So this is the first of the 50th Anniversary things I was going on about the other day. I was 5 when I saw this on Tomorrow's World which was one of my favourite TV shows at the time. The year 2000 seemed a very long way away then. It's a very long way away now in the other direction-

This should worry everyone of us www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Sad to hear Danny Thompson has died. I'll be spinning John Martyn's magnum opus Solid Air later on which Danny played in tribute. #RIP #DannyThompson #Pentangle #JohnMartyn #NickDrake #RichardThompson

This is a fantastic health breakthrough.

Time for these old chestnuts to come out again.

The Father Ted that's still available to watch on 4? The one that's got a dead famous meme about the main character being racist? That Father Ted? x

Hello Bluesky... 💙😎💙 m.youtube.com/watch?v=s7dT...

Why on earth is the BBC running a live blog of this American hate fest? The murder of Charlie Kirk was sad and significant, but do we really need live coverage of a series of white men seeking to make political capital from it? Why is a public service broadcaster amplifying his hateful views?

Got this from Instagram. Humphrey Bogart and Dorothy Malone in The Big Sleep. Pretty racey for 1946.

Cranks - recognise Palestine! Starmer - we’re formally recognising Palestine. Cranks - you’re not doing it properly/on time/for the right reasons/ with the correct font! This is why Compo’s idiotic party was doomed. Idiots chasing purity over all else.

Well, there we go 😎 www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cp...

I did not know there was a public vote to name the new railway vehicle that will remove leaves from the line and keep more services running on time. But I sure as hell would have voted for the name that won! Control Alt Deleaf Awesome name. Well done UK public for picking this name.

The Germans aren’t buying it.

Absolutely bloody fantastic! GB's Amy Hunt wins silver in the women's 200m at the World Championships. Been following her for a couple of years now and she's progressed SO well! Was only a matter of time! Here she is wondering if she did it and then realising she did!

Who knew that the first Pompey mascot was a parrot that lived from 1899 to 1934 and attended every home match during its lifetime, and could squawk Play up Pompey

Humane mouse traps have been set up in the wake of Wednesday's surprise visitor to the house. Hopefully, they won't catch anything and our tiny little pal has already found its way out because if we do catch a mouse then we're going to need to take it for a fairly long ride to comply with the […]

Fox on the driveway…

This is what classic beauty looks like. 💙 For those of you that don’t know who she is, it’s Ingrid Bergman

Reactions like this to brians story show why it's valuable to keep talking about. As artists we are living the situation and assume others are aware, but the truth is most people do not know

Blimey, lots of praise for Starmer from a whole host of sources, some quite unexpected. It’s good to see. And incredibly well deserved.

September 18, 1976 One Hit Wonders Wild Cherry started a three week run at No.1 on the US singles chart with 'Play That Funky Music'. The song started life as a B-side. #ClassicVinyl #MusicSky youtu.be/SFiv9M577a4?...

Oh FFS! 🙄 www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cx...

"Sometimes we have to sit down & negotiate with people with whom we profoundly disagree". Not quite verbatim, but who said these words?

What a load of nonsense. I’ve always felt safe around those areas and anyone that says different will get duffed up and have their pocket money nicked… www.portsmouth.co.uk/news/crime/9...

September 17, 1978 The video for Queen's single 'Bicycle Race' was filmed at Wimbledon Stadium, Wimbledon, UK. It featured 65 naked female professional models racing around the stadium's track on bicycles, which had been hired for the day. 🎶🎤🎸🤘 #ClassicRock #RockNRoll youtu.be/xt0V0_1MS0Q?...

Essential viewing…

September 16, 1978 Boston's second album, Don't Look Back, hits #1 in America. Their self-titled debut sold over 17 million, but never hit the top spot. #ClassicRock #RockNRoll #ClassicVinyl #MusicSky youtu.be/2HuiH-0R6a0?...

I have friends who are £130 pm better off due of the increase in min wage. Plus they now get free breakfast and from September 26 they will get free school dinners too. Thats massive for them, there will be lots of people in the same position, improvements are being felt but you never hear about it.

A Black man and a homeless man were found hanging from trees in Mississippi yesterday, for those who haven’t seen yet because it’s barely made it out of local news.

See the reply from Douglas Bader’s (WW2 hero) relatives Superb!

One of the most beautiful and talented men who ever lived. RIP😿💔

Apple has blocked the Daily Mail. The Daily Fail claims that they have been “arbitrarily” excluded from joining Apple News in the UK. Perhaps if they publish real news and not the usual hateful, right-wing propaganda nonsense it might help?

And Corbyn’s not? 🤷‍♂️

Gig-goers in the SW2 area, or indeed anywhere across the sprawling metropolis! The mighty English Garden are at The Windmill in Brixton tomorrow evening (16th). What better way to ease your way tentatively into midweek than a bit of frantic, utterly marvellous post-punk? They really are jolly good.

John Mousinho is backing 'exceptional' Ben Killip to answer #Pompey's SOS once again.

Is that really worse than the team in red & white who were pretending to be footballers? 🤔 #Pompey 😁

While a win would have been nice it was hugely gratifying that pompey seem to be in a better place than saints. We have great manager, excellent owner, grounded but talented team and happy fans.

And on that worrying note. LOS youtu.be/zKQfxi8V5FA?...
