Yep, I do that!

That is absolutely beautiful Ian, well done, you must be very proud of it. 👏

Did you get off safely?

I loved my radio as a kid. I remember listening to it in bed with my mono earpiece & my thumbnail in the tuning dial trying to keep in tune.

Boxing day swim at Marine Lake West Kirby Wirral this morning. My daughter Sam & husband Matt amongst them somewhere! #Westkirby #Wirral

Yep, that’s exactly how I remember my wellies, and the sore legs where they used to rub!

Maybe they think you are actually the Chancellor Nerine!😉

Still time to get a copy of this true story of courage, drama & heroism to read after lunch on Christmas Day!
#AgentZo was the only woman to parachute fm GB to German occupied Poland during the #SWW, where, hunted by the Gestapo, she fought in the largest organised act of resistance…

Congratulations Clare, well deserved.

Ooh, so many to choose from but a particular favourite of mine is 19th nervous breakdown.

YouTube video by Mike Batt WINTER SONG Mike Batt (Feat: Paul Carrack)

Here's a "Storyboard/lyric video" of WINTER SONG (Mike Batt, Feat: Paul Carrack). Hope you like it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlod...

That’s a great song Mike & beautifully arranged too, & with Paul Carrack’s velvet voice, a perfect fit.

If Laura Kuenssberg ever throws a sickie Nerine!!! Just sayin!

YouTube video by RocknRoll Videos The Gene Vincent Files #8: Chas Hodges reminiscing the times he toured with Gene and The Outlaws.

Just watched a great interview with Chas Hodges talking about Gene Vincent on Rock n Roll videos on youtube. Well worth a watch & some great names from the past mentioned too. I’m sure @kategarnermusic.bsky.social will have seen it but if not!

That looks great Ian, I bet he was pleased with it too!

No apologies needed Mike, it was from Amazon.The only reason I had to wait was because my wife bought it for my birthday. I wanted it earlier but she’d already ordered it.

The wait is over Mike, You no longer have to starve! Looking forward to this, I’ve waited long enough!

I remember his party piece playing out of tune! He did it so well, I would imagine it’s not as easy as it might seem to still make the tune recognisable.

A little time lapse of my daughter painting an owl, not complete but you get the idea!

He’s a talented guy Clare! I bet you love it, I like the pencil in your hair!

By the way, my book "The Closest Thing To Crazy" is still out...I just thought while you are at Amazon getting the Wombles GOLDEN album containing Wombling Merry Christmas, you could get the book at the same time. Save petrol. Only thinking of you. 😘

Thanks for that Mike much appreciated. Couple of weeks till I get the book. Can’t wait!

Looking forward to reading it Mike but have to wait until my Birthday as it’s been bought! By the way, how did the name “Womble”s come about? Or is it in the book!

My first reply on bluesky! Congratulations Clare & get well soon.
