Sometimes silence is the best soundtrack for fall. #CalvinandHobbes #AutumnVibes

I’ve just put up a post at www.sofasound.com about various bits of news. Less than a week to go now before the start of my uk mini-tour. Roll up, roll up, who knows when (or if) the next one will be!

"Tylenol tempteth demons into thy soul to curseth thee with the Goblin Autism Pox. Verily, a forest spirit hath told me so in dreams" #ASD #Autism #paracetamol

First listen to BBC Radio 3 Unwind on the little DAB radio. A good, chilled start to a Monday.

#NowWatching Marillion on Sky Arse. They're very good, you know.

#np Thrak - King Crimson I avoid "favourites" Let's stick with most frequently played

#np I See You - Gong

The Captain of Air Force One asked us to touch up one or two areas of damaged paint on the fuselage prior to flying back. I'll tell you what, Benny in Maintenance has played an absolute blinder. They're going to be delighted. Credit @pootietang.bsky.social‬

KLAXON!

Jim Christopulos' film documenting the VdGG show at the Beacon, NYC, '76 goes online tonight. This marries newly found footage with audio and together with stills, eyewitness testimony and reminiscence it paints a graphic picture of the event. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gPT... from 18.00 UK time.

I'm reminded of The Dish when the band played the Hawaii 50 theme tune by mistake instead of the US national anthem. No such luck. Out.

What a big old load of bollocks. Nice horses though. Happily Trump is confined to the grounds. Good to see the public being protected from him.

Robert Redford, gone at 89. Bless him.

That new Banksy mural on the RCJ is pathetic imho. Unjustified enemies of the people vibes.

Baked. Mary Berry recipe Vicky sandwich. Pleased with that.

Morning spent at the local rspb res. It's better when there is water in the "pools" Good walk though.

#np Ed Harcourt - Lucid Red EP. #BandcampFriday

I may be some time...

#np Gong - I See You (10th Anniv)

Last one on politics, just so that you know (although obvious) that odious cnut Farage can go and fuck himself. Off to Bandcamp for a browse.

Rayner is absolute class. She's been a bit silly in organising her taxes, but that's not why they hate her. They hate her because she did not know her place.

Quick trip to the chemist. Still damp.

From the Eye.

Oo, err, Missus. The afternoon walk would have to be a swim. 🌧⛈️🌧

Early gardening, replacing divots left by non-members. Either fox or badger would be my guess. Bless 'em.

It's a little cooler today. May bake something. 🍰

A quiet day. Out for a long walk. Cocteau Twins in the ears. Happy Birthday Liz.

As I said to my newsagent, “Everything that’s wrong, poisonous and stupid about this country, please…. I’m sorry, I meant The Daily Telegraph and Daily Mail, please.”

We drove 100 miles and dumped grandad outside a cafe because he was being a racist old shit.

This Brit nails it. #Immigration

#np Timeless Sky - Astropilot & Crows Labyrinth

Second breakfast at RSPB Old Moor. Walkies.

Kinell. Wickliff Gene on C4News, rugby on beeb 1. Rappy crappy on totp. Looks like being the Cyndi Lauper concert I downloaded.

Er? Hexcuse me. Would you kindly fuck off? #totp

Mildly irritating: on the tv ad for Right Move (woman dives off a cliff into the sea) - yeah, great property, except - how does she get back home? 🤔

I'm out of practice with that archaic writing thing. I just screwed up my own signature. More delays, replacement-form requested.

New CEEFAUXs all week!

Two premium bond wins in two months. Third time more-lucky, I hope.

Chilling with #np Trisector- Van Der Graaf Generator

Well, that's the privet cut. Cooler than yesterday but much more humid. Pretty damn awful all round.

Ooh! Shooting the Past tonight BBC4 (iPlayer too). Perfect Poliakoff

30°C🥵 - I've put two ice blocks in front of the fan. 26°C in here now. 👍

This is my fault. I should never watch a movie that The Grauniad recommends. Not one redeeming quality - The Thicket.
