That bloody book!!

Balls, I’m a day late but a very happy belated birthday to the awesome Robert Sledge for yesterday!

Did you know that #MeansToMe threads has been running for almost a year and a half?!

It came to life in October 2024 and there are STILL songs waiting to get their turn!

Thanks to everyone taking part each week and big love to @crowdedhouse.com for providing us with the songs to talk about ❤️

It’s like this piano is inviting me to play!

Buffalo Tom tour dates 👇

Lunchtime walk, purple trainers and my iPod presented me with the banger ‘Bridge To Your Heart’ by Wax.

Sad Cafe Everyday Hurts 1979 YouTube video by Маша Маня

On my many recent walks I’ve just put my iPod on shuffle and today I was presented with this banger.

A song that is nearly as old as me, but you know, it still sounds so very good. Love it 🔥

Standing waiting for a bus whilst listening to Steely Dan.

I’m so cool 😎

Today’s #MeansToMe thread 🧵is about the Crowded House song ‘You Are The One To Make Me Cry’ from Time On Earth.

Reply to this post with:

* your particular interpretation of it or what it means to you

* what feelings, memories or images it evokes

Today’s song is a random pick!

Someone sent me a work email once saying I was a***

I was raging as I thought they were calling me an arsehole, but apparently they were actually saying I was a star - ⭐️

Shame I replied calling them a cunt… 🤷‍♀️

Probably.

Why is it that when I post a really stupid, tasteless piece of shite on my Instagram story that the famous musician who follows me always watches it?!

Today it was the diarrhoea man from the pepto bismol advert 🙄

Don’t worry, I am not going to be posting every day about my boring walking!

But I’ve been out today and the sky was blue and there was a big yellow ball in it (not sure this pic shows it, but hey). Plus I woke up to more donations so now at a brilliant total of £425!!

I’m thrilled, thank you ❤️🩸

Day 1 of my challenge to walk 155,000 steps throughout March and I’ve started with a total of 8104 steps 👟

More donations have been received from amazing people and the total is now at £370!

My page and info is below.

Thanks as ever ❤️🩸

Take a look at the story of ‘Notes About Sound’ so far… 💥

And guess what? We’ll be adding to our story next week! 😃

@jamescurran.bsky.social thank you! 🙌

Also, young Tony Hicks was gorgeous ❤️

‘The Air That I Breathe’ is one of the best songs ever written ©️ Nic

Currently watching the brilliant Hollies documentary ‘Look Through Any Window’ and chuckling as Tony Hicks tells of how they paid Elton John £12 to play piano on ‘He Ain’t Heavy’ when he was a session musician! ❤️

Someone online noted this song in a top ten of greatest songs ever. Thoughts?
