I just received 8 identical leaflets asking me to vote Green in May. Not very, erm, green of them.

Just discovered this weekend - queer Glaswegian synth pop from Pleasure Trail. Love an artist who sings in their local accent. Check them out!

In amongst all the sadness of Des’ funeral and memorial on Wednesday, I finally got to meet my great-nephew Eddie who also had a card for me. Of course I said yes.

It's now less than a week until the day I am dreading when I say a final goodbye to my soul mate @desdemoor.bsky.social If you could share information about the fundraiser for his funeral costs I will be forever grateful.

British Gas were meant to visit me yesterday between 1pm and 5pm. The engineer rang at 4 to say I was too far away (????) but he’d come to me as his first call of the day this morning. I diligently got up at 7.

Who wants to guess if he’s turned up or not?

@yespaulineeyre.bsky.social I just want to thank you for your story at One Track Minds tonight. Sorry I couldn’t speak to you in person. I was meant to be there with my partner but he died last month. Your dance was so full of joy it made me cry. Thank you for showing me hope 🙏🏻

How technology improves our lives. Number 1 in an occasional series.

Trying to set the printer / scanner up to the new router has taken me about 5 times as long as signing my new tenancy.

I don’t have the energy or patience to do the TV yet.

Mr Harris: “I’m not sure ‘congratulations’ is quite the right word in the circumstances”

Des de Moor died on 7th Feb from undiagnosed brain tumour.

Des worked at The Ramblers, wrote for CAMRA, was a singer-songwriter. He gave me 27 years of love.

I’ve set up a crowdfunder to help funeral costs If you’re able to donate or share I’d be grateful.

Having a dull Sunday? Why not share and spread the word about award winning writer for @camraofficial.bsky.social @desdemoor.bsky.social and the Crowdfunder for his funeral costs?

Every share and donation counts!

Thank you 🙏🏻

Was having coffee with a friend in Waterstones in Greenwich.

A man came up and told us to be quieter.

I’m not proud of myself but he got an ear bashing at a much louder volume than we’d be talking at, with me ending “This isn’t a fucking library you know!”

Oddly he left quickly after that.
