Do you want to know why everybody thinks they were financially better off in the past?
No mobile phones or devices. No streaming services. No subscriptions. No coffee shops. One car per household. Cheap transport. More affordable housing. Cheap nights out.
Was it better then? Sometimes.

Finally off the rental merry-go-round and the proud owner of a pile of bricks.

There's a pigeon strolling round the garden, snacking on insects without so much as a "by your leave". The cheek of it.

Nigel Farage is the kind of guy who used to stand at the end of the bar while you were chatting to your mates. He'd come out with some comment and everybody would just turn to him and say "Shut up, Farage"!

Want to feel great about yourself? Play "Fanfare for the common man" anywhere you go - especially going to the toilet!

You are of a certain age if, when listening to "In The Air Tonight" by Phil Collins you can't help but see a gorilla.

Do your musical associations indicate your age? If somebody says what band do you associate with each country what comes to mind?
For me:
Scotland - Big Country
N. Ireland - The Undertones
Ireland - U2
Wales - The Alarm
England - XTC

How close are we getting to "Eighth Day" by Hazel O'Connor?

Incredible. More than forty years on Tocatta by Sky still gives me goosebumps.

Decided I'm going to start every morning with "Hocus Pocus" by Focus. Really wakes me up and gets me in the mood.

I open my curtains at 7am
Just so you think I'm up with the rest of the men.

As small children we can't wait to get into "long trousers". As adults we look forward to the day when we can switch to shorts.

So JD Vance was one of the last people to see the Pope. Do we think he engineered the Pope's death so Trump could try to become Pope? Why not? Seems Trump wants total power. How better than to be in charge of the Church?

A message to you Trumpy
"Stop your fooling around
Time you straighten right out
Better think of your future
Else you'll wind up in jail"

Listening to "Pump it up" - Elvis Costello & The Attractions with a reminiscent smile.

I wish I had the wit.
Turns out Le Pen is not mightier than the fraud.

It's so great to be able to open the windows and let the indoor air out!

Pity I never truly appreciated UB40 way back when. Such lyrics. Listening to "Present Arms".

Today's football commentary - player's name, player's name, long period of silence, useless statistics... Rinse and repeat.
March 9, 2025 at 5:12 PM
Funny how they're gonna penalise goalkeepers for holding on to the football but nothing about how long a throw-in takes.

Mexican standoff in the garden this morning. Magpie staring at crow who's staring at pigeon who's staring at magpie. It won't end well.
