Hi Pen, will you be doing a Liverpool event? fingers crossed. 🤞

Awful and yes .. definitely no uploads of passports - sorry this has overshadowed a decent week (paperback launch) one hand giveth - one hand taketh .. as well known philosophers The 2 Ronnies might say- all the best , hope you get it sorted - great read by the way 👍

If someone creates a fake profile of you on X you should immediately report the account for impersonation via the X Help Center, block the account, and inform your followers to prevent them from being scammed.
You do not need an X account to file a report - very sorry to hear this - good luck

It was ‘over’ by then . The OMD of 86-88 was creative shadow of the 79-85 vintage. Pure pop chart fodder favoured over daring and innovative creations . This song is Pandoras Box mk1 . Formulaic music by numbers . Romance of the Telescope it ain’t .

Having worked at its neighbour (Maritime Museum) many yonks ago, it does infuriate (me) that these projects take a ludicrous and often unjustifiable length of time . They could literally build (heaven forbid) 25 Wetherspoons in the time it takes to refurbish galleries - # deliberate methinks !

The film that took me to Scotland. A Desert Island Disc of a film …

Legendary Everton pub to close as manager says 'it's time' The pub has stood on the same street since the 1880s but will soon be pouring its final pint

@wildtwin.bsky.social www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/whats-on/wha... Thought it may be of interest, Jeff . I know it wasn’t your watering hole … but you could call it ‘your local’ for the first period of your life(?)

Nifty heavy drumming … would sound so powerful ‘live’ . Good shout

The best bit is, he probably got on the 14C at the Gyratory with that! The days when no one gave a second glance to someone who’d been to Rapid Hardware and boarded a bus with a kitchen sink or old style stripey deck chair!!

Marbles . Something about marbles. The gutter, cracked or cobbled roads. The colours inside against a black & white world. ‘Steelies’ and ‘bollies’ . The string bag . Small objects that conjure so many thoughts. You always bring life to inanimate objects in a very comforting way 🙏👏

@psbhq.bsky.social Good luck tomorrow , guys . You make music fun, very interesting and inclusive. You’re a great bunch. Gutted not to be there … no luck with tickets so I’ll be 200 miles north but with you in spirit!👊

Lovely . Even more so considering the significance of the date to you . ( just happens to be my birthday too!!) As much as I love this month, as the leaves fall, the light fades and we wonder will we share another summer with those we hold dear. But there’s joy in solitude. My muse. Myself .

@adellestripe.bsky.social Hi Adelle - not sure if you’ve come across this? A great bi-weekly offering. Be interested in your take on the piece called ‘Subject to Change’ - sounds like it’s Yorkshire territory-from a working class pen (?) www.violetterecords.com/science-and-...

I got there..… ‘Haunted Paper’ @wildtwin.bsky.social 1) a lovely warm welcome from Sonny 2) a deeply personal display of a true Artist’s imagination, inspirations and human fragility 3) The heart splitting sounds of The Blue Nile on the airwaves 4) a thunderous great sky outside … Just Magnifique

Brilliant, many thanks

Hi Jeff , is it a ticketed event.. and is the private view ‘just that’… as in ‘guest list ‘ format? Sorry for the mither

We’re all winners when you dive into ‘Jeff’s World’. You’re completely by his side on the journey. So pleased for him and his family and for all who’ve been immersed in the shadowy alleyways he’s taken us down. Huge congratulations!👏🏻

Wild Twin @wildtwin.bsky.social and its author summed up by books preceding it?!? Perfect symmetry! Chester waterstones

Loved it. Not sure Jeff realises there’s a legion of (his)’fans’ out there who want to just listen to these tales of wet streets, burning embers and old people doing their daily toil. A portrait of a time that acts as a comfort blanket. Keep going sir.

A young father, an athlete in the prime of his life . His instant untimely passing only serves to sharpen one’s awareness

Lime Street (apologies)

I’m in the Futurist or the ABC Line Street looking at the backs of heads , lit by the projection beam. Smoke, stillness, decay but alive ! ( love it , Joe/Jeff- thanks for posting)

Let’s have a PSB cover a Beach Boys song in your own unique style

Just finished ‘Wild Twin’ by @wildtwin.bsky.social I really don’t know where to start or end . You WILL laugh, cry, think, be immersed, transported, need a wash, a lie down, wake in the night & want to carry on reading ..and be sad when it’s over . To be in Jeff’s company is a privilege. Thank you

Listen Mr Wilgoose Esq , in your posting you state ‘we’re not entirely evil’!! 😈 due to extremely unforeseen circumstances, I was unable to be at my laptop at 10am Weds/fri & I’m subsequently experiencing severe ire! I therefore , by order of the fat controller demand a DM and get me 2 tkts, 🙏

Twice in one night? Immediate thoughts are ‘Fawlty Towers’ .. Basil misconstrues the Psychiatrists line of questioning (when talking about exercise … “how often do you manage it? My wife and I can’t see how you manage it all “ an indignant Basil … “well since you ask , at least twice a day”…

Great Night at the Quakers Mtg House for the WoW event 12/05/25. We were all gutted our favourite literary Uncle, Jeff Young, was unwell but the 3 amigos and host provided a really lovely intimate insight into their inspirations and techniques. Could’ve listened for hours . Bravo 🙌 to all involved.

Great night …….enjoyed listening, learnt a lot , So much so, I bought your book . Just finishing Jeff’s ‘Wild Twin’ , so got something (else) to look forward to. Well done, Jake
