We are going home tomorrow after a lovely fortnight in a log cabin in deepest darkest Lincolnshire. It’s been a fantastic relaxing break after a fairly traumatic first half of 2022.
On one hand it was sad […]

No drugs but I do catheterise everyday. Which isn’t as bad as it seems, the alternative is a lot worse believe me. I haven’t missed a day since 2014, I’ve even done it on a moving train when we got the sleeper to Scotland.

Reading this at the moment. In turns heartbreaking and hilarious with some deluded people but also quite a few with their head screwed on.

A very prescient thread because my Mum passed away last Monday and of course I’ve been thinking of music for the funeral in a few weeks. There’s only one choice really, Frank Sinatra. My mum absolutely loved him, […]

Queuing up to get Mike Smiths autograph for a lady friend (honestly!) at the Worthing roadshow in 1983 I think, Sarah Greene tapped me on the shoulder and asked if she could push in and surprise Mike. He didn’t […]

You aren’t alone with the spreadsheet. I’m in my 4th year of recording new purchases on a sheet. If only for the end of year polls on here.

Slightly ashamed but we’ve been avoiding the news. My Mother in Law has just gone into a rest home so that and work taking up most of our time. And neither feel like watching the events in Ukraine, we don’t think […]

I was working in my first ‘proper’ job (Photographers Assistant) and I ordered it from a tiny record shop in the small West Sussex town where I was working. It took a week and a half to get there.
I taped it as […] -

As I haven’t had a drink since 21st September 1988 I won’t be doing this, but my wife is. 0% Gordon’s is her tipple at the moment.
I stopped because I was about an inch away from it becoming a big problem. I had […]
