Thanks, big man.

Ce soir!

I’m very sad to hear of the death of Steve Cheyne of Berkeley studios in Glasgow.

Steve has been part of the FF story since our earliest rehearsals. He was a good guy, supportive with a fine dry sense of humour. He’ll be missed by us and a huge number of Glaswegian musicians.

Tonight at 17:00 if you fancy coming to see this rarely shown classic with an incredible soundtrack in the cinema.

17:00 tomorrow.

Come down.

It’s an amazing film.

Our film night is back on Sunday with Franz Ferdinand's Alex Kapranos as our guest at Hackney Picturehouse!

He will be showing the 1972 classic The Harder They Come preceded by a Q&A with host Paul Richards. Final tickets are now on sale.

Very happy to be taking part in this amazing event. The Harder They Come is an amazing film, unique visually and in time, feel and of course with an ASTONISHING soundtrack. Come down. It’ll be wonderful.

Wow Eurostar EurostarUK.

Train was an hour late.

Stopped after the tunnel.

Told we’re not allowed to use the track.

Now going back to London.

No information. Staff as puzzled as the passengers. Poor woman next to me had a full on panic attack.

For reasons I will never understand, when I was a first year at uni, a middle-aged Doctor from Gaza moved temporarily into the room opposite mine in halls.

We weren't sure what to make of our new neighbour. But after a day, I decided to knock on his door and say hello... 1/🧵

Congratulations to everyone who made the shortlist this year. What a great selection from Scotland again.

These are very good

Please help Sunny G. They need to get transmitting again.

I know this seems obvious to say, but I am never going to send you messages asking for money.
