The powers that be let me produce another ‪@trapone.bsky.social‬ episode! Thanks to @sihart.bsky.social for recording, @quiteamess.bsky.social for editing and @hannahcooper.bsky.social for important research. We loved the @bigfinish.bsky.social K-9 & Company sequel that gets it tone just right!

The emoji search for “old” is a little bleak

An iPhone emoji search for “old” shows a telephone handset, push button phone, pager, floppy disc, VHS tape and a fax machine.

Time to listen to this! I was a big fan of That Writer back then, bought the book and taped the TV show off the telly… 🤔

Yeah it's lovely but quite overcast today.

Is this episode of Neighbours 1987 sponsored by knitwear that needs to be teamed up with sunglasses to cope with the bright patterns?

Written for an Australian audience but much of it applies to birders everywhere, although as a tribe we don’t all reach the lofty heights described 🙂

Here’s to the birdwatchers! Optimistic, slightly eccentric custodians of wonder and joy and passion and love

At its heart, birdwatching is an act of quiet rebellion, says Natalie Kyriacou. It is the gentle act of noticing – the willingness to see the world around you

Oh yes, that "What If...?" article from DWM back in the day was a brain-pleaser and brain-acher! (Listening to this great podcast now)

Dylan @ Doctor Who: Too Hot For Tv @toohot4tv.bsky.social · 2d

On the latest #DoctorWho Too Hot For TV I am joined by Liam to look at what could have been for seasons 27 and 28 and the lost story 'Alixion' from Big Finish.

Currently enjoying the chat about mushrooms, nursing and brains in jars. The fun panel line-ups are what make @trapone.bsky.social an entertaining listen!

Time for some Neighbours 1987: Harold has found out that Mrs Mangel’s tea leaf reading that he was some king of Satyr (half man half beast) was responsible for Eileen’s rumour spreading, along with Madge winding her up. Makes a nice change from more Scott & Charlene on/off old tat.
