Worth remembering that Miles nicked the gist of SOS from Rodrigo….

Have to agre with you. The paperbacks entranced me as a teenager – I still have a few tattered Pans and can’t bear to part with them. Bond truly belongs back then, and it’s a shame the films have been allowed to […]

Is Naomie Harris in it? She is?? I’m watching.

Re: Friday – you have my sympathy Kid; we were up on high Dartmoor all week, and Friday was indeed the utter dregs of dampsville up at Kestor.

IIRC, to my dismay (Cornwall is in receipt of the highest levels of EU funding) the dullard majority west of the Tamar voted to Leave.

My family is from Cornwall, and I understand the high levels of antipathy […]

Come off it, I didn’t declare that any kind of logic dictated that anyone was unequivocably a Tory, I observed that declaring Jo Swinson “clearly isn’t a Tory” is much too blunt a statement, because it’s actually […]

“Clearly isn’t a Tory”

Hmmm. Not entirely sure how clear that assertion really is.

Well, yes, I have a lot of sympathy for most of your points, but I think you over-egg the Tory-light pudding, despite Swinson’s embarrassing voting record on many subjects. Personally I couldn’t swallow the idea […]

Doesn’t sound like an “attitude” to me, looks more like an observation. Too many working people have been so comprehensively nudged, for so long now, that they’ve become oblivious to the likely consequences they […]

Splendid idea – I’ll see what I can come up with one of these Fridays. Nothing exotic this week though; we are ensconced in a little bijou pied a terre nestling right on the edge of Dartmoor, looking up at the […]

Brings a whole new meaning to the term “hiring & firing”.

One of the artists on the very first Womad Talking Book album. Awesome dancing stuff.

It’s a complete joy this disc!

My wife owns six Connemara ponies.

I have no domestic conflict issues at all filling an entire bedroom, half the living room, the loft and half of the garage with my CD/LP/Book crap.

My advice? Get a missus who […]

You can imagine it easily; that swirling Bridget Riley vortex, that stirring late 60s theme tune, a figure falling through time and space, tumbling, tumbling, head over heels into some distant instance of […]

All CDs imported from the USA will have been chlorinated as they left the elysian fields of Trumpton, and visiting musicians will need to have been genetically modified before they can cross any borders. Bloke in […]
