It's cool enough out that today's kit sees the return of a waistcoat!

Have you been half asleep, and have you heard voices?
I've heard them calling my name.
Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors?
The voice might be one and the same.
I've heard it too many times to ignore it
It's something that I'm supposed to be

Now he's in control, he is my lover
Nations stand against him, he's your brother
Been a long time, been a long time now
I'll get to you somehow

Yeah, but being broken is more of a bruise than it is a tattoo.
Give it, and yourself, more time.

"...some days you are a force for evil...."

That's all I've ever wanted.

She's a craze you'd endorse,
She's a powerful force
You're obliged to conform when there's no other course
She used to look good to me, but now I find her....
Simply irresistible!
(She's so fine, there's no tellin' where the money went)

Excellent taste! I have a few pairs of old Irish coin cufflinks.

Graham A. Yeates @grahamyeates.bsky.social · 4d

The blue ones are lovely. And are those enamelled coins I see, two to the right of the blues?
