Friday night… what are you coding? 🤔😁

An Amiga A1200 on a desk with some Amos code on the monitor behind it. Akira posters are on the surrounding wall.

Ah yes, the 42nd time... again. 😅

I forgot how clever the writing style is. Despite reading it countless times, I still find myself smiling reading it now. Brilliant stuff. 😎

Actually they look okay. 😎

For me it’s like the cover to a book, as you say, it frames the ‘episode’. Would you be comfortable reading a book with no cover?🤔🙂

Yawning Angel @yawning-angel.bsky.social · 3d

Is that running on the bargain Toastrack? 😁

Work begins on my next AMOS video. A couple of teaser screenshots for you... 😁

#amiga #amos

Some computer sprites on a screen, two spaceships and an asteroid.

I share Dan’s sentiments - your videos are entertaining no matter what you do. I could never do even a small percentage of what you achieve in any of your videos, but this latest shows we are all human, and that makes a channel more appealing IMHO.

Feet up for this week’s @bloggospow.bsky.social 😁

Crossed feet on a table with a tv in the background.

Such a great film. 👍
The universe will continue to weep until they make Dredd 2 with Mr Urban back in the role. 🤔

That’s this evening’s entertainment/mental scarring sorted then. 😅👍

An assortment of tunes on the deck this evening, easing into the weekend.

#skyclad #portishead #vinyl #lp

Portishead’s debut LP. An absolute epic release.

3 reps of 10 rows that is. 😅

Yawning Angel @yawning-angel.bsky.social · 5d

… it’s helped immensely as the pain has gone and I have full movement back in both shoulders. Took some time but am okay now.
I do 3 reps each arm every other day.

So I had ‘frozen shoulder’ last year, and as a result had a steroid injection and saw a physio.
It got better but started to come back, and then the other shoulder started displaying the same symptoms.
I keep them both in check now by using exercise and weights - doing single arm dumbbell row…

My amazing wife Lucie is raising money for the #BowelBabe Fund for @cancerresearchuk.org

We've lost 2 close friends to #BowelCancer, 2 too many!

If you are able to sponsor her, amazing, or just a 'share' would be massively appreciated. THANK YOU!

He’s have needed to have had a hard life looking like that at 36. 🤔

Is that one of your ancestors, spending a life of touring around stages with his show of “Forsooth sir, is this is rather fine.” in which he comments on cuisine of the day while standing between two ‘seen better days’ human skulls? 🤔🤣

Thank you. 😎
