Enjoying an OASIS-aided bounce, RICHARD ASHCROFT returns with a strong solo album Lovely tunesmithery, adorned with strings and samples: the title track is up there with Bittersweet Symphony in terms of memorable anthems.

Fans of Ash or Richard Ashcroft, or Buzz Magazine, or me (hi mum) can read my little reviews of these two acts' latest efforts below... (spoiler: they're both cracking albums)

Watched it again the other day. It's so wonderfully camp.

And I'm sure Trump would see Ming as an inspirational leader.

I think this stems from an artist 'capturing' what they're drawing. Like my meeting notes might 'capture the essence' of what was discussed. Like much business speak, it's unnecessarily wordy.

Cow tipping is cruel because it makes them think they're good waitresses.

That's reminded me of a doll I saw for sale in Thailand in 2012. Lined up in a normal shop alongside other dolls. 😬

Interesting. My follower numbers aren't THAT different, but my engagement on here is substantially lower. Not sure why. Maybe fewer bots or something.

But the QUALITY of engagement is higher here, I would say.

I'll never admit that I'm still the one who keeps stopping my wife's 'Man, I Feel Like a Woman' CD, because I've got pausable Shaniability.
