Good morning BlueSkyers.
Looking a quieter Monday morning than usual. Looks like a lot of people not travelling. Train station and roads empty. Makes for a far more pleasant commute.

Avatar Fire & Ash in full Imax 3D.
A case of style over substance with these movies. I'm not a fan but the lad loves them
Overlong (they could cut 30 mins easy) & a pretty repetitive story line. But Imax 3D is pretty impressive. 3D's come a long way from the days of red & blue paper glasses

AI music is now flooding streaming services. It's getting on my fucking tits. I have no time for it. My time is given to those bands & artists that are real, that work hard to build a fanbase, that tour & release real music.
Not some stiff in a studio somewhere pumping out generic rubbish. #FuckAI

Well that was a very wet & windy one for last night's cycle commute home. Pretty grim.
In contrast to today which is predicted to be blue skies and sun.

A little bit milder, but cloudy for this mornings cycle commute. Makes the ride a little bit more comfortable.

There.. I've said it..
I really like the new track 'Atlas' from Guns N' Roses.
The other released track 'Nuthin' ain't bad either.
Unapologetic me.

It's a much nicer day today here on the Med. Yesterday's cold, rain, and wind was one of those pretty grim days for a cycle commute. Character building as the saying goes.
