Ha ha ha. #cycling

Astrud Gilberto was a housewife in 1964 when saxophonist Stan Getz decided he wanted his hit “Girl From Ipanema” to be sung in English — something her husband, Joao, who sang the original track, couldn’t do. Sold 2 million copies. Born today in 1940. 💕

Hmmm. Wifey has borrowed a dog for the week. I have a suspicion this is a test run…

Admittedly it’s a bit fresh down here today but I’m not sure I’ve seen a wicket keeper wearing a bobble hat before! 🤣

Morning, comrades… it’s gonna be a beautiful day! Someone else did this quite recently but here are a few double 7” packs. #WeekendSingles

“One of the most fascinating clubs”. I quite like that.

In 1993, if you’d told me that, 33 years later, I’d be in an Eastbourne gallery watching Insides I might have raised an eyebrow. But here we are…

I’ve wanted to see Nathan Salsburg play for a long time. So it was an absolute privilege to see him do his thing before accompanying Joan Shelley in Lewes. Wonderful stuff.

Greetings from Leeds. Beer from Two by Two in Byker 🙌 #Bskybeer

The very top of the pops.

Last night in Moseley in the Fighting Cocks. Emotional day as we cleared my wife’s family home. No ties here now so we might never be back. #Bskybeer

Bill Ryder-Jones in Birmingham. In a church. Absolutely wonderful.

LTNs in King’s Heath doing a brilliant job of making this a pleasant place to hang out. Wifey reliably informs me that Broadcast used to live on this road.

Good morning from Birmingham. Well, Moseley. Here’s a few singles from some locals… #WeekendSingles

To Birmingham. Well, the Prince of Wales in Moseley Village. And a rather good Hereford Pale Ale from the Wye Valley Brewery. #Bskybeer

We said goodbye to our cat, Bella yesterday. 21 years old. She did good. Loved Steve Reich and Tortoise. We’ll miss her 💔🐈‍⬛ #caturday

Big win for Newcastle calls for a big beer #nufc #Bskybeer

Morning, #WeekendSingles peeps… 🌞 is out! A few nice Japanese issues and some classics.

Liverpool to Hastings takes bloody ages 🤦🏻‍♂️ #Bskybeer #cans

Well that was pretty great. David Byrne in Manchester last night.

Couldn’t get a ticket to see THAT D. Burn last but I have got a ticket to see THIS D. Byrne tonight.

Erm, I caved in 🤷‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Oh so quiet. Visibility: limited

Formative albums… #AlbumAlmanac #WeekendSingles

Morning, peeps! #WeekendSingles

No shit, Sherlock. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

I’m in Cardiff so it’s gotta be Brains #Bskybeer

How many times have you watched this today? youtu.be/Sg6avzSjmo8 #nufc

I hope Peter Banks’ car is knackered and he’s currently at Scotch Corner waiting for the AA. #nufc

Didn’t think Osula had it in him. But that was fantastic #nufc

9 mins of added time. Why? #nufc

Woah. Vashti is a Geordie. Who knew!? faroutmagazine.co.uk/five-forgott...

Oh fuck off www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

That is beautiful

Wifey has just described my office as looking like “a teenager’s bedroom with frames”. This is a compliment, right?

Winter miles = summer smiles, apparently. Jeez, it’s bleak out there today. (40kph wind not shown)

Enjoyed this Bill C interview. The new record arrived yesterday so I’m looking forward to digging into that later. stereogum.com/2489087/weve...

Having a Harvey’s night. Fuck knows what Tom Paine would make of Trump but here we are. #beer #Bskybeer
