I'll never get over Richard Briers being 40, doing a well paid, secure design job, making fun toys, being married to a 29 year old creative, devoted sexpot, living in a large suburban London home with a massive garden and thinking everything is rubbish at the start of A Good Life

Man, I just read a quote from Carrie Fisher that's going to be burned into my brain forever.

Could do a playlist of all the Chris Rea songs about roads and cars and it would be seventeen hours long at least ha! :)

TONITE @ midnight London time. Soho Garage show on Soho Radio.
Geography is the theme, lots of songs about towns, cities, village greens and roads (no Chris Rea though).
Here is a map of Soho from the 1740’s @sohoradio is highlighted in green.
