In other book news, this arrived today. So my collection of Welsh UFO books now numbers two.
"I looked up, and up, and up, and up, until I saw Tom Noonan's face, looking down at me with a curious expression. 'What did you say your name was?' he asked." A remembrance of my friend Tom, lost too soon. www.rogerebert.com/mzs/a-beauti...
Win win. Thank you so much! x
Today is the launch of Tales Of The Suburbs, the new book by @grindrod.bsky.social
I’m honoured to be one of those tales
(And yes, my parents’ home did have net curtains)
An absolute dream to write this for @thequietus.com about Pet Shop Boys, suburbia and the city
“The bottom of the barrel… ranked!!!”
Still got mine!
Is this at all related to the Korean films of the same name?
If we still haven’t figured out who killed JFK, it’s going to taken an eon to prove the crimes of the current administration.
Wild! Before he played a DJ in Times Square (1980)!
Watched Twisters last night and that’s quite enough country and western music for this year.

Join @luketurner.bsky.social and I at Foyles on Wednesday to talk Tales of the Suburbs. Bring your own Gypsy Creams www.johngrindrod.co.uk/events
Wow. Take any photos last year? What do you most remember about it all from 76?
I’m prepared to visit the site myself. Got these old brochures and guides as homework!
Still got mine!
Kubrick’s garage!
Widescreen cinematography… in Margate?
Ah, they looked similar. Been interested in Paperback Library for their eclectic subjects back then… gothic, occult, strange!
Chilling Monster Tales! (1966). Besides the historical context of horror fan mags, I’m especially interested to see photos from classic movies that I’ve not seen anywhere else.
This edition has a few from the Day of the Triffids movie…
Bought this edition again, to replace my decades-old, shagged, jumble sale copy.
Aching to see the movie again. Might even warm up the video projector for the big screen experience.
“…and now we go back to the Self-Televising Swing-Loo qualifiers.”
The 12” ruled dancefloors for years before the 7” release.
German sleeves are usually reversible, with no FSK logo on the other side?
Absolutely. And an increasingly creepy script from Nigel Kneale.
Excellent rural defibrillator

It feels like winter again.
