One more celebratory post from me. Aren’t we the lucky ones. #bobdylan #happybirthday
My favourite song …
Another book recommendation. #Underland by #RobertMacfarlane. Incredible journeys under the earth’s surface. Communicating tree roots & fungal networks, caves, catacombs, cities beneath cities, meltwater, glacial moulins, underground rivers. Maybe avoid if claustrophobic #BookSky #books
and soon it will be 🐓 🥚 ….

Q7. Unlike any other book I’ve read. Amazing
Part biography, history, science, & also the interconnectedness of things.

Flanagan covers HG Wells, War of the Worlds, Einstein, WW2, POW camps, Tasmania, colonialism & more, going full circle & blending in how it all relates to his own existence.

Random notes by Tom Cox. Whimsical, funny. Favourite line that I can totally relate to (& pleasingly show my wife):

“Everyone has their own individual sneeze & it's very important to be comfortable with that. Never try to sneeze like somebody else. It will totally fuck you up”

A deep dive into a favourite Dylan song. Markhorst’s analyses always insightful & enjoyable. Makes me seek out & listen to the live recordings & other connected songs he refers to.

New vegetation on Kangaroo Island rising like a phoenix from the ashes. Some of the plant species absolutely rely on fires to release their podded seeds. It’s a beautiful landscape out here.

The stark, skeletal remains of the scorched trees on Kangaroo Island, burnt in the 2019/2020 fires, look amazing. In many areas they are heavily surrounded by new, dense, green vegetation.

I also worked out (time difference included) that he was probably in the studio recording Leopard Skin Pillbox Hat when I was busy being born.
I’ve been doing this for years but I’ve called it “what was Bob doing when he was my age?”

New horrifying game to play: "what album had Bob Dylan got to by my age"

I’m at Things Have Changed - almost at “Love & Theft”. Peak Bob!

" sure, sex is great, but have you ever cracked open a new notebook and written something on the first page with a really nice pen?".

Lovely line in The Notebook by @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social .
Next up I need to read about his thoughts regarding Street-Legal
A nice surprise in the mail today! It’s a Dutch postcard I can use as a bookmark when reading the highly enjoyable books by @jochenmarkhorst.bsky.social

Snail mail is sure slow. Almost 4 weeks in transit to reach me down under.

I lost you awhile ago
But still I don't know why
I can't say your name
Without a crow flying by
Gotta watch my back now
That you turned me around
Got me walking backwards
Into my hometown
