In a Patrick Batemanesque move I just listened unironically to the Genesis Invisible Touch album whilst washing the dishes. I really really (really) liked it. Has there been a reappraisal yet of Phil Collins as one of the greatest UK pop talents? If not it needs to happen.

First opportunity this year to get out on my bicycle for any length of time today. Such a feeling of freedom.

After 6 months of house refurbishment works my vinyl (amongst other less important things) have come out of storage. What a fool I’ve been.

Fun fact that lying UK journalistic hacks won’t tell you because they hate Labour: Boris Johnson did not pass vetting when Theresa May appointed him Foreign Secretary. #UKPolitics

www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis... Highly recommend this contemporary show about the building of the Victoria line tube in London.

How They Dug the Victoria Line
First transmitted in 1969, this is the story of the construction of the world’s most advanced underground system where automated trains are driven along hand-finished tunnels.

I wrote this poem the day after Renee Good was murdered - it’s about how the media and politicians immediately dehumanised her. I have had a few people ask “who wrote it?” So I am putting it up again - written in anger
Media Notes for Justification of the Orphan Makers Do not be quick to put the boot in Those accused of shooting
A peaceful mother in the face (three times)
Her demise may well be justified
Our population now is radicalised have you noticed how women often fail To even obey the voices of the male?)
And this was no run of the mill "mum"
She was a deviant one
A lesbian
And we cannot dismiss
How the sapphic can put men with pistols
Into a panic
She may not have committed the sin of being brown
But her profile page declared a pronoun!
A typical trait
of an enemy of the state
But wait
A little more
She called herself a "poet" too
And women like that are often shrews To take language and create a rhythm Another clue to domestic terrorism
So I say again
From autocue to you
The world is surely a better place
If we shoot love and peace and protest in the face

Bought an old house and currently refurbing. Going through the various historical strata - guessing we are currently in the 1950/60’s kitsch epoch.

It’s a new year and all is forgiven; this means we can be Bluesky buddies! Except if you are a nazi, sexist, transphobe, homophobe, religious zealot or otherwise generally an arsehole* in which case you can just stroll on. *noting that we can all be arseholes sometimes.

We’ve broken up our journey back to London with an overnight stay in the Dales. When you arrive in the dark it’s always interesting to see what the view is in the morning. A mix of solar cells, car park, sheep grazing and (I think) the town of Burley in Wharfedale across the valley. All very good
A view from a guest room on the first floor of The Penny Bun in Askwith. In the foreground is a lower roof with solar cells on it. Beyond that is a sparsely occupied gravel car park. The car park is surrounded by grassland on which some sheep are grazing. There is a line of trees running left to right across the image in the middle distance. The town of Burley in Wharfedale is visible in the distance as the ground rises to hills on the horizon.

The tradition continues; 2 boxes of Birds strawberry trifle mix in a big 1970’s Pyrex bowl. Merry Christmas everyone, if you celebrate.

Being ‘home’ offers the opportunity see beautiful places like Balmedie beach.The sun just sneaking through the clouds on a crisp day you can make out a line of offshore supply vessels leaving Aberdeen to the South. As an aside, there is a Trump golf course along the coast and he hates the wind farm.
