Been to see Hamnet, my heart is broken. The cinematography is like nothing I’ve seen, every scene, every camera angle just superb

Clearly shouldn’t be on there 😬🧡

Hate Q jumpers

I left that place the day I joined here because it was already going to shit. It was brutal because I lost a lot of DM’s from someone precious who isn’t with us anymore. Stupidly didn’t screenshot any. But I know that person would have left at the same time for the same reasons

Lovely walk ❄️🩵

10 years ❤️

To be honest I really like this song #TOTP

I’m watching a training video and there’s a fish stuck to the filter in the tank behind him. Can’t focus for worrying about the fish. Ironically the training is on childhood trauma 🫣

NewTV, literally 5 weeks old died on Tuesday. Guy came and took it to repair yesterday and told Mr S he’ll have to order parts snd let us know when we’ll get it back. Am I wrong in thinking they should’ve brought us a replacement when it’s that new? John Lewis as well

There was a fluffy black cat in the car park and I A) Wanted it B) Hope it wasn’t too cold C)Had a thought that you don’t see many fluffy black cats, aren’t they usually quite sleek? #catponderings

I’ve inadvertently bought a set. Very pleasing

It’s a bit of a stretch folks, but I feel I have a ginger dragon here

Cerys played the original this morning but I really love the Human League version. Electronic goodness youtube.com/watch?v=XtJa...

Last night I slept for 7 hours without waking, probs not done that since my son was born and he’s 30

💫

Here’s some photos I took in 2023 that correspond with more of his paintings. Only notable difference is the cars

While we’re doing snow; Norman Cornish (who lived up the road) painted this scene, which has hardly changed and exists just round the corner from us in Spennymoor

Shiver me timbers 🥶

And now Harry Nilsson, Everybody’s Talking’ an absolute classic

So far there’s been Johnny, The Hollies, The Troggs, Gerry and the Pacemakers, George Hamilton 👌

#TOTP is shite do I’m watching That’s 60s and Johnny Cash is on right now

Lovely cold winter walk 🩵

The New Year bottle recycling boxes of shame have been put out on the estate. Pretty impressive some of them

The sky just now

Don’t ask about my dream, I won’t tell you. I’m frankly appalled by my own mind and not in a good way

That Rollercoaster song by Bewitched, can I hear the theme tune to Double Decker’s? Only the old will understand #TOTP

As New Year approaches, no resolutions; other than to try and be a decent person and be grateful for every single day. In reality, I’m predicting I may make mid January before I have my first existential crisis of the year and get a bit sweary

Polished the obligatory Baileys off, I suppose it’s the modern equivalent of Eggnog. Anyway, I’m merry now and listening to some smashing tunes youtube.com/watch?v=qKYQ...

He enjoyed the 2nd coming (of Christmas) 🧡

Yes?

Mr Smith is recovering well, Christmas was a bit of a washout but I’ve got my best friend and his kids coming today to see what Santa left here. Then my Sister comes tomorrow, so I actually feel more Christmassy than I did at Christmas

Morning from this chonk, reinforcing my decision to do nowt #caturday

First one of you to say happy boxing Boxing Day …

Aaaand I’ve just knocked a whole glass of red over and it’s splattered all down the grey wall and I don’t know whether to be upset about the paint or losing a whole glass of wine. This has not been my best ever Xmas tbh kids

Escaped from the football, watching The Nutcracker upstairs, with wine, like a ruddy grown up

Happy Boxing Day. A day to play with your toys. Painting by Vasily Khudyakov 2022 (Unintentionally pairing with @desdelboy.bsky.social today)

I think Archie is looking for Santa. Happy Christmas to all you lovely people who have tolerated my nonsense on here. And those who haven’t ❄️

It’s eerily quiet at the shops, I’m done for today and shall partake in a beverage shortly
