Müller Corner for growed-ups?!

I've only just discovered that there's a tribute act called Billy Blagg 👏👏👏

Post a pic of the venue where you saw your first concert and the band or artist. Well, it was definitely the Locarno in Bristol. But, I honestly can't remember which of these three bands it was!

Gosh, what are the odds...

I heard tell it was your birthday today @davidjboughton.bsky.social So...

Be still my teenage beating heart... I fancied him *even* in that jumper! 😁 #PaulYoungAtTheBBC

40+ years later, and I still can't hear this song without getting a bit of a tear in my eye... I played it on repeat for weeks after a boy I had been dating at the time died in a car crash. #PaulYoungAtTheBBC

Nearly forgot about Paul... Looking forward to this! #PaulYoungAtTheBBC

What is the condition? And how do I get it?! 😉😁

I survived! Why do some young women talk in that rapid machine gun fire kind of way? My senses are feeling very assaulted right now! 🙉

I am in attendance at a Baby Shower...

Does anyone know the way. There's got to be a way to...

Well, some of you may have thought that my #DailyDymspiration messages were a bit harsh at times... But, at least I wasn't posting this kind of twaddle! 🤮

"I promise that I will do my best. And do my duty to God. To serve the Queen, and help other people, and keep the brownie guide law" *does the salute*

Loving seeing everybody's #ChildhoodCinema pics... There are some wonderful buildings out there. If anyone else has got any stonkers of the genre, gissa look! 🙂

Returning to the subject of childhood cinema... One of the best things about being taken by a parent was the rare treat of being allowed a whole box* of sweets all to yourself! Which, in my case, usually meant either Smarties or Fruit Pastilles. *a box that at the time seemed mahoosive.

On the subject of cinemas, one of my favourites is The Alhambra in Keswick. I used to be up there a lot, and on every trip I would make sure I'd go. Even if it was to see a film that I wouldn't make the effort for at home. It's such a lovely building, and I always wanted to help keep it going.

What was your #ChildhoodCinema? The Odeon in Weston-super-Mare. And at the time, I was not at all appreciative of just what a gorgeous building it is! 😍 (the cinema was nearly lost a couple of years ago, I believe, but is still there now and renamed the Plaza)

Click clack...

Love this image/cover! 😍

Lower your standards. Lower your expectations. Lower your god damn voice and stop whining! #DailyDymspiration

I am very proud (and somewhat relieved) that despite the fact I am/was a Zumerzet girl born and bred...that this was *not* the first single that I ever bought! 😁

Oh my days... Mississipi was the very first record that I ever bought with my own money! I had just come out of hospital, and was given some money to treat myself. And this was the single that I bought. 🎶

Here comes Storm Goretti. A stupid name? You betti! 😁

Some interesting roundels on the Bakerloo line today.

It's chuffing it down outside, so I'm at home watching a documentary about The Moonies*...as you do! *not to be confused with either The Moomins or The Goonies.

In 2010* my old (aluminium) front door froze shut... Didn't realise this had happened until I couldn't get out when my friend came to pick me up for work. It ended up with me passing jugs of hot water through the window so that she could defrost me out! 😁 *on this very day, in fact.

See, it's your own fault... #DailyDymspiration

Another day, another rabbit hole... This one inspired by more of the music that I remember my mum listening to. 🎶 I've already done The Ink Spots and The Platters, and am now on The Mills Brothers. With this (I think) being my favourite:

Well, this prompted an obvious earworm (and then a few more) My mum was a big Nat King Cole fan, so I grew up hearing lots of his songs. And I nearly picked "Walking My Baby Back Home" as my favourite, but in the end, I decided it was this one. 🎶

Jump forward a year, and this will almost certainly read: "Dear Food Producers. Shoving stupid hot honey on top of absolutely fucking everything was *so* 2026. Can we move on now, please? Thank you."

Dear Food Producers. Shoving pistachio based green goo into absolutely fucking everything was *so* 2025. Can we move on now, please? Thank you.

I've already bought half a dozen presents ready for Christmas... Expensive Brands + January Sales = Nice Christmas '26 Presents For People. #Simples

Another dose of #DailyDymspiration And I hate to break it to you, but...

The best from a thread of songs featuring the Pepto Bismol guy! 😁

To put @daveamitri.bsky.social out of his misery before his bedtime... It was this! 🙂

God, you are so easily down a rabbit hole the minute you go anywhere near YT, aren't you! 😁 There will (not) be a prize for anyone who successfully guesses which one I *must* listen to next?!

Back in my "pretty boy" phase, I thought that Michael Praed was 👌

Hey @profpop.bsky.social, your rundown of PY songs has turned out to be very apposite - as I've just spotted that this is on the tellybox at the weekend! 👍

I just sent a message to my mate that contained the following sentence: "But, we can still go to their nice bar for some cock and mocktails" Thankfully, we both knew what I meant! 😁

Here's a bonus pic for #InternationalUnsolicitedDuckPicDay And for @gothiron.bsky.social As you can see, I am the kind of person who *does* have all their ducks in a row! 😁

Apparently, today is #InternationalUnsolicitedDuckPicDay So, behold my Toilet Duck(s)!! 🙂😁

They are mostly! #DailyDymspiration

It's not all that big a jump to go from Kirsty to Caro... And "Deleted Scenes From The Cutting Room Floor" was an album that I played obsessively back in the day. Might even have a little dance to it now! 🙂

I'll take triple points, ta. Cos all three are referenced somewhere in this song! 🙂 🎶 Ok, I didn't mention my kids, I thought I'd wait a bit But I am free & single and he's a lying git! Cause he lied about his status He lied about his life He forgot he had three children He forgot he had a wife 🎶

I beg your pardon...

Happy New Year! Saturday marks 163 years since the world's first underground railway, the Metropolitan Railway, opened between Paddington and Farringdon. So this week's theme is the London Underground! -- 'Paddington Station at Night' 1992 Doreen Fletcher doreenfletcherartist.com

Well, I never knew that! And I don't mind this gender change original... However, The Exciters at the zoo will always be my favourite version of this song. 🙂
