Phew.
The post sort-of kind-of pretty much worked!

I’m off to bask in a vague glow of relief at my being less technically incompetent than I thought and await the inevitable DELUGE of responses.

To the tiny-dicked tangerine toddler-in-chief.
You are really really good at tweeting and tantruming at the same time.
Who said people with no IQ couldn’t lead a country?

Although my responses make me sound like I’ve only been watching Bond films for the last 10 years, Skyfall was the best, closely followed by Casino Royale. Craig is a fantastic Bond,

The worst was Die Another […]

I tried to buy it and was only able to download a 20-page sample. No option to buy the kindle version.
Very odd.
Quite fancied a read of that this weekend as well.

Love it!
I bet there were absolutely loads of Waits-related places I missed on another recent trip to LA.
I’m simply going to have to do some more listening research and go back.

Thanks for posting.
I’ve been doing that thing of occasionally thinking about her and wondering how she was doing, without going online and trying to find out, for a few months now.
I’m another one who probably […]

I have tickets for the London show at the end of the month and I’m looking forward to it even more now.
(Incidentally, I saw Belinda O’Hooley -along with Heidi – on Saturday. Mighty fine keyboard player indeed.)

I am very prone to this.

The back of the Savoy where the Dylan video was shot.
Haight Ashbury to see where Janis, the Grareful Dead, Country Joe and the Fish and others lived.
I chose an Airbnb in LA […]

About 10 years ago I was waiting for a flight in Tokyo airport and shared the waiting area with Kasabian.
To while away the time a couple of them had fan letters they were reading out loud and taking the piss […]

I ditched them after the weekend.
They were just holding me back.

Now I can focus on the jazz version of the act.

Love this album. Saw him a couple of times, once as a support and once in a small London venue.
Stuck a couple of tracks on a playlist for a recent holiday and was reminded how much I enjoy him.

I have a first-class sense of direction. Can always find my way around a place, even if all I’ve done is glance at a map for a few seconds. Proved it at the weekend by leading the other ladies in the hen weekend […]

Welcome!

I was a lurker for ages too.

I can include several of the above authors in my collection.
But the book I buy copies of if I see it in a charity shop so that I can hand them out to anyone I meet who hasn’t read it is The Time Traveler’s Wife […]

Aha!

Pacific white-sided dolphins.

Them’s the ones.

Sorry *hangs head*

I can’t remember what flavour they were.
I’ll ask the other attendee later, they are usually very good at remembering useful detail such as that.

I have, however, filed in my head the […]

I didn’t darken the door of any of those!

It was The Roost on Los Feliz Boulevard.
I was expecting a bit of a seedy dive-type place but it was resplendent with fairy lights and Easter decorations and very cheery.

Eels
John Grant
Martha Wainwright
Jeff Buckley
Led Zeppelin (it’s taking me a while, I keep forgetting which two I haven’t got)
First Aid Kit
Zero 7

Stopped:
Like many others here, Neil Young. There are just too many.

There were a few comments along the lines of ‘You guys are as crazy as us right now’ but for the most part, there was no one discussing politics.
Apart from the bartender at the bar I went drinking in where […]
