Got a plumber to turn up. He fixed my boiler. Didn’t charge me the earth.

Also, is the bloke from
Will and Grace the most famous not famous person. Like if there’s a cheap piece of crap tv series made in America with absolutely no-one you know, he’ll usually be the lead.

I think I might be at that point. I’d quite like the pilot to survive one of these just once. The pilot always gets a tree through him and dies in the first night. Always.

It’s like the cast took acting lessons from an AI that had only listened to the Archers.

I will watch almost anything which starts with a plane crash. Just love a plane crash survival story. Love all of them. But Nine Bodies in a Mexican Morgue really is a big bag of balls.

It has been pointed out to me that Ship’s Piano isn’t on Spotify. To rectify this slightly I’ve made the album completely free on Bandcamp.

I’ve also made the vinyl TEN POUNDS on www.hefnet.com (plus a little postage)

Ship’s Piano gig on 21st October

The pub or bar makes me seen. Its kind of performative and egotistical but it stops me doom
Scrolling and wasting time. I genuinely get more done

Erm four birds to a pint maybe? It may look like the workings of a functioning alcoholic, and it is, but actually it really slows down my drinking . A pint can last 90minutes

Don’t you hate standing at gigs? I hate standing at gigs. At my gig on the 21st October you can sit in nice red chairs. It’s on a boat five minutes from Canary Wharf station. I play all of my record The Ship’s Piano.

I suffer very badly from anxiety and recently it’s been quite acute. I think that I thought Setraline was more an anti-depressant until recently. I’d be interested in knowing of any side affects with this drug. You could message me if you wanted but also don’t feel obliged at all.
