Based on some of these comments, it would appear that Bruce Springsteen, Paul Simon and Roger Waters all had some valid opinions on school and education!

I did go to a reunion for my year – just out of curiosity to see what people had done over the previous 33 years. I didn’t regret it, but it made me realise that there was a good reason why I hadn’t stayed in […]

Double checked and triple checked to ensure perfection. Spotted the error the second after it was too late. The story of my life!

Uncut June EditionHow come I’ve just receieved the June edition of Uncut magazine? It’s still April! If they carry on at this rate they will have to publish 13 editions in a year. That’s all.

Another lengthy review, in the Guardian this time, so plenty of publicity for these re-issues. I had forgotten ‘Dram of Exile’, which is also a pretty good album – […]

For some reason, I seem to have missed posting at the end of January completely, so will have to cover 2 months together. SEEN Sadly no concerts so far this year, but I did have a trip to the theatre at the […]

Talking of Lewisohn, are we ever likely to see volume 2? Or is he going to become the George RR Martin of music biographers?

My own pet peeve is when you are watching a play at the theatre, in which a well known star is appearing, and they receive a round of applause at their first entrance without even uttering a word.

I think the problem with the TV version, for many fans of the books, was that it was nothing like the books – particularly the portrayal of Banks himself. Peter Robinson himself was not a fan of the way they were adapted.

Thanks to all for the comments and recommendations – clearly a lot to be added to the ‘To Be Read’ pile! Few more names that I’ve remembered – Kate Atkinson’s Jackson Brodie novels are excellent. And a trio of […]

Agree that Peter James started to tail off, although the last couple were better – and the TV version is pretty good. I like Robert Galbraith, and Richard Osman. Enjoyed the first couple of Stuart McBride, but […]
