My friend went to Krankenhaus this weekend and came back raving about seeing the film King Rocker. I designed this last year but did nothing with it. That’s fine, but I wanted to put it out there again to show my appreciation for having Vindaloo records in my early teens. Bostin’.

My @nightingalesuk.bsky.social pill box has arrived. Lovely. Top merch.

Annual health check this week, blood pressure etc all normal so I don't need any extra pills on top of what I already take and my new @nightingalesuk.bsky.social pill box is just the right size. (I don't normally keep a 'Gales album next to my bed, that's just for illustration)

We sold 75% of our pillbox stock in 24 hours … certainly we know our demographic nightingales.bigcartel.com/product/pill...

As it’s Rob Lloyd’s birthday I thought I’d have a night off playing the @nightingalesuk.bsky.social. Many happy returns chief 🥃

Happy birthday Robert!

Happy Birthday Robert Lloyd - a true MDANT! I still remember hearing that first John Peel Session way back last century. Have a good day sir! 🫡🍻

Happy Birthday to our Robert! The unstoppable force, who’s been doing the business for nigh on half a century! Bottoms up chief XXX

Outstanding merch

INTRODUCING : THE NIGHTINGALES PILLBOX The awful truth is... A quarter of UK adults take several prescribed medicines every week but now with the Nightingales’ new stylish pill box - tablets can be arranged and dispensed with great panache Order today nightingales.bigcartel.com/product/pill...

Another novel piece of merch from the 'Gales. I'm at that age where I take two different prescribed pills every day and this looks much more stylish than the flimsy container I currently keep them in.

At last - band merchandising targeting MY demographic! 😁 Excellent! 👴👏
