Tonight!
Come and dance like you're broken-hearted at the school disco, 'cause Darren's playing tonsil tennis with Jackie in a darkened corner.

This Saturday!

Get your fromage-tastic 80s lurve groove on ❤️

That would be 'girls', ITV News, or 'children', if you prefer. I certainly do.

"You gotta be cheerful-hearted
There's at least 15 ways to leave your man
Get a flat and a magazine
Get your body ahead and out of that scene"

TODAY! What better way to spend a wet Sunday afternoon than listening to an eclectic mix of music? The wonderful thing about BYO Vinyl is that I never know what I'm going to play - and I always discover new music.
Bring along records 2-6pm to Clash at the Dartington Cider Press centre.

Who's bringing their own vinyl along to Clash in Dartington, Devon this coming Sunday...?

I'm doing a play-your-record-collection-in-its-entirety challenge. It's already taken weeks!
This week, I've been on F and The Fall! Have got through 8 LPs & 9x12"s so far. I surprised myself by flinging myself around the room to this the most:

Bought a jumper from ASDA yesterday, and spent the evening embellishing it.
It's not perfect, but I'm happy with it 🙂

I am currently going through a play-your-entire-record-collection-in-order challenge (with certain caveats). I have to say that The Adult Net were criminally underrated.
Yes, I am on Letter A 🤣

I ran a bring-your-own vinyl afternoon last Sunday. Somebody brought this along. It goes without saying that they were my favourite person in the room.

Not to be outdone by Duran Duran, Bananarama & Erasure, the goddess that is Annie Lennox has now set off on her epic journey from Scotland to Things Happen Here in Devon for tomorrow's 80s Night. 8-11pm.

My daughter started an Art Foundation course this week. You would thinkparticipants would be fully engaged in popular culture. But - she was chatting to another young person, and they'd never heard of The Smiths or Joy Division. How is this even possible?!

My lad and I will provide the indie soundtrack for your drinking pleasure this afternoon from 4pm.
Things Happen Here, Dartington, Devon.
Still filling those boxes, so send me a song request!

My son and I will be providing the chilled-out indie soundtrack to your drinking this Saturday evening at Things Happen Here, Dartington, Devon. 4-8pm. And it's looking sunny! 🤞

Whose as-yet-unwritten #autobiography would you like to read?
My vote goes to James Murphy.

Spotted earlier this week in Newton Abbot library, Devon.
I was in the cafe with my mum and glanced through at the books. 'Surprised' doesn't come close!

Charity shop workers: please don't do this.
It will haunt my dreams tonight.
