I do a show on Soho Radio and do bits of DJing and Bass playing and do interior renovations for people who have more money than me.

I’ve been listening to Why Can’t I Touch it by the Buzzcocks on repeat. Same thing?

I still miss the Cramps. I just count myself lucky I was able to see them live once.

Change of plan. I’ll be doing the show live in the Soho Radio studio on Thursday the 30th 4-6pm London time with @blackdoldrums.bsky.social as my guests. Which is how it should be all the time really :)

It’s like some kind of Alan Partridge travel-tavern version of The Shining.

Maybe the Panini sticker book in the UK being called Italia 90 helped?

James Meynell @jamesmeynell.bsky.social · Sep 12

I bumped into this little one in southern Italy a few years ago. What a logo though.

I'll never get over Richard Briers being 40, doing a well paid, secure design job, making fun toys, being married to a 29 year old creative, devoted sexpot, living in a large suburban London home with a massive garden and thinking everything is rubbish at the start of A Good Life
