Tuesday. Feed your soul.
Or feed a fish. Stroke a cat. Say hello to a bird.

Ahh but it's good to remember you were once desirable. Or weird. Or weirdly desirable.

'Buffalo Stance' by Neneh Cherry is now added to my list. Song not so bad, but it's the way she says 'Woss ee loike?' and 'Kno wot I mean' in the break. I cringe just thinking about it.

Thinking of spoken bits that totally spoil a song - Mott The Hoople's 'Roll Away The Stone' is forever damned because of the silly 'There's a rockabilly party on Saturday night? Are you gonna be there? I got my invite. Gonna bring your records? Ooh will do!'
I mean WHY? Just why???

Introduce yourself using only one food you refuse to eat, one movie you'll never watch again and one song you can't stand.

Shellfish. Ugh. Snot & glop.

Short Circuit - first date nightmare.

Passengers - Elton John. Even thinking of this lurching abomination of a song makes me feel angry and sick.

I used to like talking to people at gigs, especially the smaller venues in London. I wasn’t very frightening ;)

To Hinchingbroke, and there with Mr. Sheply did look all over the house, and I do, I confess, like well of the alteracions, and do like the staircase, but there being nothing to make the outside more regular and modern, I am not satisfied with it.
