My pedantic grumble during Small Prophets was ‘you never get joined-up Shreddies any more!’ … but this turned up today do perhaps there’s hope.

Coming soon from ye Colander Archive of Ancient Thynges …

Zoiks!

My @fromefm.bsky.social Rebellious Jukebox show from last Thursday. www.mixcloud.com/FromeFM/328-...

My first million.

My turn for the ritual humiliation that is the Live Vinyl Hour at 6pm tonight on Frome FM @fromefm.bsky.social www.frome.fm

The Man in a Suitcase rewatch continues apace with a delightfully stupid episode featuring Mike Sarne coming outside as a wannabe Andy Warhol, Z Cars’ Sgt Haggar, Sean O’Casey’s daughter, BLUTHAL, the ridiculously underexposed Bridget Armstrong and daft Italian accents all round.

Here my @fromefm.bsky.social radio show from last week with the feature on #Fome’s #BoundsOfSelwood #Morris side. Show sponsored by @ravesfromthegrave.bsky.social www.mixcloud.com/FromeFM/327-...

Let’s try out this new comic, first one out today (it is 1976 isn’t it?)

Always a joy to see the Sex Pistols on Music for Pleasure.

The waltz from Berlioz’ Symphonie Fantastique just on the radio. Talk about scarred for life, I can never hear it without wanting to go ‘Look Back”. @scarredforlife.bsky.social

My favourite thing about Winter Olympics is that it reminds me that I won’t have to put up with a proper Olympics for another two years.

Contemplating Suicide

What’s ‘The Traitors’?

I saw the Ikea Vilbert chair in Ikea Gateshead in 1994 but couldn’t afford the £75 for it. Went back when the student loan came in but the new catalogue had come in and Vilbert had been abandoned. Every time I see the price going up & up I nearly burst into tears.

Far away in time … I remember feeling old when I realised Echo Beach was 25 years old. Now it’s knocking 46. Also, when it was out, I had no idea that in 46 years time I’d have a very boring job as an office clerk.

How do people in TV ads make a living? Do they get a one-off payment that is so generous that they don’t have to do anything else for ages, or do they get a royalty? I’m fairly obsessed with people who appear on more than one for different products, like the pee-pants woman.

So, wracked with pain, terrified of oblivion or raddled with dementia?

Can anyone recommend a radio station that just plays a well-curated cross-section of classical music with minimal announcements & without pally presenters, self-aggrandising promos, news bulletins, ads for TV shows, e-mail-in listener participation contests &c? Basically, a pre-1990s Radio 3.

I’m doing Frome FM’s Live Vinyl Hour at 6pm. You have been warned. @fromefm.bsky.social 96.6FM in the Frome area or online at www.frome.fm

In memoriam HST, who could forget it passing the cooling towers of Didcot power station?

Particularly looking forward to the Gershom Parkington Quintet playing a selection of Bygone Melodies.

Frome FM @fromefm.bsky.social is festive nostalgia central this xmas, with repeats of the semi-legendary (just ask AI) Cast-Off Corner Xmas Special from Dec 2009 at 4pm today and 1pm tomorrow … www.frome.fm … Still on Mixcloud, too … www.mixcloud.com/FromeFM/cast...

Budget cuts call for diversification in the police service.
