Off work caring for my very poorly wife and I’m definitely not a loss to the nursing profession.
I am now self medicating…

Highly paid professionals behaving like spoilt children…

I’m flying the #flag of the Australian 🇦🇺 state of #NewSouthWales at half staff in honour of the victims of the Bondi Junction attack.

#Samson . “Earth Mother.” 1981. Reading Fest. The bootleg is glitchy as heck, but you do at least get enough of a glimpse of Bruce Dickinson to see why 12 months later he’d be fronting Iron Maiden at the same festival — he’s pitch perfect here & his vibrato is still incredible 🎙️

The price of peace in NI has been the absence of justice for so many families.

Pub sign ! Interesting that the pub was established in 1831 and rebuilt in 1924... then in 2022 the neighbours move in and complain about the noise?

Broadside’s iconic imagery and bold flavour have stood the test of time for over 50 years. Launched in 1972, the ship on the branding remains a focal point. The design has been updated and colours enhanced to match the beer's strong character.

This highlights the absurdity of the Blair government’s so called ‘Right to Roam’ in most of England. A great deal of time and money spent for little result. Time and money which could have been much better spent on the existing public rights of way network.

I’m flying the flag of the #UnitedKingdom 🇬🇧 for its #FlagDay .
On this date in 1606 the original Union Flag (also known as the Union Jack) was adopted by HM King James VI & I to represent his joint kingdoms of Scotland & England as ‘Great Britain’.

Happy 36th Birthday to Iron Maiden’s Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son 🎉 Favourite album, without a doubt 👏🏼💥 I learnt to play drums solely to the Maiden England VHS 🙏🏼 Dave Shack #ironmaiden #seventhson #maidenmoment #allkillernofiller

Fun map! Apart from the long awaited return of the Kingdom of Sussex I notice that East Anglia claims the Ionian Islands…

This Week! #AdamFaith is BUDGIE (1971-72). Every Saturday beginning Saturday 13th April at 8pm on #TalkingPicturesTV with #IainCuthbertson #GeorginaHale

I listened to the 2015 release ‘Trespass’ by Trespass today after a recommendation from my son George.
What a totally enjoyable album!

Great episode about the London metal scene. I especially enjoyed the chat about Green Lung, will never tire of hearing about this exciting band. Look forward to the day I get to see them live.

I’m flying the #flag of the #Philippines 🇵🇭 for the Day of Valour (aka Bataan Day).
It commemorates the ending of the brave defence of Bataan by Filipino & US forces on this date in 1942, during the Japanese invasion of the Philippines.

My only stage performances took place in a hall like this…

Another gorgeous Coopers Brewery 🇦🇺 beer tonight. Despite plenty of competition from new craft breweries, the 5.8% ABV Sparkling Ale remains one of Australia’s best beers, if not the best!🍻👍
