Fair play to you Paul but I could never move back, I was never the hardest or fastest but like you I knew every inch of my local estate and every path, tree, bush and shortcut in the park behind my house. About […]

No freedom for me, I tested positive last week.

I met up with an old friend a couple of weeks ago, first time I’d seen him for 18 months, he asked me if I’d followed his advice and really given Adele a good listen, I said I hadn’t, I can appreciate she has a […]

Chatting with an American who was on an organised tour of the UK I was told that the previous day they had been in “Aay-ding-berg”.

My first “grown up” LP that I bought with the money I got for my 11th birthday. Having been obsessed with my mates copy of Ziggy I had high hopes and although a little disappointed at first I grew to love Pinups […]

Blessings counted daily.

I’m in Wighton @freddy-steady about 3 miles south of Wells-next-the-Sea.

Cromer is wildly cosmopolitan compared to the tiny village I live in, made famous as “ Little Bazeley by the Sea” in the Avengers episode “The Town of No Return” in 1965.

Who invented the skip?

Why do I love North Norfolk.

I was sat with beer in hand yesterday evening and a stunning male Hen Harrier glided over the garden.

A very touching piece, my heart goes out to you. I’ve lost two friends over the last ten months, the second one just 5 weeks ago, they had double your son’s time but both seemed far too young to go, I can’t begin […]

I live not too far from Sandringham, we’ve all breathed a sigh of relief around here because the roads will be much safer.

Kristin Hersh – Wyatt at the Coyote Palace – “Released for the first time on vinyl”. This puzzles me a bit because it’s been in my collection for over two years and I bought it from the tax dodgers so not exactly […]

Stubhub cancelled two premium tickets (I’m talking £200+ per ticket) to see Leonard Cohen two days before the gig. Transport arranged, hotel booked, dog-sitters booked. They were simply not bothered and re […]

I’m another who never misses Ross Noble on tour, several times I’ve been to 2 or 3 shows on the same tour and apart from the first and last 5 minutes of each set I’ve seen very different performances. David […]

I’d rather be pissed off than pissed on.

I don’t care about them in the slightest, not watched the interview, not interested in what they have to say.

Harry has taken part in trophy hunts, that makes him a cunt in my book.

I didn’t even realise […]
