Hello lovely people. Extra busy at the moment helping my dad with magic business stuff as he closes his shop and ramps up his publishing company. Sad to see the shop go. It’s a fab place. Ah well.

Aw. Sad news. Bromsgrove south just lost their Reform council in a by-election. It’s Lib Dem now since the guy never turned up for sessions and resigned, presumably after being overwhelmed by the demands of the job - y’know, dressing yourself, joined up writing, big sums…
Happy Friday!

I just yawned and it made a sound like Godzilla roaring and I don’t think my day will get any better than that. Happy Thursday!

Looking nice and autumnal out of my bedroom window. Was thinking about raking some leaves up but then I remembered that the outside is cold and there’s no wifi... Happy Wednesday!

Good morning lovely people! After a week of technical issues I now have a small backlog of bits to finish… send coffee, treats, extra fingers etc.

It’s Friday, ten fifteen (crackerjack…) and I have a day off. Should use it wisely (gardening, tidying, paperwork) but I’m going to play video games and drink tea and fuss my cats instead. Happy Friday, lovely people!

How have I pulled a muscle in my sleep? Is this what happens when you get all old and creaky? Bugger… Happy Wednesday, lovely people!

Morning lovely people! The last dregs of the long lurgy has finally gone, just in time for a new client meeting today. Here’s a shot my friend sent me of the cathedral looking all autumnal. Happy Monday!

Morning lovely people! I’m still full of lurgy… so I’m having one more day off to sit in bed and watch the leaves turn orange. Happy whatever day this is! 🤪

My sister, who’s had a rough time recently, has a new kitten! This is Peter, a rescue. Like most tuxedo cats, he’s very friendly and playful and soppy. They formed an instant bond and he’s made such a difference in just a few days.

The sun is out and I’ve got a day off! I’m going to actually leave the building and go find something fun to do.
Hope everyone has a nice easy Monday.

Morning lovely people. Another busy week ahead. My dad has asked me to help put a book together of his African diaries. Hs recent stroke has made computer stuff tricky. It’ll be fascinating. And long… and I may be around here less…

Well, the end of a busy week has finally arrived! And I’ve spent at least ten minutes of it giggling at this. Happy Friday, lovely people.

Taken from our most recent EP, Matter Transfer leans a bit prog. Vocally I was aiming for Alice in Chains x Pink Floyd(ish). This lovely lyric video/ visualiser was made by @hotdonkeymike.bsky.social

Happy Friday lovely people! It’s my birthday on Monday so I’m buggering off for a few days. No particular plans other than avoiding the world and all the noise for a bit…
See you on the other side! 😘🥂
