Here's a 10 minute treat for everyone

Family football viewing today: Luka Modrić in a unique setting, the Wear-Tyne derby, followed by Leeds United at Brentford…Get out the compression socks and the big bottle of Valium.

These (this) popped up on the other place*. Seven years ago, sometime around about now, Mike Stax of American print magazine Ugly Things gave Not In Front of the Children: Hidden Histories in Kids’ TV a very nice review. Thanks Mike. * not THAT other place, the other other place.

Zappa and The Mothers doing their stuff in 1974 for an unaired tv special. I love this era. youtu.be/2Gdw7lFYdCw?...

Out at Zennor on a sunny day last week after all the stormy weather.

Shout out to this book I edited, now available from Amazon, Barnes and Noble etc. It’s a biography of the Scottish rock star Frankie Miller written by his friend Davy Arthur; it’s full of atmosphere, enthusiasm and personal detail. #booksky

Gray Lightfoot’s website is worth checking out.

Gonna try and listen to every classic metal / proto-metal / metal-adjacent LP ever made in chronological order (or at least see how I far get) Number 1! Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin (1969, Atlantic)

PREORDER: 'The Library Archive: Vol. 4' by The Library Archive Fresh set from ATA Records covering many forms of library music from the classic grooves of David Shire and Roger Webb, cult film scores, video game scores, and string-laden funk. www.normanrecords.com/records/2116...

Amicus second anthology takes a fine cast to a funfair of fear care of Robert Bloch's twisted tales. Their least loved but it's superbly sinister fun. 1967. #horrorcommunity #horrorfamily #film #horrormovie #horrorfilm #horrorfan #classichorror #horroraddict #filmsky #horrorsky #mutantfam #horrorfam

Early morning rainbow in the Deep South West.

Horror Express. 1972. Splendid Spanish export. Cushing and Lee thwart an alien fossil as Savalas turns zombie cossack. First class ticket to Europulp terror. #horrorcommunity #horrorfamily #horrormovie #horrorfilm #horrorfan #classichorror #horroraddict #filmsky #horrorsky #mutantfam #horrorfam

I’m in the all consuming research and ideas stage a new non fiction book. This mostly revolves around finding and buying out of print books, hunting through them and leaving behind a trail of paper slips with illegible notes written on them. #thesmellofoldbooks #iamwriting

Some flowers from the garden. Picked and put beautifully in a pot by my son.

Not exaggerating when I say this has been the most exciting thing to happen this weekend

Morrab Gardens a few days back.

Feeling pretty Autumnal.

Final destination for a terrific cast when Cushing as Death deals fate to doomed souls on a train to hell. Fabulous first of Amicus' fine anthologies. 1965. #horrorcommunity #horrorfamily #film #horrormovie #horrorfilm #horrorfan #classichorror #horroraddict #filmsky #horrorsky #mutantfam #horrorfam

Beautiful evening with a wild Atlantic weather front. Just now.

Morning listening (when the power’s not out). From Dream Skills on the Manchester cassette label Tombed Vision Records. tombedvisionsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/i-carr...

Listening now. Another release from LA label Dinzu Artefacts. Line Drawing by Arran Poole: bow chimes layered to create unsettling and hauntingly beautiful drone music. dinzuartefacts.bandcamp.com/album/line-d...

Went for a walk in Penzance with @sarahhealeyeditor.bsky.social, got a hair cut and saw some rather splendid trees.

Jazz, electronics, soundtrack vibes and more. Atoms in the Void by Ivan the Tolerable & Hawksmoor on Library of the Occult - probably one of the most interesting and arresting record labels around. libraryoftheoccult.bandcamp.com/album/atoms-...
