Been freezing here so you might still get a chance to see Bear On Ice ⛸️

YouTube video by Netflix K-Content Lost in Starlight | Official Teaser | Netflix

Big new series on Netflix tonight is this hospital drama called "ER" starring some bloke called George Clooney. Can't see that ever taking off.

What we watched was "Lost In Starlight" - it was sweet & sunshiney & beautifully animated 👍

An old teddy bear in combat gear sitting behind a delightful border terrier licking her own nose, together on a park bench.

Must say that Mabel was very polite when we met up & didn't show any desire to destuff me.

Pop over to YouTube to watch an interview with Merlin Holland, Oscar Wilde's grandson & there's Anthony Delaney as one of the interviewers 😀👍

😀 Taking a break from yet another rogue detective novel for a wee bit of history & "Queer Georgians" by Anthony Delaney - fascinating stuff & very well read by the author too.

*nods* folk do grump about the interknits but where else could an old teddy bear be friends with a bunch of border terriers without risk of a fatal destuffing 😁👍

Mark in the recording booth for Talking Books, with the Talking Books 90 logo in the corner of the image.

Talking Books is 90 years old!

To celebrate, we’ve recorded a special anniversary edition of Pride and Prejudice with an all-star cast – including Scottish actor Mark Bonnar, who lends his voice to the story.

*hugs*

I work with either a Hard Stare or a soft growl.

Madame's been trying to find some new writers to enjoy recently but not been impressed. Even been disappointed by a couple of old favourites.

Wasn't really one specific book but rather one too many unconvincing thrillers.

I'm rather glad she didn't throw me as a substitute.

Madame is currently annoyed you can't throw an audiobook across a room.

We've learned a wee bit about Puerto Rico from Ironmouse over the years so it was grand seeing it being celebrated in such an impressive way. It was a proper big hug of a performance. Just seen a comment describing it as "resistance through joy".

We have just watched Mr Naughty Rabbit's Superb Owl performance. First time we have ever watched anything proper Superb Owl related. It was rather special! Well done, that rabbit 🐇

Madame considering but sadly not well enough to write a novel about a reader who goes on a crazed rampage because they suddenly can't take another book about detectives with relationship issues & random stupidity in intense personal battles with a deranged but genius serial killers.

Feb. 5, 1926: WJAZ of Chicago, which is accused by the federal government of being a pirate station for broadcasting on unassigned frequencies, makes the most of its notoriety. Its staff dress up as buccaneers and sing from an operetta they wrote, “The Pirates.”

Indeed! That would be like falling off many beds. We must keep you safe.

Not too surprised. Have seen very little chat about the actual film but plenty of mockery of young Timothy, who seems to be developing the look of a startled ferret as he scuttles through award season.

Is that the one where Timothy Timotei plays ping pong & has a scruff wee moustache?

Sending hugs! Falling off the bed is the worst.

You’ve got us gripped with this alt text, @rspb.bsky.social 🌕

Happy birthday!

I know that cats & dogs can be friends. Sometimes. But probably not in situations involving excitingly feathery headgear. So maybe cross fascinators off the list just in case 👍

Photograph of a large bear sitting at a picnic bench. He has a cone shaped party hat on his head & a pink birthday cake with many candles in front of him.

Wishing her a very happy birthday!

Was going to say you can't go wrong with a fascinator but... will there be cats at this wedding? Cause then wandering about with bits of feathers flapping about your head could be asking for trouble 🤔

Bears have to get shares in any potential ice cream. It's The Law *legally nods*
