Sad news about the passing of Bill Oddie. Bill, who grew up in Quinton, supported the successful Save Our Bog campaign in 1980—Birmingham City Council planned to build a housing estate adjacent to Moseley Bog. The images are from The Moseley Paper. Bill was certainly a Goodie.
The March edition of @MoseleyB13Mag Magazine is out this weekend!
The magazine features Woodcraft Folk Group & the Black Adder Morris; Moseley Society History Group on Nora Davison, the Moseley-born Watercolourist and Illustrator; Tommy Quang’s spoof @WorldofStrange; & much more!
Don’t miss my return to @MoseleyB13Mag this weekend where I chat to Eamonn Rafferty, the manager of the man who claims to be Elvis Presley.
Rafferty said “Elvis”, now living in Tyseley, will make his 2025 comeback with gigs that will blow Black Sabbath & Oasis out of the water!
Don’t miss New Year 2024k into 2025k at Rock Shack 5000! 🎸🤘
Just mention “Tommy Quang’s World of Strange” at the bar to get 20% off a refreshing pint of Tesco Value lager! 🍺🎉
Last nights Doctor Who was fantastic! Goodbye to Tenant (for now!) and hello to Gatwa! Enjoy this image featuring all the Doctors up to now. WHO is your favourite? #DoctorWho#TheGiggle
With the release of Now and Then by The Beatles, it’s a perfect opportunity to look back on “the Billesley Beatle”, the forgotten (and some would say the best) Beatle. #NowAndThen
The amazing story of the forgotten Beatle from Billesley and how the Fab Five almost played their final gig on top of the Rotunda.

Hardly visible on grainy old VHS but the Blu-ray of Three Men and a Little Lady has revealed what appears to be the Sasquatch in the background of the hit sequel. Can anyone explain this? @TedDanson? #ThreeManAndALittleLady#Cryptozoology
Call me Mr Sceptical, but I'm beginning to doubt the validity of this "collector's edition" DVD I bought from Tyseley Farmers' Market. #TyseleyFarmersMarket
Well done to David Isgrove & the team behind @MoseleyFarmMkt for winning the UK's best farmers' market for the 4th time! In 2021 I wrote about Moseley's mission to Mars (sponsored by Pauline's Pop-up Pasta, Pastries and Pies) with a plan to make David the first person on Mars...
Beale’s popularity in Yemen is a mystery but one sociologist/soap expert thought it was down to his hard working nature (the character was a market trader), the way he looked after his family & his valiant battles against Pat Butcher & Wilmott-Brown.
Yemen’s 17th annual Pete Beale lookalike contest takes place on Wednesday. Pete Beale (played by Peter Dean) featured in Eastenders from 1985-1993 & the character is said to have gained popularity & developed into a folk hero in parts of Yemen after constant repeats of the soap.
It's true! I'm back & in the latest Viz reporting on some very strange activity in Tyseley, including time traveller Morphy Richards; the nightclub bouncer who gained super powers from a spray tan; & a telly haunted by Bamber Boozler. Grab your copy now! #Viz#Strange#SprayTan
Anyone remember Tommy Quang’s @WorldofStrange? The inept local paranormal researcher featured in @MoseleyB13Mag from 2020 until 2022.
The spoof character is in the latest issue of Viz magazine (no. 324/April)! Helping to put Tyseley on the map! In the shops now!
