Today's walk.
First walk outside with the new splints. A lot less foot dragging and better heel to toe movement.

I dreamt I was back in the Stats Office again last night.
But it's the first dream I've had which acknowledged what's happened this year - I walked with a stick, someone noticed my trachiotemy scar and I explained Guillarn-Barre Syndrome to someone else.
Most peculiar.

Imaginary Albums #17: The Rolling Stones. In honor of (or as a replacement for) the new reissue of Black & Blue, the Stones' first post-Mick Taylor record, here's an imagined final Taylor LP, culling the assorted non-album leftovers on which he played.
Imaginary Albums #17: The Rolling Stones (Again)

Stereolab - Toppermost
It was the end of the summer of 1991 when I heard Stereolab for the first time. That particular summer was one of those magical times when everything came together; a perfect time of friendship and gr...

Ok, I'll admit it, this didn't seem promising but turned out to be very enjoyable.
Back on the Christmas movies.
"Merry little Ex-mas" (Netflix, 2025)
Again all indoor scenes are curiously dubbed. The English eccentric character is already annoying within minutes. Plot visible from space. Alicia Silverstone deserves better.

Years ago I set up a Google alert for my old podcast Goldfish Radio. From time to time it pops up with something.
Today it has picked up Peter Hitchens in the Daily Fail.

God I hate those bland FB posts which give seemingly knowledgeable overviews of artists or albums. This guff about Duran Duran's "Arena" album... "Critics noted this immediately", quoting Stephen Thomas Erlewine. Who was 11 years old in 84. So either he started reviewing music early or it's bollocks

New splints for my feet. Should encourage my toes and ankles to "wake up". I'm already walking more "naturally" according to the physios.
And they're called Boxio!
