The Police… Synchronicity

Such a good album. I still have lines buzzing round my head on the regular. Like “there’s a little black spot on the sun today / that’s my soul up there” from King Of Pain.

Flashback… a privilage to see Wagner’s Parsifal finally make it to #Glyndebourne 91 years after John Christie dreamed of staging it. A huge 6hrs 20mins (inc. intervals). 24.06.2025.

Three special days with Podge (Chippy G&D Rowde) and Ol Brown (Bulldozer)… Love you guys!

Credits… Glyndebourne.

Flashback… MBV at Wembley Arena. Mindblowingly powerful and beautiful. Never felt sound like it. Goosebumps remembering. 20.11.2025.

Flashback… the incredible Kim Deal. My favourite album of the last few years - Nobody Loves You More - reaching another level live. And Dave Grohl guesting on Gigantic was priceless. Magical night! 20.06.2025.

Flashback… the extraordinary John Bramwell. No more than 50 people in the hull of the Golden Hinde ship. The sound? Utterly unique - like being in the belly of a guitar. Very special. 07.09.2025.

Credits: Toni Bond & Nick Herridge.

Blue and white creamy matcha drink from Klear Labs

How could a blues fan pass this up… and what a creation! One of the smoothest, light, lifting, lip smacking drinks. 🔵⚪️

In case you were wondering… blue spirulina, matcha, l-theanine, coconut/almond mix milk.

Yes Brian! 👏😁

Originals were amazing but these just hit differently, even more beautifully…

Sinead O’Connor… Nothing Compares 2 U.

Roberta Flack… The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face.

Jeff Buckley… Hallelujah.

Soft Cell… Tainted Love

The Stone Roses

The Stone Roses eponymous debut is utterly glorious. It builds, ebbs, builds and peaks with a track that would grace any album’s finale (This Is The One), then takes you higher (I Am The Resurrection), and then casually throws in one of the greatest (Fools Gold).

Sky At Night

Wonderful, touching and deeply personal. A special album.

Brussels Sprouts.

Such a good album.

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

Happy Lancashire Day all you Red Rose lovelies and allies!
🎶🪩🕺💃🍻🍾🥂🎉🤩💛

Thats’s pretty…

Treasure the little things.

Guillermo del Toro quote "...think about wealth for me for example. A wealthy man that has enough..."

"not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite somebody to beer..."

"...you're rich. If you have, whatever-"

"- yachts and planes and islands and you STILL need more? You're not rich."

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

Lilith (1964)

Hidden gem. Wee independent place. Good price for central London.

Koia, Notting Hill Gate has a really good osteopathy option for remedial massage.

If I say, "ketchup is the worst," that's just an opinion. If I say, "people who like ketchup are idiots," that's bullying. If I say, "because I don't like ketchup, no one should be allowed to have it," that's oppression. If I say, "people who eat ketchup are dangerous and must be controlled," that's racism, bigotry, or fascism. If I say, "anyone who defends ketchup should be silenced or locked up," that's the destruction of free speech and democracy.

It’s a disgrace and criminal, driven by the owners. Any privately run public service, including elderly care, should not be allowed to cause poverty, illness or abuse.

Minimum SLA’s, price caps, profit caps… there must be a better way to avoid vampire economics.
