Love this #umbro nostalgia (plundered from @showboatkits.bsky.social)

Damn fine...

What a great shot this is

NEW PROJECT - #LowTarMatthaus - I've finally decided to double down on this personal project and give it the attention it deserves. Suggestions, collaborators and those that deal in the currency of 'exposure' are all welcome.

Viz - The Rock and Roll Years - an hour long radio documentary that you should shove into your ears post haste. clyp.it/uv4oz5qy @vizcomic.bsky.social

If you see this, post some purple art

Not back at work till Monday, so time to delve into this present received over the festive period. Created by the ridiculously talented and superhumanly consistent @davidsquires.bsky.social - his 'peek inside the artists studio' is worth some of your hard earned cash alone

Extraordinary moment during miners’ strike when police and pickets forgot hostilities and played football. Nottinghamshire, March 1984, photo by Guardian's Denis Thorpe. Said it reminded him of the Christmas Day truce during WW1.

Loving the Aliens reference in Wallace and Gromit 👌

Always love sharing this, one of the greatest pieces of animation ever created… Enjoy x youtu.be/1w4FJCcZTKU?...

Muggers Corner, Elswick, Newcastle upon Tyne, 1978, by Tish Murtha. Needs an apostrophe.

🚨Launching today: Pin Badge FC. A new website showcasing my complete football badge collection. Starting with the 92 League Clubs and in time moving onto yer Italys, yer Germanys, yer Spains and many more. Pop in and PLEASE do spread the word. 🙏 pinbadgefc.com

Due to the economy, Mothers Day & Fathers Day are to be combined to make a much more affordable Parents Evening.

It's only taken me 10+ years to finally concede and start using layers in a vaguely sensible way... part of a none Boro project I've decided to resurrect #StayTuned

Massive away win for the little fella.

Here we go then... the first keeper in my #BoroTeamSheetProject and it simply had to be Stephen Pears. Still need to do a few tweaks here and there but he's just about done. Absolute legend for the #Boro and all round nice guy too #Teesside #UtB

By public demand I'm doing signings before AND AFTER the @Boro match tomorrow. Seriously, lot of people said they don't want to buy then carry it around. So I'm doing 11.30-12 then I'll back in club shop after the game. Come & let me solve your Christmas present problems.

Jim Abrahams, one of the creators of the highly quotable movie "Airplane!," has sadly passed away. In 2016, he gave us the backstory on how its most enduring joke, "Don’t call me Shirley," may have saved the entire production. vulture.visitlink.me/whJogz
