Very important Hallowe'en playlist, which is what I will be listening to exclusively for the entirety of October.

Mostly the songs that aren't death metal are my contributions, or the ones my lovely friends have suggested. I've got way more back into metal since moving into my current housemate, but every now and again I spring something truly terrible on her (like the Fleshgod Apocalypse version of Blue Da Ba Dee).

The best songs from the above playlist, in my opinion, are:

Roses by the Indelicates

The Hearse Song by Rusty Cage

Waltzin Black by the Stranglers

Hallowe'en is my favourite time of year - I have persuaded my bubble to go to the Coffin Works in Birmingham on the Saturday, followed by games and Hallowe'en playlist, then on the Sunday we're going to have mimosas and go to a Tim Burton themed brunch at our local vegan junk food cafe. I'm lucky that, even though it's only four days a week, my new job provides the same salary as my last one; I've already bought myself two Hallowe'en mystery boxes from Etsy and every shop I go into tempts me with terrible gaudy cheap wonderful tat. :D

I'm reading old, good hockey fic, today, alongside the book for my boozy book club. We're reading The Cities We Became by N K Jemisin and meeting up in a pub to talk about it on Saturday, then I have a week to read The Bird King by G Willow Wilson for my zoom book club next Friday. I think I'm going to make time to read The Skeleton Army and the Bonfire Boys, Worthing, 1884, a journal article by Chris Hare. Working at a university gives you access to so many beautiful, beautiful things.

If you're comfortable talking about it, what's your new job?

That's great news! I think the last I heard you were still teaching kids.
