But which BBT T Shirt? I’m sure you have the set (as do I). I’m starting to find that one with the big bird on it a tad embarrassing!

I’ve also been using the stores since those early London Bridge days. I’ve lost count of the speakers, amps, turntables, CD players, tuners (remember them?) and cables that I have lugged home in a cardboard box. […]

You’re very welcome. I’m really enjoying it.

Watched
Line of Duty, by far the least impressive season to date.
Fleabag , beautiful, what a talent.
Russian Doll, a really impressive Netflix show. Eight short episodes along the theme of Groundhog day but […]

WIne and twitter, not a good combination. Almost certainly not intentional but social media is unforgiving, and he does spend quite a bit of time there.
I’ve been an admirer of his for many years especially the […]

As regards the mobile data bit, I’m successfully running nine different sonos devices with only 4G as the data input. (Still no broadband in my neck of the woods). I don’t hold with any Alexa malarkey but I use […]

As a slight aside, I recently listened to the audio book version of the latest book. In the chapter about comedy records I was expecting the whole thing to be leading up to the genre dominance of Monty Python […]

Just a heads up for your christmas after dinner quiz. The answer to question 1 will be 1971.

Enjoyed that Twang. You are really getting the hang of this podcast malarkey!

So what do we think his next two books will be about? Must be running out of headings. As much as I enjoy and hang on his every […]

I really like BBT and this is a welcome uptempo addition to the collection. I have tickets for the London gig in November.
That said I think the video is a tad ill advised. I can’t help thinking that they look […]

Really enjoyed this. Thank’s for the nod. passed two long commutes with it yesterday and today!
Ricky Ross is a really good presenter, I’m surprised he’s not more widely known.

Always love a reference to Tight Fit. Allows me to say…

The bloke out of Tight Fit sadly died at sea yesterday, The poor guy was bitten by a shark. Witnesses say that he “couldn’t wimaway quick enough.”

I thank you

I believe that David Longdon, the singer from Big Big Train works three days a week in a supermarket.
It’s a reality in the modern world. You have to pay the rent and put food on the table anyway you can. No harm […]

I think older versions disapear from Spotify when they release a new one. Crafty buggers!

Genuine question. do these reissues sound any better than the original when using Spotify and the like?

My take on this is that the charts completely stalled around the time of X Factor / Pop Idol and similar. Not just because these programmes can command a Christmas number one but more because there is a definite […]

My GLW will also be a semi reluctant passenger at the Hackney Empire gig in November. I think she tollerates these occasional jaunts but secretly enjoys them. Looking around the audiance it probably makes her feel […]
