Bootleg Beatles have been going since ’79!

That’s sad news. Thinking of you and sending best wishes.

Funnily @dai I too was on a camping trip a 25 mile overnight hike with The Scouts. I remember it was in deep winter. It was just one other scout and myself we arrived at the campsite and it was empty. We were the […]

Bowie is of course the first to come to mind. I was at V & A East yesterday to have a peruse at the Bowie room. I mentioned to my companion it might have been interesting had Bowie and Prince joined forces. It […]

Bowie Popular – Lets Dance Connoiseur – Low

Love this too – Waterfall rehersals 2013

Went to a good home and I’m sure you made them very happy. (;

I was at The Marquee gig. Pity there’s no dvd. A grand! Only 2500 copies, I could retire on that…

Sorry @UncleWheaty. I was answering you but then thinking of the wider issues ‘down the road’.

Crisps are supposed to be memorable? Who knew? Sheev | 14 July 2009 – 9:37pm Be fair you can taste cheese and onion for about 4 hours. Not too mention the smell on your hands. That’s memorable in my […]

Not so much what I’d eat, but how I’d eat it. Given that the FPO.. *point of order – I don’t know what FPO stands for – I have just learned that it somehow refers to one’s significant other* ..is out of town, […]
