Every morning I put three different types of seeds and grits on my porridge and I honestly don’t know why. It certainly doesn’t make it taste better. It appears that I’ve been taken in by the devious swines at Big Seed and Major Grit.

Ah, it’s beginning to look like setting my out of office automatic email response to “SEND NUDES” was probably a bad idea.

I’m off to Thornhill this afternoon. I always try and visit Thornhill as late as possible as I’m always hoping to run into Andy Goldsworthy re-arranging the yellow label items in the Co-Op.

I’m working on my difficult radio project again (it’s all drone shots).

Disappointed that Joe Montana didn’t toss the coin sixty yards there. #superbowl

I am staying up for the #Superbowl. I would like the Seahwaks to win. I have some snacks. I don’t know what a Bad Bunny is.

Going through the big pile of records I landed the other week and found the seven inch of “Imagine” in there. I’m guessing this was a gift from a parent to a child as the sweary b-side has been censored to unusable with a nail.

Good morning! I'm at work. youtu.be/zBekeqmJ7CM?...

You should always listen to @heavyweight.bsky.social. But you should especially listen to the new episode “Minneapolis, for obvious reasons. One less obvious reason is that it contains a new musical genre (Yacht Rap) but that’s just a bonus really. Please do listen. pca.st/episode/02ee...

Excitement on the school run this morning as an idiot driver had gone round a blind corner too fast, lost control and ended up on their side in a hedge. You can probably guess what make of car it was (maybe as your second guess, idk).

Good morning world!

Oh Mr Harry you have visualised your podcast too much now and knackered the audio experience. Silly Mr Harry.

I’ve decided to launch a digital music streaming service that gradually lowers the bitrate as you go through the album to mimic the effect of your needle getting covered in fluff.

Here are my top three favourite moments in any given episode of @threebeansaladpod.bsky.social. 1. Burgers 2. Halfords 3. Chumbawumba THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

Alright then, hand wash only jumper that has been nesting happily at the bottom of the washing basket for the last two house moves, I have purchased some delicate wash stuff and Today is The Day.

Wife and I have just had The Big Conversation and we’ve decided to sit this one out and wait for “Melania 2: Electric Boogaloo”.

You don’t see many out in the wild anymore but “To Car Free Park” has long been one of my favourite street signs.

Some beautiful maniac just gave me about a hundred amazing LPs on Freecycle.

Allwyn for the win!

Monday anthem time. youtu.be/vNhjQpevuQs?...

@visionsofjojo.bsky.social Aw, thank you for the repost, that’s a kindness. x

In July I set myself a challenge to run 5k Every Single Day for a year as a meditation on events in Palestine and to try to help support Medical Aid for Palestinians. Today I reached half way and I would LOVE it if you would consider making a wee donation. 🙏 www.justgiving.com/page/geoff-m...

I rewatched “When Harry Met Sally” the other day and had completely forgotten that Mark Bavaro makes a wee appearance.

This song has been playing on repeat in my head for a while now. youtu.be/mPpR4s_jvGM?...

Tonight I’m going to rewatch a film and have a few small beers.

I must admit that - probably due to watching Laugh In a lot as a child - I still have a great deal of confusion between Henrik Ibsen and Henry Gibson.

Pick up the nearest book. Turn to page 42, post the second sentence. “But it was like she’d been waiting till I was old enough to appreciate my present.”

One of my favourite things the noo is that redolent go live on YouTube every Tuesday evening and try and work out new songs. Their last album (Dinny Greet) was bloody brilliant and the new stuff sounds good already. Fun thing! www.youtube.com/live/8BjY_Ls...

Just quit my job. In that lovely “HELL YEAH THIS FEELS BETTER” period which, inevitably, will very soon be replaced with the “WHAT HAVE I DONE AND HOW ARE WE GOING TO LIVE” panic which, history tells me, lasts much, much longer. Anyway, ONWARD!

10pm UK time tomorrow. 🙏

What’s an album that always cheers you up when you listen to it? I’ll go first.

Mrs McQueen has now tried these and she doesn’t think the flavour is “dust”. Her best guess is “fungal foot infection”.

I am eating these. “Santa’s Secret Flavour” appears to be dust.

I’m listening to a dumb radio show where the presenter is talking to someone about playing the trumpet and this has, seamlessly, led to me browsing online and thinking about buying myself a trumpet. I’m a complete idiot.

I used to really love that bit in Ultravox’s “Love’s Great Adventure” video where Midge Ure stopped and the song stopped for a bit while he caught his breath. Lovely bit of business that.

Dumfries for a bit of a sonic adventure. immersivearts.uk/projects/pha... #PhantoSpectra

I don’t believe you

The world is on fire and literally everything is more awful than it has ever been. My advice is this: administer the new Julianna Barwick and Mary Lattimore album unto yourself NOW (and repeat every few hours as needed). juliannabarwick.bandcamp.com/album/tragic...

Morning. youtu.be/5nza7AlHV5I?...

The new Barwick and Lattimore album is - as you would totally expect - a thing of great beauty. I didn’t join in on the “f*ck ICE” stuff (although I’m completely in agreement), I just kept nagging them to come and play in Glasgow. You do what you can eh.

On what date did you have the best day of your life? No need to explain why, just the date is fine. I’ll go first: Monday 5th July 1982.

Morning. youtu.be/Fg-KkdzaOVc?...

I am watching a film.

I just tutted really loudly and rolled my eyes at a super-tedious white reply-guy post I saw on here. The fact that it was me that wrote it stings like fcuk. (Deleted it, obvs)

There will never be a point in time where I am not pleased to hear Dirty Water by The Standells. youtu.be/5apEctKwiD8?...

No thank you, fifteen is my limit on schnitzengruben.

Just had that first “when is payday” thought of the month…

Hey BBC, I’m pretty sure Canada IS real.
