Friends, I have a real feeling that I am going through the same December as 1986. That was the best of times and the worst of times, both in equal measure. In many ways I feel like I’m 18 again, but without making the same mistakes. Wish me luck compadres, it’s a rollercoaster…..👌🏻

This legendary boss reggae tune became the opening track on Trojan's Tighten Up compilation in 1969.
The series ran to 6 volumes and turned on a generation of British youngsters to the new reggae sound coming out of Jamaica..

Dear BBC…please only allow Chris Mason to broadcast programmes about second hand caravans. The bloke is a complete muppet and I’m fed up of seeing his irrelevant little face and opinions and stirring up rubbish for the sake of it….a waste of transplant organs.

I had a very interesting chat with an old mate yesterday. He was as being a bit reactionary about the way the world is, and was moaning about adverts, and why he feels minorities are being over catered for. We had a good discussion about it, and at the end we managed to agree that….

Been up in the drivers seat of the Vulcan today, well nearly… a good 40 minutes up in the cockpit talking about analogue systems and controls. Bloody fantastic looking at the masses of fuse arrays and wiring, I just love this sort of technology

Tonight’s Van Der Valk is one of my favourites….he gets called Van Walk by an English inspector, and That there London looks relatively clean and modern compared to Amsterdam. And of course the extremely Welsh character playing Men of Harlech in the car 👌🏻

The story of Mr Benn Cook is:
The Princess refused to eat any food until all the poor children of the kingdom came to join her for a feast.
The moral is very important:
We must make sure there is enough food for everybody.

Lots of artists have been great at B-sides but only The Teardrop Explodes and Julian Cope (albeit perhaps not beyond My Nation Underground) did enough to compile into a stone-cold, no notes, filler-free, ten-out-of-ten, sky-high all-time masterpiece. open.spotify.com/playlist/0ju...
