Sorry, dozed off for a while there. Anything I missed in the last 390 days?

Long weekend in Knaresborough gave perfect excuse to pop across and enjoy Harrogate (0) vs Crewe (1). Lovely misty autumn afternoon in the floodlights.

Just cantered through ‘Being Britney’ ahead of the main literary event of next week…key takeouts:

(1) reminder (as if needed) that people - and, it must be said, men - can be so cruel.

(2) I should rewatch crossroads (not that streaming services make it easy)

Also, struck by the sheer friendliness of everyone I encountered yesterday - bus drivers, transport users, shop workers and customers, market stall holders, West Brom security and catering staff, the home fans I nestled among…well played West Midlands 👏

Rather modest music haul from the trip to Birmingham - but quality over quantity. REM from sue ryder in king’s heath, Julie Ruin from Polar Bear in king’s heath, KLF / Timelords / JAMS from Swordfish in city centre - all recommended stops

West Brom (a), 0-0. Draw probably a fair result, although disappointed not to go in ahead at half time. Still, good to come out of a game like this not feeling frustrated at argyle playing so well and somehow coming out with nothing.
