Does anyone know their European birds? Merlin tells me this is a chiff chaff, but my Irish book of birds illustration looks much more like a Willow Warbler. Marginally longer than a wren but considerably less stocky. #bird #birds

Back home for a couple of days, just climbed the highest peak in Northampton. Tank Hill, where there's a military tank buried underneath it. No really, straight up, any one in Northampton will tell you. (Admittedly it must be a very small tank) #Northampton Abington Park is still lovely though.

So the "new World of Books Irish site" that we're supposed to be excited about is just the UK site with zero information about ordering from Ireland, no option to change prices to Euro and no information about postage costs. So, obviously they don't want/need Ireland based customers. Fuck em!

29⁰ in Ireland at this time of year is not normal is it. Getting hotter tomorrow until it goes back to nearer usual temperatures from Thursday onwards. Anyhoo, sat in the back garden listening to Saint Etienne.

Not usually my thing but intrigued by this. Seems like excellent value.

This is as close as we get to Antique in our house, it's the same age as me more or less and works better than I do these days.

I have an issue 2, 3b and 4a Rubber Key ZX Spectrum. I didn't intentionally buy different revisions, I just try and buy whenever they're cheap but now I have the urge to collect all the variants........ #ZxSpectrum

I thought I had a pretty good idea on most countries flags but in all my days on this planet, this is the first time I've ever seen this flag, let alone know what country it's from. I know what it is now but if anyone wants to impress others with their flag knowledge.

Can anyone explain how the Met Eireann app can review the weather for tomorrow (nearly all rain) and give it a cloudy sunny day on the weekly outlook, make it make sense because I think they're doing it deliberately to mess with my head 🫩😅.

Got a cheap "untested" Spectrum, how dead is it, and is it fixable by a chimp with a cheap multimeter and soldering iron? #ZXSpectrum. Where do I begin?

My Tintin Stamp Collection, nice and colourful, if a bit wonky in places.

Getting on for 30 years ago. Not an endorsement of joining up, my path was 18 working terrible jobs) but I met some really great people in my less than illustrious military career. I'd forgotten all about this photo, it was under another pic I'm reclaiming the frame from. #CertaCito #RoyalSignals
