A bright frosty morning with this lovely soundtrack.

Please tell me I’m the only person to have had their Honorary Fellowship photo shoot in the local record shop whilst walking past 😆❤️🙌🏼

Today I had the immense privilege of receiving an Honorary Fellowship from the University of Cumbria in recognition of ‘lifelong service to industry and outstanding contribution to skills development & community engagement in Cumbria’ A truly beautiful & deeply moving moment ❤️

Just finished Mike Joyce’s book, I loved it, such an easy story telling style, so relatable, funny and sentimental too. Highly recommended to everyone who loves The Smiths, Manchester, the music scene or just a bit of a tale.

We mentioned this band a few months ago when discussing Manchester in the 80s on #WeekendSingles and look, they’re back! @psychedelictony.bsky.social

November #BenchBooze with a hot mulled Aperol Spritz 🍹 Snacks’n’Sax theme today, we got some funny looks in the park with Baker Street booming out 🎷😆👯💖

Sharing a lovely record received in the post from @cdburt4.bsky.social thank you so much! #WeekendSingles

A few years ago I framed my Stone Roses post cards, bought from the poster shop in Afflecks Palace around 1991, they spent all of the 90s pinned on the walls of my various bedrooms from home to Uni to Manchester and back again ❤️

Hey team, I’ve been digging in one of the old school Manchester record shops this weekend, just getting a brew and catching up on all your lovely posts #WeekendSingles

I’m listening to Mike Joyce’s book at the moment, so spotting this beer in Manchester today made me smile #IYKYK 😆

Little Mani moments all over Manchester today 🍋❤️

In 89 I fell in love with The Stone Roses, they were the posters on my wall, the band we went to the ends of the earth to watch, the vinyl we collected, the T-shirts we bought in Afflecks palace & the band we stalked through the streets of Manchester in the early 90s Gutted. RIP Mani ❤️🍋

TOTP 1982, Martin, Nick, Kevin and Terry, doesn’t get much better. What a year for music.

Watching an old TOTP. Billy, what an absolutely beautiful man and mesmerising to see him on stage 😍

Absolutely loving Mike Joyce’s book. Laughing at the story about stalking the Buzzcocks, totally reminds me of walking the streets of Manchester trying to find the home of Chainmail, the James fan club back in the day.

A few records for #WeekendSingles sorry for the late post, been up to my neck in shoeboxes all day! 🎁

Guess what song the choir sang at the finale of the Barrow light switch on? It’s pretty unexpected, if you can guess it you’ll get a prize! 🍾😆

💕 Good morning from Belle & Sebastian hour 💕 ‘Perfect love is like a blossom that fades so quick when it's blowing up a storm in May’

Interesting little interview here @philk282.bsky.social americansongwriter.com/roxy-musics-...

There’s a wild storm outside, I’m sat in the warm with a hot chocolate and this gorgeous record. The Night I Heard Caruso Sing is just so beautiful 💜

Co-ordinating my flowers with my records 💕

Just got my @vinylsanta.bsky.social name through…I’m in deep on someone’s profile searching for inspo 🕵🏻‍♀️🤶🏼 Ho Ho Ho

Now playing, is this the greatest incarnation of Saint Julian?

Another load of shoe boxes ready to go to Ukraine 🎁🇺🇦 As I sit here wrapping & packing with the rain & dark outside, I’m thinking of the children I met in the orphanages and of their little faces when we arrived with their boxes and I know it’s all worth the effort 🥰

Now playing 🙌🏼

Next Saturday is UlverSTEM, our 8th year of bringing an entirely free day of interactive STEM activities to the Furness area, last year we had almost 2,000 people attending, we’ll have shows & stalls & a huge range of interactive fun for all the family. Please join us! 🔭🧪⚗️🧬👩🏻‍🔬🧑🏻‍💻

This is so true for me! #WeekendSingles

Hey #WeekendSingles here’s something fabulous to look forward to in 2026 🖤🤍

James have just uploaded the original Sit Down video on their You Tube channel. It’s such an omnipresent song now, but I love the early raw versions youtu.be/cJG8VBpqOnQ?si…

Good morning from South Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Look though! I’m so happy to have one at last 😍 The guy at the record shop said the band went in there to shop every time they played in Athens #weekendsingles

A nice little find in Athens today #WeekendSingles

Without doubt the most stressful record buying experience of my life, I was rewarded though 🙏🏼 #WeekendSingles

Another all killer and one filler, a favourite album of @philk282.bsky.social and I from The National. Turtleneck doesn’t fit on this record, it jars every time I hear it, whereas every other track is lush #WeekendSingles

Here’s my perfect album with one track I can’t bear, I’ve spent 36 years skipping it 😆 #WeekendSingles

What a mega cool restaurant, DJ is playing great funk tunes

Wherever I am in the world I always like to bring home a little bit of Glasgow! 🇬🇷

You’d have to go a long way to find a cooler record shop than the one I’ve found this morning! #WeekendSingles

And is he being a strong voice for their constituency, listening to people and campaigning on health end education, economy and investment in the area? The things that will lift them out of poverty. That’s the question his constituents need to ask…

Uplifting song of the day.. ‘Seven brothers on their way from Avalon Seven sisters shooting skyways for the sun Homer's Iliad lay burning in the fire I was pleased just then 'til you said That the sun will never shine’ ☀️ open.spotify.com/track/78QX77...

The Acropolis, the first time the view has been unobstructed by scaffolding in 200 years, wow.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.

Just heard this version for the first time, I really enjoyed it, very different from Billy’s, more melancholy than frantic. open.spotify.com/track/7fOZbg...
