thebotmakes.bsky.social @thebotmakes.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Last year I would have had no idea, but now I can confirm yes it’s a real word and there’s a whole rich heritage of it with individual fishing villages having their own patterns (my wife has been involved in a fishwife heritage project and she even has a ‘gansey woman’ in her crew 🤣) 150

thebotmakes.bsky.social @thebotmakes.bsky.social · 18/08/2026This. Didn’t even have a cd player yet, but it was in one of those cool long boxes and I couldn’t resist. Bought from a record fair stall in the caird hall in Dundee. 000
thebotmakes.bsky.social @thebotmakes.bsky.social · 17/08/2026For a while a few years ago it was looking like we would have had this pair in defence at Aberdeen but it didn’t end up happening - Will Fish & Liam Scales 000

thebotmakes.bsky.social @thebotmakes.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Been to the modern art galleries in Edinburgh and had coffee beside one of my favourite artworks - Vulcan by Eduardo Paolozzi (coffee for scale as no bananas to hand). I love that he’s a maker and the ridiculous scale - while we were there the amount of people that stopped and looked up - magic ❤️ 151
thebotmakes.bsky.social @thebotmakes.bsky.social · 04/08/2026one of the most stunning of these sites I’ve ever visited - Barclodiad y Gawres on Anglesey. A fantastic chambered tomb in a beautiful spot beside the sea #TombTuesday 0204

thebotmakes.bsky.social @thebotmakes.bsky.social · 21/07/2026This is Trefignath burial site on #Anglesey, my photos from last week. An excellent day was had searching out these places dotted all over the island, love Anglesey. #TombTuesday 061

thebotmakes.bsky.social @thebotmakes.bsky.social · 19/03/2026Now playing 👇 bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlay... With this as my view. World might be a bit crazy at the moment but cha cha Kraftwerk covers and a beach do a lot of good ❤️ 150
thebotmakes.bsky.social @thebotmakes.bsky.social · 15/02/2026Great compilation! (Can’t remember if that was the one that came with a free condom but it was definitely one of the plus 8 ones 🤣) 130

thebotmakes.bsky.social @thebotmakes.bsky.social · 05/10/2025The Gogar Stone in Edinburgh. Not the biggest stone but close enough to my work to make it a lunchtime megalith, and i was grinning like an idiot on the way back to work at the thought of that 😀 #StandingStoneSunday @stoneclub.bsky.social @megalithic.bsky.social 3397

thebotmakes.bsky.social @thebotmakes.bsky.social · 10/06/2025Just finished this, bought it when it first came out then for reasons best known to myself never got round to starting it. Now I’m annoyed at myself because it’s brilliant and I could have read it a few times by now 😂. By the excellent @reversediorama.bsky.social Highly, highly recommended ❤️ 1141
