How a legend oughta be
Hey What’s happening with you? Ice scraping agogo here, sensible shoes, thick socks, big scarves. Still cold, time for porridge. Loved the 80s Tunesday, we had SO many remixes and 12” singles suggested it seemed like every song in the whole decade clocked in at 8’ 23”. .
I was the one with the car
De-icing has happened. Emergency drop-off at the station because the underground is stuffed - that’s happened too. So now all that remains is to make coffee, porridge and find the winter shades (same as the summer shades actually but working harder today). Enjoying the new Jamie Cullum...
I changed my mind, looking fine
Well that was a weekend. Hope it was fine for you, hope you didn’t get on the wrong train and end up 100 miles adrift of where you needed to be at midnight. I’m not saying that happened to me but it might have done. Only a special kind of fool would do that, I mean really! Anyway later on…
What a feeling
Well hey. 'Perfectly Normal Friday’ (as it it’s known here) is with us and what a fine pair of shows are lined up for you. Movies with Robert Zemeckis talking Allied starring Brad Pitt and Marion Cotillard. This is the man who did the Back To The Future trilogy, Forrest Gump, Who Framed Roger...
The Aintree Iron
> Well hey there all you fab cats of the blog. Here we go with a Thursday full of cool things for you. Well the radio will be fine, the visit to the dental hygienist maybe less so. I wonder if there was a secret meeting where it was decided that the hygienist took all the nasty work...
It don’t mean a thing...
Wednesday already and I feel few treats coming on. Small ones, obviously, nothing too calorific but something that says ‘not bad so far.’ A sparkling water say, or a small digestive. That should do it. Enjoyed Tunesday, enjoyed Izaak jumping in the Antarctic waters, enjoyed the confessor who dre...
Needn't be handsome
> And good morning to you. Well what a delight John Simpson was. I've spoken to him before but always 'down the line' when he's been elsewhere. Sometimes that's been a war zone somewhere - Iraq, Afghanistan - or sometimes he's just been stuck in another studio.
She probably lives in Tahiti
Oh hey well it seems very Monday here. Dark wet and in need of a cheery decaf. Hope the weekend was a cheery one. We had a sunny Saturday followed by an Angus Sunday. We cheered on the runners in the Southwold 10K who braved the inclement weather and gave the rest of us many hundred reasons to...
blastin' and laughin'
Well there you are! Friday clothes please, I’m going for an old pair of orange corduroy slacks. Class eh? Anyway it's a top Friday of radio loveliness here with Eddie Redmayne to talk Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them and Amma Assante to talk A United Kingdom on the film show.
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
Hey ho. Thursday dawning and it's looking rather average in these parts, with a promise of more of the same averageness for quite a while. Average should be fine of course but, along with ‘satisfactory’ now means slightly disappointing.
