What’s the benchmark for completing Blue Prince? Feel like I’ve been playing the game for an embarrassingly long time…

Wicker Man LP cover. Yellow background with giant straw man on it. People wearing deer antlers congregate at its feet.

Back listening to The Wicker Man soundtrack again. Nothing like a bit of creepy folk to brighten up the week. Can’t work out which track is my favourite though.

Sounds From The Other City 2025 Line-Up :: Clashfinder

Failing to plan itinerary for Sounds From The Other City. Thus far spending whole day in Islington Mill struggling to split mine atoms so I can see all the things happening. I love clashfinder but it's also making me sad! clashfinder.com/s/sftoc25/ #SFOTC25 #SFOTC #Salford #LiveMusic

a group of people are sitting in a crowd and one of them is wearing a t-shirt that says " i love you " Alt: Wayne's World film: Wayne and Garth in a rock-concert-crowd pumping fists in the air and smiling.

Do only older people (like me) go to smaller gigs/venues? Am curious as to whether I am just liking music that other oldies seem to like or whether younger people are gravitating to larger gigs/festivals? I've used a gif because I am OLD. Do you see.

Imagine! Would be so cool. Although, a bit like with my granddad’s false teeth, I’d be a bit frightened of them. Glasses from that era scary anyway!

Something quite cold and odd seeing a person’s belongings all stripped down and separated and catalogued for auction. Imagine if this happened to everyone when they passed away. Who wants my old slippers.

The New Oxford Cinema in Manchester in the early-70s, a long time before dedicated multiplexes reached the UK - featuring a horror-thriller double bill. It was then one of three Rank owned-and-operated movie houses serving the city centre, the others being The Odeon and The Gaumont

I was thinking, his name reminds me of Hitler and so if I had been his teacher telling him off, I’d say who do you think you are kidding Mr Littler and think myself quite amusing. But I didn’t want to put that. :)

I’ve become addicted to processed spicy fried bean curd snacks from the Chinese supermarket. Must be so bad for me. But so tastaaaay.
