The House Of Guinness hasn't grabbed me. It lacks substance and depth. Someone suggested it's 'punk rock in a pint glass', which means they clearly weren't around in '76 and think The Slits only wrote songs for Primark.

Brian Patten died. What a talent. Do yourself a favour and read his #poetry. He was king enough to support Ruebella Magazine back when we were starting up. It seems it's always time yo tidy up your life.

CUT AND CARRIED by NIGEL BIRD
It may seem that my rate of writing has slowed over time, and for a while that was the case. Truth is, I've been as hard at it over the last...

Just finished writing a new novella. It's a noir farce/caper, similar in style to Mr Suit. It took longer than I anticipated and was hard work, partly because I was aiming to have fun (forgetting that even a fun story needs focus and concentration). Glad to be done.

Had such a lovely time in Dunoon last autumn that we're back. Similarly cold, equally beautiful.

I watched Small Things Like These on Saturday. What a great film. Highly recommended.
