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)

Nine Skies - Sweetheart Grips (LP, 2019)

Nine Skies - 5.20 (LP, 2021)

^ A wren, maybe. We looked online but nothing seems to fit exactly.

Beneath our gazebo in our back garden we have 2 plastic plant-like balls hanging from hooks in the roof. My wife first spotted a tiny little brown bird flying in and out of a small opening on one side. We've started to monitor the ornament and now see the little bird carrying bits and pieces they've collected and with them building a nest inside. It's now completely filled with leaves and moss and I assume it would be a perfect sheltered nest for birds. We mulled about moving it as it's right over our garden furniture but decided to leave it and see if any baby birds start to make an appearance. We're not sure what the bird is, but it's very sparrow-like but thinner and smaller - research has proved fruitless so we've gone with a sparrow. Ain't nature great.

Brilliant album this - like a mad cross between Hawkwind and Killing Joke:

^ 3 Body Problem is my next watch. I'm currently watching series 2 of the excellent Halo. After those 2 probably Avatar: The Last Airbender and the The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live.

I rarely buy CDs these days, but when I really love an album and it's not on vinyl I will still support the band and get the CD - normally from Bandcamp. I think this is the most I've ever paid for a single CD: £24.50 (£18+£6.50pp). It came from France which is why the p&p is so much - took a while to arrive too:
