@richardbranson.bsky.social any chance of sharing so she gets some donations. This lad is off to Uni despite being let down by the system (diagnosed last year with autism and not suspected #dyslexia). They would benefit from a shout out or share. Thanks 🙏
If you’ve a few spare £ please consider donating to my friend. Assessments like #dyslexia should be a right not a privilege 🙏 #neurodivergence www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/dyslexia-a...
Thank you 🙏
Ack. I’m starting to think I imagined it! Thanks anyway!
That’s an amazing album! ❤️
Maybe. Let me take a look. It’s all about jogging the memory these days haha.
Good luck today Canada. I hope The shitmess next door has put you off Poilievre and his populist vision.
Hahahahaha
Def not a club. More a pub but not very pub like. In some of that fab Brum brutalist architecture.
Speak for yourself. I’m WAAAAAAAY younger 😃
Different part of town to Sinatras. It’s a pub you and J used to go to I think but he can’t remember it.
That’s def not the pub I’m thinking of. It was inside or on the edge of one of those round circus like bits where the road went round the top and there were shops inside a pedestrianised oval plaza thingy.
Shit- was the the ship? My brain is all addled. Thought that was elsewhere.

Hey, can any of you #Birmingham folk help me remember the name of an popular #indie pub from around 1989. You had to go upstairs onto an upper level to get in & it might have been two floors. Somewhere around Smallbrook Queensway?There was a great record shop around there too.
Might be. I left Brum years ago and now I can’t recognise a lot of it.
Today I’m mining memories of my #indie days - #Birmingham in the late 80’s, to write about. Oasis market, Plastic Factory, Tempest Records, The Hummingbird, Edwards, Snobs, The Black Horse, Ship Ashore….vintage #NME copies helping me along.

Y’know….ill take that!
Test drove my new hair out in Manchester last night and by the shitmess that today was, I’d say yes, blonds do have more fun!
Hahahahaha
I can’t hear this without thinking of Andie, distraught in Pretty in Pink.
One of them. Depends on my mood.
Ahhh. The New Order days!
Believe it.
Current mood.
I’ve only joined Bluesky recently so am always looking for good people to follow. It’s fab to find people like @authorsmiller.bsky.social who has also created loads of great starter packs.
Things look pretty bleak at the moment but just remember that it’s not all bad out there ❤️
Amazing thanks. This is how we support each other. Miss the good old days on twitter but I’m loving Bluesky ❤️
