Seconded.

It isn’t just you – I’ve only been out four times this year, in fact four times since Feb 2020. All of them to see local bands in pubs. Total ticket expenditure about 20 quid. The fourth time, some bugger gave […]

See also: ‘fatally injured’ or ‘fatally wounded’ – also less dead than ‘killed’.

As was Sunday Driver at the Portland Arms. A lovely surprise, as I’d only gone along to see the support band.

I heard it go out live and it didn’t seem to be cut short to me. He’d already said everything he had to say. Perhaps that’s why the headline says “reportedly cut short”. Reported by whom? Brexit was “reportedly […]

She’s well rizz.

You don’t have to have ADHD to feel “rubbish and useless and out of my depth”, Moosey. We all feel like imposters. Well, I do, anyway. 33 years into my (ahem) professional (ahem) career and I still await […]

Here’s something many can relate to:

Heard of 13. Heard 3. I don’t think the Quietus is the mag for me.

Given how long it takes on the NHS to get a referral and a diagnosis, that seems unlikely. They’d have sat their finals, masters and PhD before a formal diagnosis. Might be possible if they have PHI, but still […]

They’re from Oxford but my son’s pal’s dad is their biggest fan, and he lives in Cambridge. They had a five-year break between splitting up a reforming. Is that a record?

I can – cough – “help” with that, Dai…

I forgot to add, I binge-watched both Deutschland 86 and Deutschland 89 (having previously seen Deutschland 83) over a weekend of ‘flu. Neither were particularly new (2018 and 2020) but both very good if you like […]

This will come as no surprise, Moosey, but it made me laugh.

It’s nearly* all great, released on Gott Discs, the hobby label of Cambridge local scenester (and school friend of my tall chum) Mike Gott. (*) Waterson:Carthy’s take on Norwegian Wood is a bit of a dirge. When […]

I’m up for this, if the price is right, as (a) Abbey Road Half-Speed Master Alert! and (b) my early-80s copy is fairly battered.

The question is: better, or worse?

Or you might be masking your inner behaviour to appear acceptable to the AW and, left to your own devices, you’re quite different.

This, from 2006’s (dodgily-titled) Rubber Folk tribute, is my fave Fabs cover.

I’m not ADHD but I’m interested in this from a “what took you so long?” point of view. A family member was recently given an Autism diagnois and has thrived since – talking therapy, support groups, coping […]
