No, but I’ve always been involved in the Ipswich debaser.org email group, and did a long-running series of match reports (“View From Churchmans”) until technology rather overtook day-old blog reports. Or you may […]

Owner Marcus Evans is running the club in a very un-football-like way: he just applies the same principles as he would to any other part of his business. So the manager is treated like a COO or someone at a […]

No mention yet of “And Some Fell On Stony Ground”?

Vatican Broadside, Ordinary to Enschede, Bob Wilson – Anchorman and Eno Collaboration… together on CD at last?

Make this Christmas a Half Man Half Biscuit […]

Cambridge Junction? Explain?

OK, done plenty of this with a Mac. The simplest bit of hardware required is a Griffin iMic, which converts a 3.5mm audio cable to USB. I connect this to the hi-fi with a stereo phono to stereo 3.5mm cable. Job […]

Nothing. Can’t see why it got a 12A. Whoopi Goldberg unnecessarily drops an F-bomb in a talking head bit. That’s it IIRC. Drugs barely hinted at, no sex at all, and even less tea.

Magnificent. Got a round of applause in our cinema. I agree that the talking heads (don’t worry, there aren’t that many) are, er, eclectic – and surprisingly British. The director doesn’t let the moviemaking get i […]

Pulling the ice axe from my leg, I staggered on, spindrift stinging my remaining eye. I finally managed to reach the station, only to find that the bus replacement service had broken down.

Enjoying several of the recommendations above, cheers all. I keep a continually-updated Spotify playlist of sample tracks from new albums I’ve liked*, and it has 37 albums on it so far from 2016. Most have been […]

It’s on Spotify, under just “Allison Miller”. Just listening now.

http://ukandeu.ac.uk is a really good academic site where you can read independent answers on the topics which you find most important. It’s helped me, anyway.

This is what we love about the Afterword. Several screens of responses and I’m not sure anyone’s answered the question. Fabulous.

I think it’s supposed to be more of a writing tool than an analysis one. So you […]

Unapologetic.

Something which hasn’t been highlighted enough about iTunes Match is that if it “matches” the song (which it did for about 80% of my library), the backup is the nice pristine 256kB version which Apple holds. If […]

The Style Council: “Have You Ever Had It Blue?” – http://youtu.be/RRGnXprimbg – a decent, and rather fun, more jazz-infused reworking of an earlier album track “With Everything To Lose” – http: […]

Still chuffed that I contributed in a small way to getting Half Man Half Biscuit’s “Urge For Offal” voted as The Guardian’s readers’ 2014 album of the year: […]

That’s a bit concerning, Sour Crout. Nobody else has reported that, but then again, maybe nobody else has got that far! Please confirm if there is a problem and I’ll sort it out (I’m away from my PC for a few days).
