Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 04/10/2026#JustFinished The Estate - Denzil Mayrick A stand-alone novel from the author of the excellent DCI Daley series. A good story (unsurprisingly) & decent characters 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Well worth a read #BookSky 040

Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 03/10/2026#TheAnswers Best for a while 7: 3/4/5/6/12/13/14 Guessed Evita for 1, Amazon for 2, thought Golf wayyyyyy too obvious for 7 so said Archery, & thought 15 would be a women’s player I didn’t know😤 1140
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Get that kettle on, 2 sugars & we can do #thequiz together yes? 130
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 02/10/2026New Model Army The Devil’s Arse, Peak District. An event, & an unusual place for a gig to say the least. Freezing by the end of it….but didn’t put the Militia off. #newmodelarmy #nma 060
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Imagine these when you were a kid, you’d have been king of the playground. Are they still a thing with tiny people? 100
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 26/09/2026#NowSpinning Gary Crowleys Punk & New Wave compilation More money well spent at the wonderful emporium that is @noiseannoys78.bsky.social 040
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 26/09/2026#TheAnswers A mighty 2 here: 1 & 4 Not even close on most of the others, though could see the film for 8 in my head Gah!….. 1230
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 26/09/2026The only humiliation I’m expecting this weekend. It’s #TheQuiz 040
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 25/09/2026It’s like murder incorporated here at the moment, dead rodents left right & centre from the spotty killers. Good news for the red kites & buzzards who take them all from the lawn though 760
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I think we’re in for a week of nice sunsets aren’t we 010
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 20/09/2026#JustFinished William Boyd - The Predicament #2 in the Gabrielle Dax series & just as good as #1 Late to the party reading these, they’re very good - a different style of writing & great use of words to set every scene #Booksky 0100
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 19/09/2026#TheAnswers An annoying 5: 3/5/7/8/15 Said Aztec for n2😤 & this weeks “I knew that!” was n6 (said British Museum) Thought 11 was martial art top ranks 1360

Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 12/09/2026#JustFinished N11 in the OrphanX series from Gregg Hurwitz Didn’t enjoy this one as much as the others, he’s started to explore his “feelings”. It was always the death knell for tv series when they started doing that, still remember how angry I was when Starsky & Hutch did it in the 70s…. #BookSky 1100
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 12/09/2026#TheAnswers 3: 7/9/13 Said Icelandic for 5🤨 Close on 10, I said all explorers who had walked Africa Had a little shudder seeing the answer to 8, all that malarkey forgotten now 1840
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Is it Long Trousers Saturday yet then? I’d better see if my winter brain is still in the wardrobe too I suppose #TheQuiz 252
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 10/09/2026These are the sunrises that scream “winter is coming….” 1213
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 06/09/2026And after all that there’s still time for a nice sunset…… 070
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 05/09/2026#TheAnswers 4: 4/6/12/15 Could have been better, could have been worse. Guessed 15 Said The Hague for 2 (which isn’t even the capital…) & Red Sox for 7. In hindsight I knew that, just like I knew 13 after reading about tiny Fiat cars earlier this week 1450

Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 30/08/2026#JustFinished Last Orders - Denzil Meyrick N12 in the DCI Daley series. Excellent seeies, thoroughly recommend to anyone who likes a porridge-based detective. Didn’t enjoy this one anywhere near as much as the others though, good story but the switch to London just didn’t do it for me #BookSky 040
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 29/08/2026#TheAnswers 1, a stinker this week. Guessed n9 correctly Close on 10 (said own brands), otherwise cobblers 1830
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 22/08/2026#JustFinished Denzil Meyrick - No Sweet Sorrow N11 in the DCI Daley series & another great read. What a series! #BookSky 050
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 22/08/2026#TheAnswers 4: 1/2/6/12 4- a proper “I knew that!” one 8 - thought about it & then said LibDems 😤 10 - said horses owned by Queen Mum😎 14 - never knew subdivisions existed! 1340
Beechside @beechside2.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Excited? Nervous? Think it’s yours for the taking? It’s #TheQuiz 251
