On #BankHolidayMonday I thought that a seaside image might be appropriate so I've chosen "Lyme Regis" by John Cooper that dates from 1934. As a child, Lyme was a daytrip destination for me & my family & this view, from Cobb Road down to the harbour, marked the end of our journey. #JohnCooper

Apparently, all the British government had to do to stop this pernicious and destructive dry spell, was to schedule a cricket test match at Headingley (Leeds). Here in London it's been raining for at least two minutes, with no signs of it ever abating. Oh, it's stopped. As you were.

Alan now thinks it was June but it really doesnt matter. He has brought these works by a group of working class people in the East End back into the public view and we can celebrate them and their lives and enjoy these beautiful paintings.

A reminder that if any of you are reading ‘How to Lay an Egg with a Horse Inside’ and are thinking ‘I’d really like to see a show based on that book, in which the author reads some poems from it, while making acute observations of the human condition’, then there’s a show which does exactly that.

Under my leadership of the Labour Party, Peter Mandelson had no role, no influence and no part to play, because I do not trust the man and I do not believe the man.

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... Those of us on the Left need to up the ante. People need to known that the Right want to destroy the NHS, leaving the ECHR will leave THEM with no rights, and being effectively a pariah state will mean government sanctioned thugs on the streets.

Israel bombed a hospital. Rescue workers and reporters rushed to recover the dead and the wounded. Israel bombed the hospital again. Live on TV. Read that again. Our government’s legacy will be its complicity in crimes against humanity. End all arms sales to Israel, now.

Love love love the fact that while I am rereading Gone With The Wind, for the first time in nearly 50 years my friend @sevenpitches.bsky.social is walking the streets of Atlanta and sending me pictures of places in the book. Her Hometown.

The very low tide on the Thames returned her this morning near to us on the Isle of Dogs I knew about this early today but was reluctant to post until confirmed. I hope her family find the peace they need and know that the residents of the Isle of Dogs will hold her memory in our hearts

Finally sorted out my Bruce life as I wasn't sure I could make any gigs this year to celebrate 50 years since seeing him at Hammersmith. But yes thanks to a Bruce bud, I am going to be FOS at Anfield 7th June. That will do for me. #Marysdresssways

Love this as I often travel up and down the Mile End Road. Also in the picture Sunday Morning Farringdon Road is the painting underneath. Both great paintings.

I was lucky enough to see Clem Burke play twice. Firstly, in a small club in Bond St, when he was drumming for Michael Des Barres, and then a few years later for Blondie at Glasto. He was a huge presence on stage and never gave less than his all. Will be sadly missed.
