I just asked the robot cleaner in Morrisons where the oat milk was. Not. A. Clue. We are safe. For now.

After an amazingly intimate gig from @arabstrap.scot in @assaiedinburgh.bsky.social Malcolm and Aidan sign their new record for me.

Manual bikes and scooters FTW. But I wonder why e-bikes aren’t mentioned. Are they already banned?
A sign states that electric scooters are not permitted on board trains or stored in train station.

When all you have to reach the stage is your phone on 5x zoom, the images can still look pants. They look a little less pants in B&W though. Still a long way off what a traditional camera with a long lens can do. #Photography #Mogwai #TheCure #Edinburgh
Two iPhone photos. One on the left is taken of Mogwai and the one on the right is taken of The Cure at the Edinburgh Summer Sessions. They are black and white as the colour was naff

My back garden looks like a scene from a Carry On film as me and a few friends have our second annual #HamRadio field day in my back garden. Welcome to Carry On Up The Coax. Coming to a band near you over the next two days.😁

I got to see Nick's Daughter play at the fringe this week. It’s rare to encounter such talent at an unticketed event that you can simply walk into from the street. A real gift. You can still see them at the #FreeFringe but they are also playing in The Borders on the 1st Sept. Check the flyer below.

Thoughts on this beer can art… Is it AI generated or do you think it’s made by an artist?

One year at @EMFcamp I might only photograph people's festival badges. #BadgesBadgesBadgesBadges
Four customised Tildagon and Spaceagon badges worn by attendees of EMF Camp. Only two of them were performing denial-of-service attacks on fascist regimes. The other two were chatting to each other over LoRa.
