Hey it’s Friday already and that whole 4 day week (if you had one) feels good. Monday morning might not feel so dandy but for now we are motoring into the weekend with our hats at jaunty angles. And a spring in our step, even if it sets of a twinge or two…
Still laden with garlic, I wandered to the Sam Smith gig for Jo Whiley last night (top shiny dress Jo! and what a winning charmer Sam is. I hadn’t seen him live before but that’s a tight show he has there. And just one album of songs! He has successfully conquered young and the ageing so he’s around for awhile I think. Child 2 knew all the words, I called and swayed convincingly.
Movies at 2 with Willem Defoe as the guest then some full-throttled ARF with a launch pad built in 1971. It’s decimalisation day for the UK (17/6 meaning 87.5 pence, 50 guineas meaning £52.50 etc. What a party trick this is). Spaghetti Junction is opened and a nation gasped as Harvey Smith the showjumper becomes Harvey Smith the V-sign waver. Different times…What songs take your fancy then?
Till Monday then.
