My lovely friend Jaki is featured in this episode of Made in China, a BBC Sounds podcast in which Eva Brookes explores her identity as a transnational adoptee. Its really good. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...
Recommend this highly. Steve playing Daisy Bell on Russian TV from the 90s… so poignant. As someone who lives across cultures I completely relate to how he feels about Russia.

Harry Styles’ new single Aperture totally reminds me of Traffic and Weather by @fountainsofwayne.bsky.social!
The bit that goes “we belong together”- same words, identical melody.

My older daughter’s review of the Gary Numan gig in Bristol has now been published in Epigram, the student paper epigram.org.uk/review-gary-...
It’s the Merchant Ivory/Nyman - Divine Comedy influence thing all over again for me. I love it when things I like come together. It makes so much sense.
Went to see The Last Dinner Party last night and they were incredible. Pleased to find out they’re influenced by Peter Greenaway/Michael Nyman. faroutmagazine.co.uk/the-director...
She also wrote a Factory Floor live review for the Electronic Sound magazine website: www.electronicsound.co.uk/reviews/fact...
Gen Z opinion - my older daughter’s written about the Lily Allen album in the student paper. It’s spot on: epigram.org.uk/tell-me-ever...
Sad to hear Mani has died 😢
Whole fucking thing makes me sick to my stomach. An abject fucking liar, a man who lies as easily as he fucking breathes, threatening an organisation which strives for truthfulness. And plastic patriots like the Mail and Farage urging him on. Jackels.
Beautiful photos! Sadly been standing empty due to RAAC for a few years now ☹️

Why can’t us immigrants just exist? Can we just be neither bad nor good, just live?
I did not know Mont-bell had opened in the UK! I’m not particularly outdoorsy but their stuff would be perfect for the UK weather.
I find it odd that a non-celebrity version of the Traitors is now referred to as a “civilian” version.
When an artist plays a same venue 2 nights in a row and they switch up set lists and the night you didn’t go had your favourite songs 😔

Wishing you a speedy recovery!
It seems like Norwich (at least UEA LCR) is back on the touring route for bands. Which is great. It’s been rubbish for too long (well for me at least)!
This remains an awful and unfair proposal. For one thing, a lot of people genuinely struggle to find time to volunteer, and for another and more importantly, it’s not volunteering if you’re being compelled to do it!
