Ah, my sister-in-law was there last night too. I did wonder if any of ‘our lot’ might go.

I disagree. There’s a fine line between the brave and the stupid-who-think-they-are-brave.

I know which side of the line you’re on 🙂

‘Career’ is the thing that capitalism invented to keep you on the treadmill of wage slavery.
It takes bravery to take a different path.

I was just remembering that record shop as I came to this reply! The whole place was a hidden gem.

I really don’t blame you.
You think I’m bad with this, wait til you see me try and identify an actor.

They did seem smaller. They make the viewer really have to study the photo hard to make sense of it. Excellent stuff👏

Gorgeous. How tiny are those bricks?

Seen one on the metal stanchion at the station I get the train home from. Thought it was maybe a sight for the fare dodger police to use.

Those words strike fear in me too, but they’re usually uttered by one of the grown-up children looking for something they’ve not needed for fifteen years.

Smash Hits is what the 1980s NME dreamed of being but was too scared.

I’m clocking bits here and there and thoroughly enjoying it.

Ouch. Pesky things, those steps.

Good to see 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 by Midnight Oil ranking so highly 🙂
But surprised it wasn’t Blue Sky Mining.

I’m in the early stages of writing some songs for a fictional band who are influenced by the Damned for a project with a fellow author. They may get recorded. I was toying with the validity of using that bass sound and style for one of their songs…

I’ve listened to ‘Strawberries’ for the past couple of days; found it in the ‘compilation’ part of Spotify. What a brilliant album that is! I love the way they meld melancholy with positivity at times. Ta for the intro!
