As a Patreon, I’d want to hear your ‘Behind the Scenes’ series on STID - warts and all.

Some late evening coding and a new update to my Streamlets app submitted to the App Store.

I’m pleased to now include Icecast support (now playing information for supported radio stations), along with a few other nice little improvements.

The Colour of Spring by Talk Talk on Apple Music Album · 1986 · 8 Songs

The Colour of Spring by Talk Talk was released this week … 40 years ago!

I still recall purchasing it on cassette.

Happy birthday to an all time classic from a sadly missed band.

I also feel incredibly old. #music

If you have BBC/iplayer, please do watch Small Prophets immediately. Six half-hour episodes, funny, sweet, weird and brilliantly acted.

I couldn’t agree more, I’ve just finished the sixth episode. Gorgeous production, lovely story and beautifully British.

This is a fantastic and fascinating listen with John Carter Cash this morning. 🙏

Incredible stats 🔴⚪️

That’s a very good first half performance. As poor as Burnley have been, our players look sharp and full of confidence.

Diarra has been really impressive, nice to see him back and offering something different.

More Tees… yet another major porkie exposed, as the taxpayer coughs up for a £113m quay that Lord Houchen said local businessmen (making £100ms from land deals it brings) were paying for. Full story in current @privateeyenews.bsky.social

Sunshine and waves on the coastline

Last day of January and what a beautiful sunny day along the coast of North East England.

Beautiful. I’d really welcome an iOS iteration, iPhone is in desperate need of a quality client too.

This video is now banned for US users on Tik Tok.

The platform has fallen to the regime.

And this is EXACTLY the kind of footage they DON’T want US citizens to see.

Couldn’t agree more.

Definitely a TrueGrip. Enhancing the AirPods Pro 3rd Generation A personal review of the Comply TrueGrip™ MAX with AirPods Pro 3rd Generation. A worthy upgrade.

Two of my NY resolutions ticked off in January. ✔️

1) Revive my website
2) Start writing again

Here’s my first post of the year, a review of the Comply TrueGrip MAX that have enhanced my AirPods Pro 3rd Gen’s quite significantly.

(I’ve also implemented BlueSky comments on the site).

Into the 2nd half and I’m persevering but in all honesty, we lost this match before kick off.

Illogical lineup and the loss of Xhaka just shows how influential he has been for us this season.

I’m really quite taken with !camera.

Enjoyed getting in to the October spirit with this tonight.

The telephoto lens has always been my ‘go to’ lens on iPhone so I was really looking forward to upgrading to the 17 Pro.

I’m not disappointed after taking it out for the first time today.

The iPhone 17 Pro may be out in the wild but I’m still rocking the 15 Pro on my travels (for now).

🤣

That’s been a well organised first half display. Xhaka really makes the difference for us, class and experience we need, Hume and Rigg on the other hand have struggled at times.

Great lead to take in to HT but let’s not underestimate Forest second half, still lots to do.

It’s nice to finally switch off, travel Europe and trust that my iPhone will deliver when I need it to.

I’m happy with this one.

So The Maccabees have won #Glastonbury then.

Love these guys.

Beautifully done episode of #TheLastofUs.

I was never looking forward to reliving this particular part of the story, pleased it’s over, but I am enjoying reading reactions from those who never played the game.

I did the same recently, driven by the fact they now support lossless audio.

AirPods Max 𝐚𝐫𝐞 better sounding than the Pro’s but the Pro’s are way more versatile.

We’re fortunate we can have both. :)

Spending early Easter Sunday listening to a most appropriate gem.

When originally released I bought this on cassette, I was 15, it felt too ‘grown up’ for me but soon become something I treasure, an album of pure beauty.
