An inauspicious start, but bit of a recovery…

Me today, wee dug on Tuesday! All the birthdays!

A patch of daffodils on a grassy bank in a suburban street, a cocker spaniel walking away beside a lamppost

Dydd Dewi Sant Hapus to all who celebrate (and indeed those who don’t); some daffodils to mark the occasion, which coincides with one of us marking another turn around the sun.

Sunset over a pebble beach where a cocker spaniel is wandering along

Good evening Blueskies! About to leave my fifth decade: tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow; in the meantime, after weeks of rain, a sunset

Acceptable.

Today’s edition of where have the Collective been today? #hireath

Good morning Blueskies! Minimalist amble this morning, but will post some pics from the other end of the journey we are about to set off on; let’s Saturday!

The outside of Manchester Apollo with an electric sign saying “TONIGHT MOGWAI” on the wall

Stuart Branthwaite of Mogwai live on stage at Manchester Apollo, playing a black Telecaster with a white scratch plate, standing in front of his amp which has a Palestine flag on it

Mogwai live on stage at Manchester Apollo, the stage bathed in pink and blue light

Seriously though, that was magnificent. Mogwai Fear Satan and Like Herod, among others. Stuart @plasmatron.bsky.social quite rightly thanked Manchester for rejecting fascism. Dude’s a dude. @mogwai.scot

A close up of an Apple Watch showing a loud environment warning, the screen reads: “loud environment. Sound levels hit 100 dB. Even a few minutes at this level can cause temporary hearing loss. Repeated long-term” the rest of the message is hidden

Well what do you expect, watch? I’m at a @mogwai.scot gig…

A cocker spaniel on the grassy bank of a wide river, a tree covered island in the water and trees along the valley sides, beneath cloudy skies

Good evening Blueskies! On a tram, off for a gig. More on that later. Bit of a grey day, notwithstanding the bright new dawn this morning. Last day at work for a bit, yay! Headed out to Springy for a cheeky amble; grey, as we may have mentioned.
