Better scan of Kev’s brilliant print. Loved his work for the NME when I was learning my photography chops as an art student.

I only had two rolls of film, as that was all I could afford, so I had to make every frame count…” Kevin Cummins on his iconic Joy Division bridge shoot. Published OTD in the NME January 6 1979 www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

Chestnut, shallot & ale pie leftover from NYD so I reckon this is the perfect accompaniment. Gorgeous. 6.9% though so I’m taking it steady. Sliànte! 🍻

Slow start for me here today

Great clickbait from the horrible Metro… comments 100% raging… fair enough really! Eejuts

Happy New Year, pals. Lovely day in Monifieth with my Ma. Keep on chooglin’ 🙌🏼

New Year’s Eve, always shite. Loads of great things happened in 2025 but my brain is busy focusing on all the bad stuff. Thanks, brain. Time for a reboot. Hope 2026 is a good one for all of you good souls on here. 🙏🏼

Today’s earworm 💜

First time logging in FB since Bardot died… wow that one has split the troops, eh. Don’t generally stick the boot straight in the minute someone croaks (there are exceptions, tho… GTF Thatcher) but personally I’m 100% on board with the guy who said “I don’t commemorate racists” won’t be missed here

Lucky Chrimbo socks it is then 💚 #GGTTH

Mon the Cabbage 💚💚

Sent oot for the messages oops

Boxmas Day with the fam today… let the chaos commence 😮‍💨

Cracking Solstice… hope all you fine folks had a good one, however you celebrated 🙏🏼

With the pictures this time

Solstice sunrise. Good morning, chums 🌅

My children… this bunch just let me crash their Chrimbo piss-up for the second year running. Lovely young people

Tasty drop. Cheers all. Good health 👍🏻🍻

The Fabs recording ‘Being for the Benefit of Mr Kite’ in March ‘67. The Pepper era was the coolest for clobber, IMHO. Well, apart from George, who appears to be wearing Nick Drake’s bedsit rug here. 🌈 💛

2017 (!) - the ace Stevie Pilgrim at Woodland Creatures on Leith Walk with ma pal @pow64.bsky.social. Top night! 🙌🏼

Mrs S just tested positive for Covid this morning, which is all round shite news, obviously. The vaccine has really been grudgingly administered this year, and it’s about £100 for a private jab apparently!

Love a winter commute home 🚲 🙌🏼

Lot of JL love on the tinternet this past week, so I have dug out my 45s for a Sunday #WeekendSingles spin. Most of these came from a Sally Army shop many years back, 4 for a quid! Great find. RIP JL. 🍏✌🏼♥️

Went to Waverley Market to get our NHS ‘flu jabs 🩼💪🏼 - hadn’t been in an age, love these! Don’t know who the artist is.

Jackpot… tuned into BBC Radio Scotland and there’s the absolute dream combo @nicolameighan.bsky.social and @rossmaclean.bsky.social reviewing the fillums… well worth a wee listen back on Sounds. Top chat. Well jealous of you going to see The Shining on the iMax, Ross ! 🎥🍿🪓

Great way to give ££ to a great charity. There’s only 250 of these! 🕊️✌🏼 shop.teenagecancertrust.org/products/dov...

Sorted! 👊🏼💚

Wednesday 🙌🏼

Cheers all 🙌🏼🍻

Madame Tussauds Black Friday reject bin fire sale. 50% off slightly melted stock 🙌🏼

Some Fabs related 50p doubles - I was missing a couple of sleeves… #WeekendSingles

Long shot this but I have f*cked up 100% and missed out on the @thehibees.bsky.social calendar signing for this year so will be the world’s worst Uncle unless anyone has a ticket they can’t use and are willing to sell 🙏🏼

Big win for the Hibees today. Just got in and Postie’s been too with my #WeekendSingles contribution for this weekend. Nice one! Sliánte y’all 🙌🏼 🍻

Mixing politics and sport, eh… only when it suits.

Firstborn has been home this week, leaving his filth around the house. Absolutely not having this. Abomination.

Peaked too soon there… it gets better!

This will be amazing. I’d go if it wasn’t an eight hour round trip!

Buongiorno from Edinburgh 💜

Lovely stuff. Worth a pic to share. Sliánte all 🍻

Got two tickets for The Limiñanas tonight in Glasgow to give away. If anyone fancies send us a message.

When did £48 become standard for an LP?!

This! And his first attempt too. The man was brilliant. A total one off.

Gonna keep an eye on this… I have got a couple of Alasdair’s drawings stashed away somewhere!
