Awesome! 🖤🙌

It definitely is!

Goodness that is a dreadful thing to have happen! Nothing like that here, just buying mainly CDs from late 80s, then left my vinyl collection when I emigrated. A few were returned to me last yr & a new Cure album was released - both events inspiring me to begin collecting again, and I’m loving it.

The Bromeswell Bucket episodes have been excellent watches, I really recommend them if you haven’t got to them yet.

I also remember seeing the shuttle (and Boeing of course) go over our house when it came to London. We were not too far from Stansted, I was oblivious but happened to look up at the right moment.

Plan to see the Mary Rose next time we are in the UK. Thanks for the TT heads up - love that show.

A copy of a vinyl LP playing on a turntable. The record has the cover propped in the lid of the player. It is Juju, by Siouxsie & The Banshees.

A little over a year with a record player in the house again & rebuilding my collection pretty much from scratch. Finding my records in the wild rather than online, & stoked to find this good clean copy of Juju at the Birkenhead record fair in Auckland at the weekend.

Yes, I remember the tv being wheeled in to the classroom for both of those events.

Home from a happy few days in Auckland. A great night dancing to ‘80’s X’ covers band at the Whammy Bar 💃 Found a record fair and got some treats 🎶 Fun BYO 7” night at the Northern Line 🎶 My cup is full 🩶

Lots of Hats or All The Moves 🕺

An aerial view of the Rakaia, a braided river flowing through the Canterbury plains of Aotearoa New Zealand. The glacial-blue river threads through irrigated farmland, weaving through sediment to form a braided effect (when not in flood).

Flew to Auckland today. Window seat views of the Rakaia braided river were an absolute treat.

Same. They were my first live band.

I’m playing the album right now, love it.

Excellent track!

Son is playing bass downstairs and I just heard him veer off from Tool into Lovesong and then back to Tool.

RAH is bucket list venue for me, but not entirely sure I could make it work. Like lots of us I’m hanging for a world tour, but 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thanks 😀

Be brave! In my experience a visitor showing interest can be met with genuine enthusiasm, and that can lead naturally to a bit of a play.

Me too, it’s just delicious!
