Currently UK based. Interested in all the usual vanilla stuff (books, history, board games, politics, the Beatles, 🇪🇺).
Mainly here to look at cool cathedral photos, but perpetually get sidetracked. Bonjedward.
The day nine-year-old me discovered this section of my dad’s bookshelf was pretty transformational.
I’ve lugged them around through many house moves since then.

Great that #ios26 has finally caught up with Windows Aero from Vista in 2006.

It’s a sad evening in this house too. What a treasure trove he left us all with though. I’m currently being consoled by this slab of Briany goodness.

Thank you Brian.
Your music was always there when I needed it ever since I was a child, and your gifts will outlast us all.

One of the few bands you could confidently identify just from their song titles.

The new Stereolab album is the most Stereolab-sounding record Stereolab have ever made.
A triumphant return to recording.

Don’t often share book recommendations here, but this is a brilliant work of gothic adventure in a genre I’m new to.
Cuckoo Song by Frances Hardinge.
Will definitely be seeking out more of her work. 📚

Blimey, this is the most 1975 thing I’ve heard in a long time, but it’s absolutely superb. I think I have a new favourite Macca album.

Followers of @edmorrish.bsky.social outside of a very specific demographic must be utterly baffled right now.

Yes, you’re not alone.
Have you thought about going to Ely for a day trip?
I went there the other day, had a wander around, ate some fish and chips, met some really friendly volunteers in the cathedral, then came home.
It felt like I’d recharged something in my soul.

Which celebrity death broke you?

Jeremy Strong. A huge celebrity in our house.
