If I may stick a music reference in, an ode to the wonder of the 70s by the wonderful men the couldn’t hang.
Early mention of Aztec bars.

Only band I’ve ever seen play the same song twice at the same gig was It Bites. Also at University in the 80s, although it was Leeds, so much more gritty than Reading.

Cabana. Much maligned in these parts. Prince of chocolate bars.
A quick search reveals Rumba, plain Flake, and Texan bars too.Wasn’t there a Vesta curry advert that contained a high pitched voice over “It’s […]

Thus proving that the game can go from T20 to test if you have the right attitude.

I noticed that. Said he was doing some kind of broadcasting course (at Loughborough, whom he was representing). He’s going to need to get used to being in front of the camera more if he’s to make a go of […]

Wife’s sister’s hubby took me to Rock City to see them last tour, with the very, erm, something, Wendy James as support.
Ver Furs were very good actually, speaking as some who knows them pretty much only for “that one”. -

“The Audeze are magnaplanar and a difficult load. Probably too much for the X1.”
Anyone else slightly aroused by that sentence? No? Just me, then… 🙂

Gulp.
It’s been lovely so far, is all I can say.I (well, my stepmum (bless her) treated me from beyond the grave) also bought a Liv GX-divers watch not long back, but don’t like it quite as much […]

I used to live about 200 yards down the road from the Brudenell (in the Harolds) as a student for 2 years. It was probably a “Working Mens Club” then (88-89), it certainly wasn’t a gig venue that I recall.

If we assume that you have a random chance of being “booked out” on a given night, then the odds of you NOT being double booked after 20 months (approx 600 days) are 599/600 x 599/600 = 0.9967.
So the odds on you […] -

There was a Rolex Submariner from the 50s I think on the Antiques Roadshow last night. It was a bit special due to something about the luminous paint used on the face, and it had the original strap.
£50-60k.
Goodness me. -

Lovely post @podicle.
I’ve had an “entry level” Tag for years, but the date has stopped advancing from the 7th to the 8th, so I have to manually do it. Just the 7th to the 8th, no others…
I thus recently […] -

A non specific whale’s back mentioned here. And a “ho heave ho” lyric, and some penguins for good measure.
