Picked up grandchildren from school this week as parents were busy(girl 6 boy 5) Sat at dining table with them and daughter when she got back for a catch up Boy says “Fucking hell” We all ignore till the third one and daughter tells him he can’t say that He responds “but I like saying fucking hell!”

What a great set opener, so powerful. youtu.be/SDyR8Dc2Xhc?...

Well, Dolly has departed and I wish her Bon voyage on her next journey. What an icon, such an achievement from her humble background to the world stage. On top of her songwriting abilities and charities she was down to earth joking about her wigs and body shape. No ego just talent

Another mini heatwave, and partial eclipse tonight. Hopefully next week we start to get some rain, as it’s due!

Another heat wave coming along, I swear since leaving work the world has caught fire!

Got this painting back over the fire place, it feels more homely Also stuck Jimi back up on the wall towards the studio, good to have him back!

Always fashionably late to any cover band, and cover bands make the world turn! Even more so when they are one family! Was going to link Winner takes it all but heard this, and damn! Good job The young drummer is a monster of a player going by a metal cover he did youtu.be/28GhYJOOREg?...

School holidays start tomorrow, my back is already twinging at the thought of my little monkeys wanting to jump on my back and ride me around the garden like its a race meeting

Heat wave over, grass cut and all cherries from trees have been eaten by greedy birds. I can see the young black birds are having a little nibble on a few tiny and very sour apples that fell from tree.

Getting used to early retirement, last Friday was my last commute and not missing it! Enjoying my old commute time by sitting on patio and having a coffee watching all the song birds having cherries for breakfast and wood pigeons building their nests.

It’s so ironic that the Lincoln memorial reflecting pool is green, American idiots elected a criminal and its now the shade of Pantone Green Day #Trump

Been rewatching Dead Like Me, and this had me roaring with laughter The writing, timing and acting is superb #deadlikeme youtu.be/fcvI8xmSz0o?...

That fucking awesome TV show Dead Like Me predicted Donald in 2004! youtu.be/ON9_5QEwPFs?... #TRUMP

This dude is so funny

Mama Mia! Another old recording at rehearsals, on the Yamaha recorder again, sm57 on the cabs and Roxy using an old Rhode condenser microphone Guitar is LP as in photo, amp is the switchblade This is basic, learn the structure version recorded just to see what it sounded like #music

Got a couple of old audio clips to post I recently found This one is the lads in the photo not sure what guitar I’m soloing on might be a Strat. Amp is HnK Switchblade Recorded on Yamaha hard disk recorded and sm57’s into cabs #guitar

Might have been 13 or 14 here, forced out into the freezing garden by my parents to measure the snow! My old man rang up their local news station after they said we had a light dusting of snow to let them know they were wrong and could they let people know Paul in Wiltshire has 10 inches!

Good morning everyone on this beautiful sunny but still a little nippy start to the day.

It’s in storage but here is the certificate I have for an old Ibanez Absolutely gorgeous, changes colour hue as you turn and the ebony board looks and plays beautifully

Cleaning out office desk at work and found an old Polaroid, nah don’t be alarmed it’s not one of those! Myself and the one and only Cynthia Rothrock ( China O’Brien )

Always liked this Who song and Sheryl did a great live version Lead guitarist forgot what song he was playing during his solo #Sherylcrow #music youtu.be/XG3Re60iWUY?...

I’m surprised nobody has noticed this but before the Washington assassination attempt Donald wowed the wine guzzling journalists with a spectacular display of cock magic that climaxed with him letting go of the napkin and saluting. Randy from South Park would have been impressed! #Trump

Good lord, another fake Ai band here blending metal, Christ and banjo! Trad wife look on banjo and another looks like she played golf in last of us 2 while soloist has the motley crew look Fucking hell, disclaimer says all instruments were played by musicians youtube.com/shorts/Rz0FH... #aimusic

Good morning everyone, yesterday was a frosty start to the day and I had to leave the car idling to clear the windscreen. This morning I got up and thought you ain’t catching me out again and went out earlier to warm car up. Very cold but no frost, Mother Nature did indeed catch me out!

Sun is out here in the south Uk and it’s a beautiful day hope you are all having a great weekend and remembered it’s Valentine’s Day. If not nip to the garage or the local cemetery and get some flowers

Well apparently it’s national guitar day so here is one I play a lot, at work!

With the latest trump shitting himself incident I looked on YouTube and saw this! If this is real, his nappy leaked all over the white sofa and media ignores it? youtube.com/shorts/WFbNX... #Trump

This is who posts here. On the left with toy gun and friends.

Great version here of can you hear me by Brett Garsed. Love this guys playing and great voice too! #Hendrix #Garsed #music youtu.be/rECcIyRbkSo?...

Hope everyone drunk enough water last night and isn’t nursing a hangover this morning. All the best to you and here we go again, another year!

Merry Christmas to you all.

Great clip of Remi who is on Bluesky ripping through these lines! For those interested in expanding their musical chops he has 4 books to purchase for your kindle device and audio links if required I have all 4, this song all of me is explained in his Etudes book one youtu.be/78y94XHOPzY?...

Some Christmas humor 😂😂😂🎅🏻

It’s coming up to Christmas so it’s that time of the year to see the lovely Kim Wilde absolutely drunk and singing a couple of songs on a train! I loved her as a kid, still think she’s gorgeous today #kimwilde #kidsinamerica youtu.be/3Ij8BpOa-Pg?...

This sounds pretty dangerous to the media and journalists the Whitehouse is targeting on their website! Pure intimidation, putting the journalists in the spotlight and giving his hardcore MAGA thugs a nod to retaliate against them www.whitehouse.gov/mediabias/ #whitehouse

I remember some wise words from my grandfather this morning. “Hey schmuck, come here and learn something” He wasn’t Jewish but this joke sounds like Eddie Murphy playing one! Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day but teach a man to fish and Pete Hegseth will say “kill them all’’ #Hegseth

Good morning or even good evening to everyone here in another time zone, the time travelling citizens getting ready for bed when others are just getting up! Two temporary traffic lights this morning, one a massive hole in main road for gas and another a burnt out shell of a car on main road

My Jackson SL1, serial number shows it was made early in 93 Ontario. Has active mid boost that you use by rolling on the knob to the right of the other traditional volume and tone knobs. The mid boost works as you think it would in making solos stand out more #Guitar #Jacksonguitars

Heard on the radio agent Krasnov’s plans to hand his master Putin chunks of Ukraine. He will never side with Ukraine because him and his criminal cartel are in bed with the mob. He is also is a pathetic vindictive little shit who hates Zelenskyy for not smearing Biden with lies #slavaukraini

Good morning all, bit of a frosty start this morning on the commute to work. Have to say the countryside looks breathtaking with the frost sitting on everything and the early sun rising to slowly thaw it all. Just a shame about all the temporary traffic lights!

Absolute legend! Fight scenes with him are incredible Enjoyed the whole of this season and look forward to next season #thewitcher
