Record Store Day haul. I had to when I saw @porcupinetree.bsky.social and @psbhq.bsky.social

Just picked this up from my local bookshop and went straight to the last story. @johnnymains.co.uk thanks for freaking me out and making me cry all before 11 am because it's such a hauntingly beautiful story you wrote. @blpublishing.bsky.social you have done it again

I've heard the name Robert Aickman, because of @johnnymains.co.uk and so I was pleased to see a story by him in @blpublishing.bsky.social and holy moly I now *need* to find more stories by him. His style is so .... unsettling. As a reader you feel off kilter reading, it totally draws you in

Check out if this lovely man is coming to a bookshop near you

Spinning my own record on my hi fi tonight! Search "Riley Merrick elastic stage" to get your own copy! What's your favourite track? #guitar #rileymerrick #rockmusic #dittomusic #recordingartist

5 year old son asks if I can spell dragon so I got him to spell it out and write it. Smugly thinking that I was getting him to do some writing and spelling. It very quickly spiraled into words like poo, wee and then

When you turn 40 and your work colleagues keep it low key but buy you awesome presents like plants for insects, a dung beetle for the garden, plus loads of tea! @georgemcgavin.bsky.social

A lovely read from a lovely man, talk to your fellow human, you never know what you might find out (plus I get a little mention)

Criminal negligence by the Govenment

The news is foul, keep your loved ones close and enjoy the small things, like kitty cuddles

This is going to be an amazing evening! Come along.

I am lucky enough to say that I have seen one, dad and I would hunt for these in Cornwall and one day we found 2! He is no longer around but I still go out and hunt possible sites

Never in all my life did I think I would be able to stand in my own back garden in Cornwall, with my husband, (in pjs) and see the Northern Lights. It was like a fairytale.

Possessed a lost novel rediscovered by the endlessly determined @johnnymains.co.uk that has a nack (and a boat load of hardwork behind the scenes) for finding these incredible stories. All I will say is you will not see the twist coming and read his other finds from publisher Mislaid Books

This is such a heartfelt listen/read, if you have lost a loved one it's an important listen

I put this up on Instagram and not here, I got positive comments so I thought I would put it here too

This is going to be cool!!

I hate that lies have been spread about this wonderful man, he has done nothing but stand by his principles

I've reached the point in this period of timelessness where I'm "treating" myself to a chocolate if I've gone upstairs

Go see this lovely man in Falmouth!!!

Christmas books! And my son's goblin shark toy, because when you have a biologist mum you know your shark species at 4. @johnnymains.co.uk looking forward to starting "Possessed"

My cat looks like a quest giver in an RGP: a photo story

So, just to confirm, the BBC can’t keep Robin Ince on the air because his trans allyship brings the organisation into disrepute, but they can keep David Walliams, who performed Nazi salutes at the recording of this very show, on the air despite him being predatory towards women. Cool. Very normal.

@johnnymains.co.uk can you guess where I am?!!!

Morning marking: DENIED!!

The paws must be touching to make sure I stay there. Had Geddy for nearly 6 months and the healing continues, checking we have got to bed has become an important job for him recently

A very brave and lovely man standing up for what is right

Highly recommend becoming a patron of cosmic shambles they make great science content

Just bought tickets to this because it's gonna be awesome, spooky and above all interesting. Looking forward to it @johnnymains.co.uk

Go and see this very funny and lovely man, you will have a lovely evening I promise

Sometimes I have to pinch myself because at work last week I got to sit next to (and it seems stare at) Prof Ian Stewart on a panel discussing climate change and sustainability.

This is really worth a listen, The Lasting Harm is a difficult and oh so important read. Plus @robinince.bsky.social never gets a book recommendation wrong

www.facebook.com/share/p/1659... it's the season and the Cornish gritters are out

So proud of how the little man is getting on at school, an excellent school report where we were told he is polite and is making friends. He has used his charm on the dinner ladies so he can have fresh fruit for pudding rather than the tinned 🤣

Just read this and loved it. Originally written in Korean and translated. Different to western horror and so interesting because of the different feel which led to unsettled uneasiness reading it. Reminded me of some of the stories in The Dead of Summer by @johnnymains.co.uk plus sheep are scary

Halloween ready!!

Wes Streeting says "little or no support" for striking docs. Let's prove this cunt wrong. Repost if you wanna show solidarity with essential workers fighting for their rights after years of underfunding and real terms pay cuts. Who's with me? #NHSHeroes ✊️✊️✊️✊️✊️ www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Awesome takeover of Trelissick Gardens by Dark Cornwall. Myths and legends everywhere, plus those cheeky Piskies poping up all over the place @johnnymains.co.uk

"We are facing a water system failure that has left our infrastructure crumbling and sewage spilling into our rivers," How about not paying the share holders and actually invest in the infrastructure???!!!!! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Shameful

@johnnymains.co.uk this might be up your street if you are back in the country, it's on until the 2nd of Nov. Hosted by Dark Cornwall.

Can we organise this for South West Water after a "third party company" dumped the lime meant for the treatment process directly into the St Austell river (White river) killing all the fish, eels and lamprays?

The garden is blooming with mycorrhizal delight

@johnnymains.co.uk look!!! The shiny shiny has arrived in Cornwall And it's gorgeous 😍😍

This book is so important, a must read!!! One it changes how you see the world and two Robin is never wrong on a book recommendation

@johnnymains.co.uk Look Halloweird getting some love on Facebook via Clemo Books in Newquay

A very rough draft but I went for a walk, the light was strange and beautiful. I've felt a bit melancholy recently I think it might be my son starting school and the changes that are happening. Anyway echoes of folklore thanks to @johnnymains.co.uk
