Early days, but its fun so far. Always wanted to do something time travel themed, was what got me into sci fi with Doctor Who way back in 2005. As always, has a mythology spin, and some krakens.27 Aug 2026 17:13 +0000at://did:plc:lmctxap3wpl6cuceyaplvhhp/app.bsky.feed.post/3mu3dv3zd7k24https://bsky.app/profile/sarahoakeskraken32.bsky.social/post/3mtvfpxsu7c27Oh this is beautiful [contains quote post or other embedded content]25 Aug 2026 08:30 +0000at://did:plc:lmctxap3wpl6cuceyaplvhhp/app.bsky.feed.post/3mtvfpxsu7c27https://bsky.app/profile/sarahoakeskraken32.bsky.social/post/3mtb4p22ob22oReally enjoyed our grand wind band tour to Suffolk, playing wonderful music with lovely people and having an incredible time.17 Aug 2026 06:56 +0000at://did:plc:lmctxap3wpl6cuceyaplvhhp/app.bsky.feed.post/3mtb4p22ob22ohttps://bsky.app/profile/sarahoakeskraken32.bsky.social/post/3msfhuydp4s27Went to an awesome jazz concert last night and had so much fun.
