Never mind. Send him round to Keith's :-)

Yesterday's acquistions - 10 CDs and 3 DVDs. How 'analogue' is that?


Wot, no vinyl?


Nope - '£1 clearance' disks bought for me by a young friend, hence 'Mattias
Hellberg' (???) playing atm (for as long as I can stand it, which might be
for not much longer.....)

Ah! Coasters.



Anyway, don't send that **** round here - sticks 9p a pack on my ciggies
and
thinks 50 quid is going to deter Middle England from spending 75K on a 4
wheel drive!!??

Whenever he puts a tax on something to "deter" it, he means he has
spotted yet another revenue stream.


What's arsing me off with these clowns is how they only *tickle* problems
instead of solving them....


Yebbut, if they solve them, they lose the cash.


(I *invented* 4 wheel drives in London - I wuz punting about London in a
Mercedes* G-Wagen *long* before the Sloane Rangers got 'em!! ;-)

I'm still doing my 4 wheel drive thing round London - when I'm not
doing my one wheel drive thing, that is.


And a SWB Land-Rover - even the taxi drivers gave way for that!! :-)


Best taxi shifter I ever owned was a battered VW Kombi on Dutch
plates. That spare wheel on the front speaks volumes in the
intimidation game.




*Steyr Puch with a Mercedes badge on it actually.....



Does it also have a "My other car is a Trabant" sticker?


No, but it did have my KG6545 number plate on it! (I wuz going through my
Naff Period - a bit like Pinky is now.... ;-)


Mega naff. Did you also have a little china "Keith's Room" plaque on
your bedroom door?

I went into a record shop in Stevenage in (I think) 1974 and asked the
blokey if he had anything by Queen. He shot me a funny look (it was
different back then) and said 'Who..???'

He came back out with the Brighton Rock album (vinyl, of course) which my
eldest son has to this day - it is 4 years older than he is!! :-)

I've just realised I still think of Queen as a "new" band. U2 have
barely appeared on the radar yet. Scary...

Believe me (always - despite what 'one other' here will tell you, I don't
*ever* deal in 'untruths') I have heard of them, but wouldn't recognise them
if they stood on the doorstep and I don't know their music at all, although
I must have heard it...??

I *do* know what Jesse Harris And The Ferdinandos sound like.....

(Playing right now and it's gonna have to perk up a bit to stay on!!)


OK, track 3 is getting a wee bit better....

OK, forget that - I found the *gem* in the pile (so far):

Holy Sons - 'I Want To Live A Peaceful Life'

*Exceptional* and very *real*!! (Well, it is on my LW2A3!! ;-)

http://www.holysons.com/

I wuz having a little drowse to it just now (as you do*) and it had me out
of my bloody skin!! For a moment, I thought I was *surrounded* by people at
one stage!!


*What...?? I ain't getting anything like 6 hours sleep these last few nights
and I gotta go do compost shredding in a while, while the sun's so nice!!

I have just reached Willem de Fesch (1687-1761)

So much music, so little time:-)
