A lost soul, looking for a new life. Writer, percussionist, dad and worrier. Probably going to bang on about nature and stuff.
Nice to meet you.

The dog is deeply fascinated by frost and ice. It makes walks last longer, but I've no complaints when it's so beautiful outside.

Off to Uni to attend the first session of my final module. I'm studying for MA in Creative Writing and the focus is Avant Garde poetry.
This is not a comfortable prospect for me, so all good wishes will be gratefully received.

Morning.
I hope today sees you soaring in good cheer and bonhomie to your fellow humans. Or, if not, you do at least have a nice cup of tea available.

My migraine has faded throughout the day, thank goodness, so my friend was able to come round, a welcome chat to a kind and gentle voice. I'm very lucky.

Ten years ago, inspired by the return of my childhood interest in birds, I set myself a target: see 200 British species in a year.
The result was this book.
Through 2026 I’ll be revisiting it, month by month. If you want to join me, just subscribe to my newsletter. levparikian.substack.com

Morning all. I'm feeling a bit woozy and migrainey today. Hopefully, it won't last long as I'm catching up with a friend later.

#TOTP proving that, in 1984, there was only one drum pattern permitted on a hit single. It was probably programmed anyway, but for TV it was a union regulation that a bored drummer mimed along to it, making deliberate errors.

Morning. Today is brought to you by the word 'rain'. There's a lot of it about down our way.
I hope everyone in the path of last night's UK storm were safely battened down.

The dog wants you to know he was feeling rugged this morning. He thrived in the cold and was at his peak canine.

I made a stew for dinner. 2/10, would not recommend. Frankly I'm a bit disappointed in myself...
