Had to unfollow the ‘What a Fucking Record’ account - unbelievably lame taste - The Lighthouse family - really? And .. David Grey? 🤣 oh dear. They should rename it Heart FM

One of my dream women and I don’t even like Rugby

So I found out they have made a sculpture of me in gold.

Thanks! Think there’s some odd anomaly’s in my own family so will be interesting to see what transpires

Rallen @rallen78.bsky.social · 23h

I’m interested doing mine, may I ask which one you use/recomend?

Rallen @rallen78.bsky.social · 1d

Or their own actions. That never gets mentioned.

He’s from Durham and the tosser he’s replying to is as well. So depressing

Where do you find these morons.

But isn’t this what you would expect of young republicans? The weird thing would be if they weren’t racist misogynists. Is this even news?

I found the poster. And year, his profile explains it all. Imagine deploying identity politics to see if you should read William Shakespeare or Louise Bagshaw

Damning hate it when the user name is obscured so you can’t chip in and discuss!

But going back to the OP. isn’t it women who overwhelmingly read literature these days? And people working in publishing is disproportionately female?

Nah Pamela was about 20years after I think

Rallen @rallen78.bsky.social · 1d

Didn’t Defo write what’s regarded as the first novel?

Rallen @rallen78.bsky.social · 1d

Got so much reading to do, so naturally I’ve been trying on my suits to see how dapper I can be. Bugger.

How many birds do you have?

I think teaching needs an overhaul for
Modern life, who needs a set square or a compass? Teach critical thinking and skills we need. Why did we have to learn geometry or geography instead of relationships, & media literacy

James do you think the Scottish Government issued the guidance in bad faith to start with? to use it to stress the constitution for Independence reasons

Remind me slightly of Tyrell’s glasses in Blade Runner just before Batty kills him.

Rallen @rallen78.bsky.social · 1d

Wonder where those glasses are now

Not sure what’s happened with Twitter. We all know the promotion of right wing algorithms etc but for the last week all I’ve seen is pro Trans stuff and pro Green Party stuff. Hardly any right wing stuff. Has something changed? It’s weird to see how different the feed is.

Tempted by an enchanted forest one!

Yeah they don’t take much material as they are for book shelves so small and most of it is the design which you excel at!

Rallen @rallen78.bsky.social · 2d

Should good fun to do and the lights are easy

Rallen @rallen78.bsky.social · 2d

Just makes me think of Alan Partridge now when irate farmers dropped a cow on him

There’s so many sets you can do now, I think my next one will be a museum as you get a dinosaur skeleton and fossils for it!
