Still very much "The Man" on the evidence of last night's gig. His voice sounded as strong as ever, still scaring the band #nowplaying #rocksky #rockvinyl #vantheman

This is a wonderful idea that works really well. Simon is great at understanding what the lucky recipient will like (not a surprise given the effort he puts in and his years of bookselling). I have bought two of these as presents.

Nadine Dorries interviewed by Krishnan Guru-Murthy on Channel 4 last night at Reform Party Conference. Nigel Farage is absolutely fine and actually laughing, not even worried, definitely. Original can be viewed here, it's quite a watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Et3...

Interesting if unsurprising framing of the Reform donations story on the BBC news pages. JUKES! JUKES! JUKES! . . . oh yes Farage was there too share.google/jdkAPqbzXBBP...

Farage senior aide filmed suggesting way to avoid donations law

A film broadcast by Channel 4 shows senior Reform UK figures discussing donations with an undercover reporter.

Ridiculous situation at @cafeotodalston.bsky.social this evening. Tickets bought 4 months ago, queued for over an hour only to find 95% of available seats were already reserved. The rest had been taken by the 10 or so hardy folk who queued for longer than me.

Kelo Palacios #nowplaying #argentinianmusic #jazzsky #folksky I picked this up because Dino Saluzzi plays on some of it. It's really good, so now #musicsky I need to know what other albums sound like this, by him or others (I have Saluzzi covered). Suggestions?

An absolute triumph, on all levels. #nowplaying #jazzsky #improvsky The playing itself is magnificent, the production values - musical and physical, the lovely conversation in the notes and the photos of EP and TC together. Brilliant work from all concerned. Thank you @falsewalls.bsky.social
