The venue stage, lit in red and blue with a silhouette of people's heads in the front and a radiating Cardiacs banner at the back, the angle is slightly from the right side looking left. Onstage from left is a feint figure of Kavus Torabi, then Chloe Herington, then Jim Smith, then a little of Bob Leith on drums and Mike Vennart. Bob and Mike are wearing sashes. Mike has a left-handed guitar with a very pointy headstock.

I knew Jennifer, we had briefly been flatmates.

I had no idea this had happened to her (although I knew she had died). It's utterly sickening.

Jennifer was a sweet woman and she needed help.

@mjowen174.bsky.social Happy birthday Matt! I wasn't able to reply to your slippers and Horlicks post, but I'd just like to say that rocks, fella.

Good morning, here’s a little photo collage of details taken from a variety of my embroideries for you today. Hope it’s the pop of colour you may need… πŸ˜‰πŸͺ‘🌿🌺 #stitchedart #embroideryartist #thesewingsongbird

This local Wolfdog joined an Olympic ski event and triggered the finish-line camera. This is Nazgul. He snuck into a cross-country skiing sprint this morning and raced the homestretch with some competitors before being escorted home. 14/10 someone get him a medal

I have read the book and seen at least three screen versions, but this was the first version of Wuthering Heights I saw, and so it's the one I always think of whenever it's mentioned.

In the same way that masked cowardly militia played the role of judge, jury, & executioner, terrorizing Black communities β€” that terror is now coming everywhere in the form of ICE.

This rogue agency must be abolished & we must end qualified immunity to hold agents accountable.

Managed to get my first cycling #cakeclub of the year in today, 25 miles and a cinnamon bun at Pickleberrys. They were busy - I had to go upstairs.

Nice pups there, Paul. I have an unexpectedly good cafe near my mum in the Dunelm store. They do a superb, huge, tea loaf bun, and the other day it was a caramel ginger cheesecake slice. Yummy!
