People should state exact times for when to arrive or meet. If you say come for 7:30/8:00 what does that mean? Just say come at 8:00. This makes it clear for everyone.

Jimmy Cliff has left us. I once went to Guildford festival just because he was appearing. It says a lot that he can get this old anarchist punk to go out of their way to see him perform.
Mary Rivers To Cross is one of my favourite tracks ever.

Just read a great comment on Youtube about Santa.

"He's clearly a class structure apologist as he brings the rich kids much nicer things and in greater quantities than the poor. He obviously believes in wealth based meritocracy and will not be safe from the revolution."

Police in the north of Ireland chose not to intervene at protests yesterday in support of Palestine Action, while the Metropolitan Police chose to make dozens of arrests at a similar demonstration in London. Both choices were political www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

The PSNI stance in Belfast and Londonderry on Saturday contrasted with the Met Police in London where arrests were made at a similar protest.

Is there a difference between people who generalise based on year of birth and people who generalise based on star sign / month of birth?
All this 'generation' crap is just the new astrology.
Millennials aren't lazy, Boomers aren't selfish, Gen Z aren't snowflakes. Turns out every generation acts roughly the same at each age. Who knew?

A watched kettle never boils.

Just seeing if this DHC-6 opens up the destination airport when landing.

I love it when gig promoters give you the doors open time, first artist starting time and last artist finishing time. Makes things so easy to plan. Many don't do it which leaves people like me in a bit of a pickle as I need to know this stuff.
Well done Undercover!
Now to research parking in Esher.

👉NEW -- How much damage did Palestine Action really do at Brize Norton?

by John McEvoy

Four months after pro-Palestine activists targeted the Royal Air Force base, the Ministry of Defence claims it still doesn’t know the cost of repairs.

Youtube are doing well. They've just recommended Being Frank: The Chris Sievey Story to me. I've not seen this yet. Let's give it a go.

Happy. Got an email from a local gig promoter. They're going to put on shows at a local 400 capacity venue that hasn't hosted gigs for about 15 years AFAIK.
I used to go there all the time. Can't wait to go back again. Don't care who the bands are - just nice to have a good sized local venue.

My brain can get stuck for ages thinking about time zones, especially around the international date line and now I've found out Hawaii and most of Arizona don't do daylight saving time but the rest of the USA does.

Today I found out that The Hives covered Numbers by The Adicts many years ago.

I can't think of any other bands that have done an Adicts tune. Surely someone, somewhere has done Viva La Revolution. It's an early 80s UK punk classic!

Whenever someone posts a "things that didn't happen" in response to something relatively low key, I always feel a swell of genuine pity for them that their lives are so boring they can't even contemplate anything exciting ever happening to anyone else.
