Got to pay your dues if you wanna sing the blues
Warm Friday greetings from the kitchen (grapefruit juice and coffee with a suggestion of porridge later). Nigel's pie hit the spot yesterday with all BBC staff lining up for their treat. It was like a scene from Oliver! with Nige playing Harry Secombe and your host as Mark Lester's Oliver. And ...
Just remember that ant
Right then. A few tasks before showtime. Child 3 has returned from his Geography field trip with enough laundry to fill a house and keep the washing machine on active service till the weekend.
You're straight down the line
Well hey. How's Wednesday with you (just to be clear, not a political question more of a weather and attitude one)? Wednesday here is an early screening (can't remember precisely) some moody, hand-wringing writing in a cafe, a Folk Awards meeting (it's that time again), child 3 returning from a...
Trying to catch your heart
Well good morning groovers. Grey ol'Tuesday here, with a hint of sunshine if we behave nicely. Always try, even if provoked to do otherwise! The thing is with interviews is to be prepared, whichever direction they turn in. Some you win, some you don't but most chats with Mr Lydon will...
Taller than the barnyard, ten feet high
Well there you are then. Cloudy Monday here with the promise of extra tulips later. Hope your weekend was splendid and that all your carefully worked out plans were realised with style.

Round about now young Nigel is planning, prepping and checking his ingredients, testing his trial runs and wondering quite how disappointed Matt will be fish. He will spice up the ingredients, wax lyrical about the accompanying wines/beers and hope to disguise the cod. 'Look!' he'll say, 'some g...
You loosened the chains
See? Just when you thought the temps were heading relentlessly to double figures and the heating was off, back cones the chill, hail, sleet etc. And there are SO many wardrobe issues today.
I'm running towards nothing
Well like you I have had an evening meal, slept, showered and breakfasted. Last night I went to see a concert, had a small glass of wine and ate two chocolate mints (what a life!). I have NOT been dancing all night, I have not raided hundreds of thousands of pounds and I am not looking striking ...
J-J-J-J-J-Jive Talkin'
And good morning to you too. What's happening at your place? My place has a selection of 80s gear strewn casually about the furniture...now if only find my 1987 Top of the Pops suit all will be well. This is not pointless nostalgia you understand, this is all support for the mighty Sara Cox who ...
