Happy Pride everyone, whatever you are up to may the day treat you well & may your home be full of cushions… talking of which, how about a treat for yourself or a loved one? Created via a collaboration of two LGBT+ people. The wonderful artist @sylvesterartist.bsky.social & myself, an upholsterer 🏳️‍🌈

Worth every penny, even if I do say so myself. Beautiful paintings created by @sylvesterartist.bsky.social replicated in detail onto a tactile, high quality velvet then handmade into large cushions by me. A lot of compliments from those who saw them in person at Andy’s wonderful exhibition…

If near Cheltenham go see @andyduchess.bsky.social’s wonderful show at Spring Cheltenham… buy a painting, a print or a limited edition hand-made cushion. If you can’t make it but interested in the cushions message me or Andy. £60 each, softest velvet & obviously featuring Andy’s fabulous portraits

Would be rude not stop off for lunch on the way home from Cheltenham #IYKYK

Cheltenham, you have been gorgeous

Near Cheltenham this weekend? Pop in to Spring Cheltenham to see Andy Sylvester’s colourful, evocative collection of portraits. You can also buy one of the handmade velvet cushions Muse Bespoke Upholstery have made in collaboration with Andy. Or message to snap one up! £60 each plus p and p

Streeting is Labour’s Gove

Proud of @exiledinlondon.bsky.social and us ❤️❤️

A double celebration this evening. My being promoted at work 🎉 and Ten years to the day with @balhamyte.bsky.social 😊

America, sort your sh!t out. Your lunatic is f*cking up the world #GetRidOfTrump

Anyone else got Liz Truss vibes from Hariette? #TraitorsUK

I think I need to do a bit of a clear up at the workshop as no space to attach any of the rest of the mess to the walls

Happy 5th @exiledinlondon.bsky.social Thank you for being my rock, especially considering the way this year has behaved

If you see this, repost with a vampire that is not Dracula

An animal weekend

A question for jelly fans (those who eat it rather than those who play in it in the bath… although as experts I’m up for your answers too!). Any brands out there that actually still taste of anything?!

Let the day commence… in 32 minutes… not that I’m counting

There had to be a diamond on the ring finger, it was for a wedding 🏳️‍🌈💍

Is the time finally here? Is the creepy loner who sits in the corner muttering & picking his nose finally going to release the dirt on the spiteful orange man baby? #MuskVTrump

So, #Eurovision. Who is bringing the looks? Who has come up with a catchy little ditty? Who do we want to win?

Proud that Muse Bespoke Upholstery has been included in The List, curated by House & Garden. Hard work has got me there but feels great to be acknowledged by people who understand the industry, resulting in being included on their trusted list of approved experts in their fields

Caledonian Sleeper. No sleep as didn't see that CPAP machines don't function on these trains when booking. Been up all night. Joy. Have some pictures from the weekend in Glasgow...

Guilty as charged. Sorry @exiledinlondon.bsky.social

Genuine question. Why do so many seem to be allergic to headphones? Is there something doing the rounds on socials? Full video call meeting discussing private details going on next to me with info being broadcast to the room. So unprofessional. Don’t get me started about people on public transport!

January randoms

Final project completed, time to down tools and have a very well earned break. Book is open for ‘25 so shout if you have any upholstery needs www.musebespokeupholstery.com

Seems I am alone in thinking the way Emmerdale wrapped up the Tom/Belle story was pumped with unnecessary soap tension build up and then totally flawed tonight by having well known actors playing jurors. The only positive was the sensitive portrayal of the voices of real victims at the end

Photograph of Christmas decorations in central London. Groundbreaking. Sure are pretty though 🎄👼🏻

Don’t even think about nesting in that roof y’hear? Bad enough having to listen to the constant orgies going on up on the tiles

Finally done for the day. Home time

Everyone should own bedroom art #PaulLeChien

December the 1st. Christmas adornment can begin. An understated one this year methinks. Let’s see how that goes shall we?!

Give this fun tool a whirl to check out your engagement with this platform. See what your #SkeetCap for the year looks like at skeetcap.com. Created by @lukeacl.com 👏🏻

The Groucho Club license suspended with “immediate effect” after it was reported “a serious crime may have taken place” at the venue. Has the Met stopped turning a blind eye to what goes on in so many London venues or has crime ramped up in Soho?

Another list of lovely people which hopefully helps find the decent ones we engaged with on the other platform. Thank you @nothinghuman.bsky.social go.bsky.app/2weYZXJ

Loving this Satrter pack function, such a great way to find those from the other place and meet new faces. Thank you @noshayminthat.bsky.social for collating and sharing this one go.bsky.app/xHsJ3W

Great bunch of people. Thank you @andy1987.bsky.social for putting the list together and sharing

Guys! I'm thinking of making starter packs for gays all hunting for our tribes here on Bluesky. Thinking UK gay guys 🇬🇧, gay board gamers 🎲 and gay video gamers 🕹️. If they go well I'll do more. If you want in on any reply with the appropriate emoji from above and repost to spread the word. Thanks xx

Who can help me out here? I saw a photo of a ginger cat, from above, blending into a very similar colour floor. Anyone know it or seen it? Driving me loopy not being able to find it! #ADHDbrain #gingercat

Show me your pet and what/who they were named after Molly (madam of her own Molly House) www.prisonersofeternity.com/blog/mother-...

Fun night out. Fantastic performance

Clunky additions to the narrative, one in particular not sitting right but fantastic performances from Manville & Strong #Oedipus
