A shot of the side of a staircase with a doorbell, by which I mean the physical bell rather than the exterior push button, and the described switch. At the time of the photograph, the switch was in the “on” position

Cheers!

IT STARTS TONIGHT!

When you accuse someone of farting in a hot tub, that's called a j'acuzzi.

Guess I’d better tell @sillybones.bsky.social the sad news

Amazing:

Hi Bluesky. I'm sure counter examples do exist and I just haven't explored deeply enough but I haven't yet encountered a Petula Clark song that isn't fuckin' amazing. That's all.

I never saw them live, but my favourite-ever urban myth (which no one else recognises, so maybe it was made up by this one guy at a Greenock house party in 1991) is that Lux Interior's day job was being Big Bird in Sesame Street.
