Entered school when I was two
Well here we are again, last day of January (for those counting the seconds).
Is this the 50s or 1999
Hey. Monday morning, de-caff time. Life is exciting and stimulating enough without putting electrodes across my heart thank you very much.
One day I'm gonna lift the cover
Frozen solid here. Coldest morning ever (this year) but plenty of rain and extra degrees on the way. Hooray for the balmy delights of 10 degrees Centigrade ! Shorts on for Sunday! 2 shows today with movies and Danny Boyle talking T2 Trainspotting. Always one of our toppermost filmmakers, every c...
Oh darling, why'd you talk so fast?

Well there you are. And a fine good morning to you all. All well here, situation normal, no dramas so far. Enjoying the Trainspotting crew on Chris right now-Danny Boyle is one clever man. I’m talking to him on Friday (on BBC 5 Live) and really looking forward to renewing our acquaintance.

It’s a Worldwide Symphony
And good morning to all. Getting there…cranking through the gears, switching to automatic pilot any minute…Spring for you maybe, still winter here. Enjoyed Ruby Wax yesterday.
Psych 1 Psych 2
Giving thanks for the continued health of my boiler. I know much of the UK is basking in mild air from balmy climes but in the poor old south east we shiver in frosty winds, gathering round coal braziers and sharing blankets. To make it feel better I'm thinking of it as some old fashioned hugge....
