    We’ve only got a few more hours of absolutely top/prime/beeyoutiful laundry drying weather before the storms set in. Get out of bed and make the most of it you lazy mongrels.

    I have finished my last uni assignment. Hopefully enough to pass the unit, I really didn’t put much effort into it, I’ve completely lost interest!

    It’s a terrible day to choose to have the oven on, but I have lamb roast for dinner & can now play games for the rest of the day guilt free. Horizon Zero Dawn here I come.

        Maybe windy.com ? link I use that for radar - its sooo much better cos easily scrollable and you get a 1 hour replay. BOM is still good for forecasts etc. I reckon.

        The witch is right, I use the Windy app. I gave up on the BOM years ago because I got sick of it bricking my phone all the time.

          Yeah that’s sensible. Boot cushions can be tried around the house first if you’re ever ready? Though I wouldn’t blame you for sticking to sandals/sneakers forever

      That’s gotta be one of the top ten haunting songs ever written. That and his Alabama. Remember listening to it for the first time when the Harvest album came out - socked me in the guts then and still does now.

        The first time I ever heard that song I was deep in the old life and it absolutely destroyed me. I learned it but couldn’t bring myself to perform it.

        I feel like after all these years its OK to play it again.

          Yeah, feels. Maybe think of it as a Rite of Passage - a ceremony that shuts the door on an old life and opens the door to a new one. Traditionally accompanied by much music and good food and celebrations in general. An open mike seems to me to be a suitable venue. Let us here know when and we’ll come and celebrate with you.

        There was the reef thing upstairs and the elephant.

        We didn’t make it to the Lego Star Wars section but that’s alright because they didn’t scan our tickets and we got Enter Whenever tickets valid until the end of January, so we can still go in free another time

    Starting to digitise me vinyl. Most of it is sort of 1998-2004 electronic.

    But ran into a 1962 recording (so 63yr old record!) of a memorial concert thing my ol’ boy has from his old school. Pretty impressive they could fit 58 minutes on a single record. Thought it was going to be a bunch of kids making shit noises but it was actually very very polished (and very professionally recorded). The funny thing is that they overdubbed applause after each song, like canned laughter, but seriously over the top clapping lol and it’s the same sample every time.

    So I’m going to sample it and try and chuck it in a choon I think to keep that energy alive today.
