Flash Frame of Vic & Bob

One of the surprising events of the week: going to Kenwood Mall on a whim early Friday evening to find it absolutely packed. If you’ve been wondering just who has been going to see Avatar 2, I’m placing bets on these people. Odd scenes of nostalgia and confusion: a packed shopping mall. In 2023.

I haven’t been feeling all that well this weekend, so pretty much all I have been able to do is watch old Top Of The Pops videos like this and this and get lost in the hauntology of a time that never quite existed (but how can you not love a performance where the front row have all made their own Noddy hats?). Oh, and Lovejoy. Because you have to, don’t you?¹

Also, I realized on Friday that I haven’t crossed the border back into Kentucky since I got home the airport in December. Which is really quite odd. Normally, I’ll go to the big Kroger in Newport at least once a fortnight, but all of this month, I have had plans to, only to get up in the morning and think “but what if you just go to the little Kroger just around the corner, eh?” I don’t think I have actually left Colerain in my own car this month at all. Which…might not be great.

Next week: hopefully something a little more interesting instead…
