I was too busy trying to read Roger Red Hat or Billy Blue Hat at the time.

Sometimes I struggle with choice. When I’m at the SUPERMARKET™ doing my food shopping (wearing a mask of course), I am baffled by the sheer amount of VARIETY™ on offer. There’s bargains to be had, if you like tha […]

Ah, I should have clarified, I didn’t mean Diane Abbot specifically. I just used her as an example as she’s the Shadow HC. I could’ve said Angela Rayner, Lisa Nandy or any other Labour MP.

Why am I convinced that if you were to replace the words, ‘Priti Patel’ with ‘Diane Abbott’, the same people defending Patel on Twitter, would be demanding Abbot’s dismissal from the shadow cabinet?

Why am I […]

Babes in the Wood
‘Orrible

Already on Twitter it’s a case of Tory MPs and the like, tweeting what a wonderful woman Patel is, hard-working, volunteers at soup-kitchens, misunderstood. The Kryptonite of the ‘Woke’ left. The BAME success […]

I agree. I’m forever (though not so much this year) discovering music by artists/bands who had their career peaks before I was even born, or whose songs passed me by at the time. I’ve bought two albums this year – […]

We thought similar. I’m surprised they didn’t ask the actor to wink knowingly to the camera as he spoke.

Roll On John quotes Come Together too, in addition to referencing A Day in The Life.

The Paul McCartney Project has the tracklisting –

We’re half-way through the latest season, and we’re still before my time.

It’ll be halfway through Season 5 when I start watching episodes about events I remember happening at the time (I won’t mention them […]

We will put Tiny Japanese to bed around 7pm. She rarely wakes up in the night, but has started doing so recently. My wife and I will watch TV downstairs before going to bed around 9pm, where we will read for a bit […]

I’ve just Googled John Osoff. I look forward to following his presidential campaign in 40 years time.

For years the only Suede song I was really familiar with was Beautiful Ones (it was one of the songs on Now 35, which I had a copy of). For unknown reasons they went under my radar – even though I loved the song – […]

Mrs Japanese bought me this for my birthday earlier in the year, and I am reading this at the moment. I’m currently half way through and can only echo the praise it’s received so far.

Somebody needs to tell Alex Turner that Rotherham doesn’t rhyme with problem either.

Up The Junction is pure poetry.

I was a relative latecomer to Radiohead. Apart from the singles from OK Computer (which I’d heard via Now 37 etc), the first album I was aware of when it came out was Hail to the Thief. At the time I had my […]

I’ve only ever knowingly heard If You Leave Me Now and CTA. I loved ‘Does Anybody Know What Time It Is?’, but the album is ruined by ‘Free Form Guitar’.

Maybe it was because she was worried somebody would do this before she reached the end.

I’m sure I’ve seen this before…
