Started on 3 Body Problem last night. Based on a Chinese sci-fi story it's a slow build and lots of odd things going on between present day London and 1960/70s China. An interesting take on a well trodden theme. I'm really liking it so far.

Can't blame them really, might as well enjoy the cash now:

Time for more Zombies (my wife's choice btw). The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live - this tells the story of Rick and Michonne. Like the Daryl Dixon spin-off this is leagues above the last series of TWD and FTWD.

Quote from: Fishy on April 03, 2024, 08:27:46 AMYeah Discipline and Beat are pretty good Three of a perfect pair is fairly heavy going I seem to remember..
Odd that I like Three of a Perfect Pair of the best of the three.

The 3rd and final series of the awful La Brea. Thankfully only 6 shortish episodes. It's total crap but compulsive in a SBIG way.

2 breaks organised so far. A week in a cottage in May - The Cotswolds, then another cottage break in Northumberland in August.

Finished series 2 of Halo last night. I loved the first series, but this felt a bit flat to me - and confusing at times as well. The action scenes were frantic but a great watch. 6/10 for this series. More to come, possibly the story can continue from where it left off?

Had the decorators in today so I had to keep the hifi volume a lot lower than normal, so decided to play all the Nine Skies albums. I truly love this band - they hit my musical nerve perfectly:

Nine Skies - Return Home (LP, 2017)
BC, SPO


Nine Skies - Sweetheart Grips (LP, 2019)
BC, SPO


Nine Skies - 5.20 (LP, 2021)

Nine Skies - The Lightmaker (LP, 2023)
5 stars, BC, SPO
