Marty Supreme was... bonkers AF. Mainly, I loved it. The song at the end was the best bit though...of course.

There is no cast. Shameful under reporting of Eddie Grundy's life and times. And as for Nelson Gabriel... one mention? One? Still. Better than Debbie Aldridge got. Very poor reporting here.

Happy Christmas to all the friends old and new I have connected/reconnected with on BlueSky.

Royal Mail is rubbish. Massive extra charges on my yarn and even tho they've had it for days, they probs won't be delivering til after Xmas. No option to go in person to pick it up. It's a 10 mins walk! I could happily nip down there right now. But no. No Xmas yarn for me. ☹️ Xmas is cancelled.

Delighted to finally find out who won Game of wool. 😁 Looking forward to watching it later on. Such a lovely show. I do hope it comes back. Although I think they will struggle to find a better nicer lovelier group of knitters.

Me wanting anything to happen...winners in competitions, football results, happy endings in tv/film ... is almost always the kiss of death.

I mean, even if it were, in fact pejorative, and I accept that US English and UK English may differ on this one...we are, in fact, largely dicking around!

My thing is...I don't understand this desire to influence people that so many people have. This obviously means I'm a relic of the past and should just shuffle off asap.

Checking the barbican theatre website I see info about dogs but nothing about induction loops. This probably means there isn't an induction loop. In 2025, how can a major arts venue not have an induction loop. ☹️ The concert hall has one. Why not the theatre?

Make your own kind of music... IYKYK

Rail services seem to be collapsing. What is going on.

This is madness. They way they just lump all house under one heading. I listen to nervous house thank you very much. No bold or brave house here. Just the nervous kind. And I spell new properly.

So I have to choose between knitting and dr who on Sunday. Obviously it's not a choice, I will be watching dr who duh but I'm pissed off that they couldn't have put it on at 9.

Apparently my listening age is 38. However Spotify definitely can't be trusted. It reckons my top 5 artists are max richter plus the orchestra he conducts on my top listened to piece and separately the soloist. So yeah. It doesn't know what it's doing.

The ingenious gentleman is one of the absolute loveliest @bigfinish.bsky.social audios I have ever heard. Just brilliant.

I got our tickets for Superstar this morning. It's not that long since we last saw it (the touring version) but still I'm ridiculously excited. It's such a great production.

Delivery attempt failed did it? The house was full at the time you say you tried to deliver my package. Nobody even came up the path. You Just. Didn't. Bother.

Royal Mail is, without a doubt, the worst parcel delivery company now.

You work on commission, right? Big mistake. Big. Huge, Charlie Brown.

£110 for a STANDING ticket? In a small venue? Yeah I think not. I'm too bloody short. And too averse to being squished. Sad day though, the circumstances under which I'd be open to seeing the pets have just shrunk a little bit more.

I was really properly happy ... after a few terrible weeks ... but sadly it didn't last.

As always me and my people will now be asking ourselves the most important question which is...but what does this mean for Dr who???

I never had to deal with the crematoria where my mum and dad died. My dad handled for my mum and my husband handled it for my dad. So I don't have a point of reference but I can say, dealing with a pet crematorium? Is just seriously seriously upsetting. In a way that I don't think it needs to be.

I'm done.

There are builders doing their thing in my road (there's always builders. I'm not complaining. I have builders booked for January). Whatever they are doing, sounds like a succession of really loud farts. It's great. I'm laughing for the first time in over a week.

Sometimes I forget how much I love Dexter Gordon.

The Trainline app is such trash. It used to be one of the best apps there was but now? You try to use it and it's like looking at a local news website. Just woeful. How did this happen.

You would think that at my age I'd've used up my quota of tears. You'd be wrong.

I shall be hearing the people sing. Again. For like the billionth time. RAH website fell over WHAT a surprise. But I prevailed.

Too soon #COYS

Actually I'm thinking more and more that *every* day is clearly not a day for me being online. Upsetting stuff going on, upsetting people doing what they do... wrong people doing what they do... football about to be doing what it does... it's all one big trashpocalypse.

Today is clearly not a day for me to be online.

Is this not basically Judge John Deed?

I have now paid for my kitchen.

Just paid for the kitchen. I'm gonna be holding my breath now til it's actually... there.

If when why what

Increasingly I'm seeing people saying stuff along the lines of: 'AI is definitely no good for what *I* do, but see that person over there, it would be great for what *she* does'.

Music really is the only thing.

I am on my last nerve with IKEA. Who else does kitchens in the IKEA price bracket?

Some people are so rude.

I had to look that up. I had no idea they were still making those. I must have seen the first film a million times and none of them were by choice. Incidentally I enquired about the mando film with the culprits from the avatar business and they say Zeb is gonna be in it. So I might be seeing that.

Trains are all ducked today. Thus, I’m wondering who thought it was a good idea to run one of those exotic experience trains along our track which is making this worse.

I went to the Cinema last weekend. For the first time since Glad 2. And I'm going to the cinema tomorrow also. This is...weird. But also good.

@iainl7.bsky.social on an unrelated matter. Do you know anything about AirPods?

I'm getting increasingly irritated by Royal Mail lying. And then lying again in a way inconsistent with the first lies.
