Thank you Seb-san of Viagra Boys for taking the time to chat/take pics xx

What a night - what an absolute banger of a night. Viagra Boys' set tonight in Tokyo was one for the ages.

Viagra Boys 🔥 Made it to the venue in good time, not long to go until doors opening. So ready to finally see the first show of the year tonight. Genuinely haven't been this excited for a show in a while. It'll be such a great one.

Rest in peace to the great guitarist. Saw Black Midi in Tokyo when they were first up and coming and they blew my socks off.

First run of 2026 🏃🏻‍♀️

🎄🎄🎄

Looking forward to watching the Hakone Ekiden on TV. Every year on 2-3 Jan., even people who normally don't care about running watch the Hakone Ekiden race on TV. The level of attention may be comparable to the Super Bowl or the Champions League final.

A delightful start to a sunny Tokyo morning with a plate. Perfect for fueling the day ahead.

😍😋🍴

Customer at a cafe here got up and went somewhere, about 10 minutes ago… leaving her equipment, bag, laptop pc and drink behind. Knowing it will be safe. Japan is amazing!

God Save the Florrie The T-shirt reminds me of Janice Long. She loved @theflorrie.bsky.social, music and musicians so much. Thanks to @swatkiss.bsky.social @ellibin.bsky.social for this cool present. And congratulations. Happy wedding anniversary, you two xx

Oshiruko 🥢

It's the most wonderful time of the year. Kaki-furai are back on the menu. Love the fried oysters in Japan 🦪🦪

Enjoy the rest of your time in Japan 🇯🇵 and hope to see you two again soon xx @swatkiss.bsky.social @ellibin.bsky.social

Look what got hand-delivered by @swatkiss.bsky.social @ellibin.bsky.social. What a lovely surprise! Found out that my name is also credited on the CD. Thank you so much Paul and Mrs LK @lippykidmusic.bsky.social Cue Dot Records. Received your message to say hello to me ;) xx

M&S Welsh cakes from Sal & Jeff for the first time. So delicious. I just can't stop eating them.

Tweetup with @swatkiss.bsky.social @ellibin.bsky.social. Finally got to meet two of my fave 6 Music Family today. What a wonderful little MAH @maryannehobbs.bsky.social community we have.

Mame Daifuku 🍡🍡🍡

Just watched CHILD 44. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It was not just a crime thriller. Well-acted but… Why did Tom Hardy have to act with a Russian accent?

It was great to see @ash-1977.bsky.social live after a few years. Nice mix of new, old and fav songs. @burnedaswitches.bsky.social

Fretless bass maestro, Motohiko Hamase 👏👏👏

Jon Spencer with Kendall Wind & Macky Spider Bowman were effortlessly cool tonight. He never disappoint!! The venue was sold out and jam packed. I didn't take much videos/pics at the show. I was trying to enjoy the moment a bit more :)

A new Balenciaga era has arrived. So elegant!! 🖤🤍🖤 No need for a big logo.

Found my lost wallet at my local superstore. What a huge relief!!

Oh, found myself.

Surrender, one of my absolute faves by Cheap Trick.

Cheap Trick at Budokan. 🏁 An absolutely fantastic night of throwback to the 80s/90s! What a way to say goodbye… Thank You for a lifetime of memories.

Cheap Trick at Budokan. The stage for their last show in Japan. Could. Not. Be. More. Excited for the farewell show.

Washington D.C.'s faraquet in Tokyo tonight. Waited a long time. Was well worth the wait. Great crowd and incredible sound. It really doesn’t matter, but I don’t like the term “math rock” that much. There were a lot of intelligence behind their live performance. What a band they were anyway.

Tastes better than the real sweet melon 🍈🍦

Tried to write about surgery... the whole thing had a weird feeling, almost semi-ecstatic (the process, not the build up or ongoing recovery). This pre-operation picture - no shame, not a care in the world even - sums that up. The post is here: acloudablossom.substack.com/p/into-the-v...

A day late birthday cake 🎂🎉

Finally found you 🥃

🧊🍧🍵💚

Cool off and treat myself on a hot summer day like today.

Listening to this album. Dusted off today after too long. Oh my! It's still amazing.

Made onigiri 🍙🫛🟢

My new barefoot shoes 👣🏃🏻‍♀️

Absolutely unbelievable… Thank you Ozzy. You changed the history of music forever.

They take me back to the late 90s.

A summer dessert 🧊🧊🧊

It's so hot & muggy over here today as well ☀️💦

The Osbourne family

OZZY FOREVER

Unpopular opinion. I'm not interested in the Oasis reunion. At all. Because I was a Blur girlie.

Haneda airport this afternoon. Zunda (crushed edamame beans) shake for the first time.

🍕🍻

I saw toddle as the support act for +/- (Plus/Minus). I didn't like the Japanese band that much, but using "Neutral Milk Hotel - King of Carrot Flowers Pts. 2 & 3" as their entrance music was pretty cool.
