Just read Solace House. Was very disappointed in parts especially when it hinged so much on this image by Richard Dadd - The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke. I think it missed the point. Still it kept me occupied for a few hours. #booksky

Really missing my dad today, it would have been his 85th birthday. I cared for him in his last few months, and we lost him in March. He was cheeky, funny and grumpy as hell and I miss all of that. Trying hard not to feel sad today.

Yesterday l discovered that there was a sitcom called ‘Heil Honey I’m Home’. They filmed all 8 episodes in 1990 - surprisingly only one episode aired. The premise was a suburban sitcom but the protagonists were Hitler and Braun; who disliked their Jewish neighbours.

Talk Talk’s ‘The Colour Of Spring’ came out 40 years ago today. 🦋 Here’s the band performing “Life’s What You Make It” on ‘Top Of The Pops’ a few weeks before the album’s release.

I must love my dad. I’ve been vegan for 12 years, vegetarian for 40 and in the past two days I’ve made him an omelette and a ham sandwich. I won’t deny; it was bloody horrible, but he’s my dad in palliative care. I can’t deny him what he wants.

Went down an @archive.org rabbit hole last night and found the perfect Christmas gifts. Hang them on the Christmas tree, smoke them with Santa or get a Bellhop to deliver them to you. “ You know what I got for Christmas? … I got a carton of cigarettes. The old man … said, "Hey, smoke up Johnny."

Enjoying a cup of (vegan) mead, with my cousin, by the ancient oak tree after listening to some beautiful singing. I needed this today; reconnecting with nature has allowed me to start working through my anticipatory grief. #wintersolstice #gippeswyck #ipswich

Hail Yule. Beautiful morning spent with my cousins and the Gippeswyck Gathering; celebrating the return of the sun on the Winter Solstice. Then onto the Ancient Oak Tree. #wintersolstice #gippeswyck #ipswich #suffolk

Right - I’m going to be honest - and personal. Christmas is a terrible time of year for me. 2 years ago we lost my mum and my brother-in-law. Last year I lost my cat (my girl). This year my father is in palliative care on oxygen downstairs. I can’t feel anything right now. Sorry for being a grinch

One of the great things about my podcast (for me) is that I get to tell my comedy heroes how much they mean to me. This man was of course rated highly for his amazing work and yet still somehow underrated. So many great films including (for me) the greatest film of all time. RIP Rob and Michele.

RIP Rob Reiner and his wife. Visionary and legendary director of so many iconic films, including the game-changing comedy Spinal Tap. Just two years ago he was on RHLSTP with @herring1967.bsky.social shows.acast.com/rhlstp/episo...

On another #renmakesmusic note - I started this pointillism drawing of him when I was laid up in bed with my injuries. On Procreate - it’s now developing a lot more with swirly/whirly bits but I’ll share that when I’m happier with it. #artsky
