Loved it too , and never understood the whole argument about needing to have sympathy for characters in order to invest in them or find their story compelling.

This too shall pass , as they say . My 17 year old daughter has been away this weekend and I have not had a single message from her . Treasure these times .

When I’m getting a tea at the petrol station I use two tea bags . #thuglife

Amazing album !!

Great choice, a brilliant read !!

Agreed . If my phone was a newspaper I would have flung it across the room .

“Londinium” by Archive . Acoustic reverie /hip hop banger / instrumental suite . A glorious slice of buried treasure

A wise man once described this album as “the sound the universe would make if it cut itself shaving “ and I don’t think that can be improved on !

This was filmed in the town in Ireland I grew up in , I remember it well . Got to watch a scene being rehearsed one evening 😁

So that’s 6-7 years of God-tier brilliance, before that 3 years of being pretty damned good and after that another 6 years of being damn good and often brilliant. That’s more than enough and more than most .

Well I’m definitely Irish then because I’m taking it without asking !

I always enjoy your year end list , find myself mostly nodding in agreement and addling the ones I haven’t heard to a playlist . Thanks for this and Happy New Year 🥳

I’d like to introduce you fine people to my beautiful Maine Coon . Her name is Belle and she sends Christmas greetings to you from Ireland 😊

Well I guess Landless are no longer a well kept secret 🤫

Yes !!! An absolutely beautiful album ❤️

The scene where he returns to the house and starts ranting at the kids etc , Donna Reed looks at him and , just like that , sees the dark place he’s in … that’s almost unwatchable it’s so bleak . It’s where the movie writes the cheque that it cashes at the climax .

Close but no cigar ! They had sex 😁
