Come away in out the cold, sit down and warm yourself by this roaring candle, and please tell us all – what have you been reading / listening/ watching / diverting yourself from the abyss with this month ?

Gather round the firepit, help yourself to a drink from the flasks – or the coldbox if you prefer – then please tell everyone : what have you been listening to, watching, reading, playing, seeing, exploring, whatever ?

Well, you’ll have had your summer! As we move into November’s rain, please gather round and share your recent entertainment finds

Roll up, roll up! It’s May! Here in Glasgow in recent weeks we have had false spring, summer, November again, and can-you-really-trust-that-this-is-spring-this-time. Rain is currently battering down.

So I am staying indoors listening to records and reading books – the garden can wait.

What have you all been listening to, reading, watching, or otherwise using to divert yourselves from THE STATE OF IT ALL ?

SPRING IS HERE! FINALLY!!!

So, please gather round and share what you have been listening to, reading, watching, or otherwise using to distract yourself from everything

FINALLY!! After eleven dreary, frozen, uphill weeks, JANUARY 2025 is OVER!!

So, please, gather round and share with us – what have you been listening, watching, reading, or otherwise getting up to ?

Come away in, please leave your wet boots on the newspapers there, take off your oilskins and hang them on the drying rack, then help yourself to a cup of soup and sit by the fire to tell us – where the hell has summer gone ? And, what have you been listening to, watching, reading, or otherwise distracting yourself with since we last caught up?

Cautiously, I think we can agree that we are not entering Literally Spring – the daffodils have been and gone, the bluebells are out, and there is more than a rustle in the hedgerow.

So, gather round the picnic table, help yourself to some cider or some apple juice – it’s a little too early in the day for Calvados but that will be along soon enough – grab a bite to eat from the hamper and please tell us : what have you been up to this month ? And is there anything coming up we should be aware of ?

It is the first Friday of a new month, so, by the powers vested in me by the Old Gods and the New Gods, I welcome you all to step forward and share what you have been listening to, reading, watching, and anything else you have been using to help you through Dry Veganuary

It is the first Friday of a new month, a New Year, so please come in, help yourself to the leftover cheeses and oatcakes, pour a glass of whatever you like (we always seem to have port left over, or there’s sparkling water, too).

Please tell us – what have you been listening to, reading, watching, and – have you made any resolutions for the year ahead?

All best wishes to everyone for a better and brighter 2024

It is the day before the first Friday of a new month, and I may not be online on Friday, so – please gather round, hang up your wet coats and hats, help yourself to a cup of something warming and tell us all – what have you been listening to / watching / reading this month, and is there anything coming up we should know about ?

It is the first Friday of a new month, so we all know what we need to do.

Come away in, help yourself to a glass of something refreshing, warm yourself by this roaring candle and tell everyone – what have you been reading, watching, listening to this month? and is there anything else you would like to share?
