you love Putin and we think you should keep him for your very own. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

@mrjamesob.bsky.social love you James but partway through your Putin-Trump dialogue, I lost LBC on my tv, replaced by Heart. Now I don’t want to worry you, and of course it may be purely coincidental, but now that you’re talking about brickies you’ve come back. Be careful…

@mrjamesob.bsky.social There’s a scene in Fight Club where a character, asked why he had done so much damage to his opponent, replied “I wanted to destroy something beautiful.”

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Morning, James. Good luck to Kidderminster Harriers tomorrow!

Truro City are pushing to be champions in the South, so here’s to you turning up in Cornwall next season.

All this talk of the Premier League being the best in the world when it’s not even the best in England..!

@mrjamesob.bsky.social I agree with Kemi Badenoch, we should use our Brexit freedoms in response to the madness of the Fanta Fascist - especially our new freedom to move closer to the EU

Rejoin - it just makes sense

The time has come, @mrjamesob.bsky.social said,

To speak of many things.

The idiocy of Brexit,

The delicacy of Mings.

And a nation stands and applauds @mrjamesob.bsky.social !

This is what we want to hear from our politicians!

@mrjamesob.bsky.social James, I’ve been saying this for years: this is now year 10 in the age of stupid

@drewwagar.bsky.social I’m sure you’re aware of this but it seems your works have been harvested as well. Check it out below

The Tories know the price of everything, but the value of nothing, James. It’s why libraries are the first thing to go whenever they’re in power.

Welcome to Bluesky!

Half one in the morning and I’m out posting a letter in our little village. The last collection is 9 am.

I meet a man.

“Morning,” I say.

“All right?” he replies, eventually.

We pass each other.

And a million comedians will have to come up with better ‘jokes’ than “He’s so old that…”

I’d have been happier if the BBC had boycotted Farage but I can’t complain…

Because ‘water is precious,’ South West Water are offering me a free Leakbot if I apply before the 11th March 2024.

This came in a letter posted 2nd class on the 11th March 2024, which arrived today.
