Two people outside the post office in the pissing rain and wind huddled under a child’s umbrellas complaining about immigrants getting benefits.
Get a grip England you degenerate little cesspool.

Been to a club to see Mr Scruff play records - a phrase I’ve not uttered in 25 years - and my favourite bit was people doing daft robot dancing to Kraftwerk’s ‘The Robots’. Daft and obvious but joyously so.
Also The Headhunters ‘If You’ve Got It, You’ll Get It’.
Need a lie down now.

Working at my studio desk in school today and the Y3 students made a portrait of me out of cardboard. The likeness is uncanny.

This morning: Electric Wizard.
I passed on this when it was first released because I couldn’t bring myself to buy a stoner rock album by a band called Electric Wizard with a soft focus horned goblin smoking a bong on the cover.

Heard the sad news about Sly Dunbar on the school run of all places. I don’t even really know where to start with his immeasurable contribution to music and, well, everything, but watching him at work is best.
Here’s Sly and Robbie in action with Black Uhuru at the Rainbow in Finsbury Park in 1981
