And finally
Seasons greetings from your Drivetime family. Last show, last blog of 2016. Given that I HAVE HAD NO SLEEP it will be a miracle if don't fall asleep on air.
Tu pure, o Principessa
I look forward to those distant days when blog writing is a daytime, sunlit experience. When a cooling glass of dandelion and burdock is required (never) and the cheesecloth shirt/Panama hat combo is advisory(also never).
Pulling on the reins
Have your solstice bells rung yet?I know mine have. Hooray! Tomorrow will be (imperceptibly) lighter and cheerier and better in every department. And if that isn’t reason enough for a celebratory cup of tea and mince pie, I don’t know what is. Tonight is the Drive Time Christmas Night Out which...
Stay bravely green in wintertime
Jolly well done Rick. Lovely tunes didn’t you think? Nothing could be simpler really, nothing more old fashioned than a few tunes around the piano but when it’s RW at the controls, we end up with 20 minutes of delightful festival chill-out.
One Day When We Are Older

It’s gonna be a big one
Early morning birds singing in the dark here, so I’m pretending it’s Spring for a few hours at least.
Ah, sing it children
Well now good morning from a quiet office, commuter free. No one pushing me up against the window, shoving me with their suitcase or breathing their swift-fag-before-work fumes. Not yet anyway. Star Wars Rogue One was XXXXXXX and very XXXXX with unexpected XXXXXX which are quite XXXXXXXXX. When ...
Back to the rollin' pin
Blog on the move! Walking! Jostling! Barging! Such is the delight of commuting to work today. Although on the way to Star Wars. I know. It's hardly work is it? Even I feel guilty. Then it's a Book Club meeting to decide what we read next. Movies, books then radio. Hah! Not bad really.
