I joined #Blueksy ages ago but have been waiting for the transition to gather pace...

I'll be here if you need me:

@WaysideWoodland Folllowed! Just posted something similar myself, too...

[Mark Samuels @mark_samuels]

@jilkmusic My pleasure. Anything with a ZX Spectrum-inspired postrock/glitch vibe is likely to end up in my tape collection! Sounds great.

[Mark Samuels @mark_samuels]

@paulcarterTV Looks great, mate - will enjoy watching. Hope all’s good with you!

[Mark Samuels @mark_samuels]

@dnapainter Yeah, I liked it. I thought it would be awful!

Lots of people tweet pics of their craft beers but I see less people tweeting their cans of craft fizzy pop. So, here’s some of the good stuff in my house right now, much of which has been supplied by my awesome neighbour. #Pop

[Mark Samuels @mark_samuels]

A bumper update of fizzy pop delights sourced by my next-door neighbour from locations around the globe including Czechia, United States, Mexico, Bulgaria, Poland and Japan. #Pop

[Mark Samuels @mark_samuels]

It’s been a long time coming but here’s another fizzy pop update. This time, my neighbour’s sourced some rare delicacies, including Egyptian Pepsi, Iraqi Coke and a suite of Fantas. #Pop

Two years of bliss. Every time you think it can't get any better, it does. Just think what the next two years could be like...

Up the Villa! #AVFC

[Aston Villa @AVFCOfficial]

On this day two years ago, we appointed Unai Emery as our Head Coach 🤩

[Mark Samuels @mark_samuels]

@jhemusinsignia Yes! That new statue the club are taking about? Just build Unai.

[Mark Samuels @mark_samuels]

A few years ago I used to spend mid-week worrying whether Stoke and Barnsley’s results would keep us out the Championship playoff spots. Now I worry whether Liverpool will knock us off the top spot of the Champions League table. #AVFC

[Mark Samuels @mark_samuels]

@jhemusinsignia Amazing, isn't it? I keep saying to my wife: "Where will it end?"

Her response: "Why will it end?"'

I need to stop thinking like a Villa fan and be a bit more Unai!

[Mark Samuels @mark_samuels]

We’ve all said it a lot during the past two years but, seriously, what a time to be an Aston Villa fan.

Up the Villa! #AVFC

@karenvogtmusic cn2f-yafz - thank you!

[Mark Samuels @mark_samuels]

@janeskyn @OxfamMusicStore She’s excellent and always underrated.

[Mark Samuels @mark_samuels]

In amongst the unblocked blocks, blue-tick madness and general garbage, there’s still some bright lights and some good people. I enjoyed reading this post and the replies. Felt like the little blue bird of old.

[Paper Cup Coffee Liverpool @PCPCoffee]

Another day of less than £100 sales...if you are in town and buying coffee, please consider us instead of the big chains. Our coffee is delicious and we use local suppliers, roasted here in Liverpool.

I’ve seen a couple of films in the past week.

That Joker film that everyone hates. It was so unconventional that I quite enjoyed it, especially Gaga’s performance.

I also saw Lee, which is great. A well-told story beautifully played by Kate Winslet.

@DotAllisonmusic @soniccathedral Got!

Strictly is a bit like Formula 1. No one knows who’s really the most popular celebrity because lots of people vote for a professional and no one knows who’s really the best driver because some cars are a lot better than others. #Strictly #SCD

[Mark Samuels @mark_samuels]

@vinkashire Looking east!

[Mark Samuels @mark_samuels]

East London. #northernlights

[Mark Samuels @mark_samuels]

@RobWhite_UK Weren’t they just.

[Mark Samuels @mark_samuels]

That was very poor. Congratulations to Greece - well deserved. #ENG
