Saw a few posts on here and Pinterest where people had made these over-the-door Halloween black cat decorations and decided I had to have a go. Pretty pleased with how it turned out, even if I can’t get it to hang straight.
A giant retro Halloween illustration style black cat’s head, with big white fangs and green and yellow eyes made out of cardboard and painted, hangs out over the doorway to a room lit in pink and blue, with lots of other Halloween decorations in it.Second verse, same as the first (slightly different angle).

Finished one of this year’s Halloween creations - I call it Stack O’Jack. Inspired by blow-mould stacks of pumpkins/jack o’lanterns, and based on some of my favourite vintage Halloween illustrations.
Cardboard…sculpture? of five vintage-style jack o’lanterns, increasing in size, in the form of a wobbly-looking stack.

I think the one George Shearing LP I have is the most ‘oh, the ‘60s’ album cover in my collection.

Still working out exactly where everything’s going, but all of the LPs and 10/12” singles are out on the shelves, nobody has to live in a box, so I’m calling it a successful trip to IKEA. #musicsky #vinyl #nowspinning
Records, sweet records: one 2x2 black IKEA Kallax to the left, and a 1x2 to the right, on top of a vintage teak record cabinet, a HiFi on top of the 1x2, and wooden crates of 7” singles to its right. Colourful framed posters and photos of jazz greats line the wall, and the LP currently playing (The Ramones S/T) is displayed on one of the shelves  underneath the HiFi.

I was annoyed that the internet kept going off, which makes my stupid smart TV feel a lot less clever (probably good for it, the arrogant bastard), but it did lead to me listening to this album again. #musicsky #nowplaying #vinyl #nowspinning

If this isn’t how you accidentally turn your bathroom into a honky-tonk, then I don’t know what is. Also, I hashtagged this ‘splishsplash’ on Instagram, which made me think you could do a really great country cover of Splish Splash, and you know what, I bet somebody has.

Yves understands baths. #booksky
Extract from Another Country by James Baldwin, photographed from a page of the book. 

Text reads:

‘…him. Yves did not like showers, he preferred long, scalding baths, with newspapers, cigarettes, and whisky on a chair next to the bathtub, and with Eric nearby to talk to, to shampoo his hair, and to scrub his back. The thought of the Oriental opulence which overtook Yves each time he bathed caused Eric to smile. He smiled, but he was troubled, too. And as he put on his bathrobe, his body tingled less from the effect of the towel and the toilet water than from the image, abruptly overwhelming, of Yves, leaning back in the bathtub, whistling, the washrag in his hand, a peaceful, abstracted look on…’

Pets and their owners, right?
Double selfie of Smokey and me - Smokey has flowing grey and silver hair, slightly tufted ears, and bright green eyes which look like he’s been at the kohl pencil. I have sorta-flowing (needs a wash) black hair, you can’t see my ears, and I have mostly-green, very eyelinered eyes, yet we look quite alike, and have an oddly similar chin shape.

Profile:
Recording and mastering studio in Englewood, New Jersey, USA, located in an abandoned city hall rented by Gloria Toote in 1966. She turned the building into a state-of-the-art recording studio, one of the largest in the New York metropolitan area. The 8-track studio was 2400 square feet. In March 1968 a Scully disc mastering system was installed. In June 1970 the studio was destroyed by a fire.

Staff engineer: Orville O’Brien

At the time Town Sound was the only independent black-operated studio in the country that recorded major white artists. Artists who recorded here included The Animals, The Mothers Of Invention, Miriam Makeba, Dizzy Gillespie, Gloria Lynne, The Isley Brothers and Lloyd Price.
