Signs of Emotionally Available People:
1. Don’t erupt or go into irrational behaviors when feelings are expressed
2. Can have difficult conversations
3. Can listen to a different perspective
4. Words align with actions (in short, they do what they say they will)
5. Apologize when they’re hurtful or act out of character
6. Do not use silence to punish
7. They’re secure: they do not thrive off of negative intensity, drama, or chaos

#Vinyl #ColouredVinyl a mystery of marketing that spread across genres Thankfully no impact on sound quality and a fine tune for a sunny afternoon #RootsReggae
ALT False Sebtence by Hopetown Lindo a Rockers Plantation 12" on slightly sickly looking purple vinyl.
#recordstoreday2023 no thanks I'll just buy when I hear or see the #Vinyl I like and want, just as I have been doing for 45 years and more.
@StPaulsCRNVL in a week of sadness at the passing of the #ZuluWarrior Jah Shaka. But remembering Carnival past when he played, educated & entertained #Bristol through the night to the Sunday morning dawn. Hoping his influence & our memories will be represented at on 1st July '23
@StPaulsCRNVL a flyer for 4th July '98 including map to Tennis Courts just off Grosvenor Road, Joyful, upfull and packef through til Jah light.
A sad day, hearing of the passing of Jah Shaka #ZuluWarrior his #Soundsystem nights & vinyl were a source of learning, inspiration and pleasure to me and so many others workdwide. Many of his tunes come to mind but this with Junior Brown feels right m.youtube.com/watch?v=-3Ic6W…
#RoughSleeping2023 thanks for the invite @HomelessLink to come and run a workshop, in person & then virtual. New Challenges - Extreme heat and living on the streets. Good engagement and much further work to do.
Put it off and then put off some more, but it's #Vinyl #Records moving day. Let's try and assembly it all in one place perhaps, not in five different places. This is a task!!
ALT Piles of 10" & 12" 45s and then some accumulated (collected surely) LPs. Not a good way to store them, but it's a temporary thing. Next step, on to shelving.
This year instead of plates we will be using vintage Quality Street tins to serve #ChrisrmasDinner It will be more fun and people who want to have their Plum Pudding with the Turkey will have enough space to do that.

With temperatures set to drop below 0°C, the Severe Weather Emergency Protocol (SWEP) has been activated in London to provide additional support to people rough sleeping in the area.
If you’re concerned about someone sleeping rough, contact @Tell_StreetLink #homelessness
Kitchen re-build felt like an opportunity to test #acoustics in a new empty space, or alternatively it was just a place and time for to play some music quite #Loud
Some #books stay with you #TheSevenMoonsofMaaliAlmeida has stuck for me. Beautifully complex & multi layered. I may not read it all again, but I've gone back & reread pages, sections again. Deeply philolosophical, spiritual & humanist threads. I want more from @ShehanKaru & soon
