Notwithstanding the assassination attempts, spying and espionage Russia is undertaking… the parallels leading up to WWII and Russia in 2025 are so blindingly obvious those refusing to see it are those willing to see the destruction of the EU and UK.
These people are enemies of democracy.

It is right that, in close social situations, one wears a face covering if it helps mitigate the spread of influenza in the height of an outbreak.
I find those against such mitigations are indignant to human life in general.

I finally got my sticky mittens on the Rhino High Fidelity pressing of Buckingham Nicks.
It is a nice pressing, track spacers are quieter than the standard, but can’t hear much difference otherwise.
A pain to get in and out of the sleeve though.

I haven’t partaken in record store day for a while now but when I saw Bill Evans Portrait at the Penthouse available last week I couldn’t resist.
Usually sells out on the day so consider myself lucky to stumble across a copy.

Nigel F has gone from ‘I didn’t say that’ to ‘I didn’t say that to an individual’ to ‘I didn’t mean it in a nasty way’ to gong full Trump in attacking the BBC.
But he isn’t a racist.

Spoke with a paramedic who said this years flu rates mixed with Covid is increasing severity of illness thus length of time in hospital.
Get a flu jab folks, if not for you then for your loved ones with co-morbidities.

I’ve switched out the Rega Elys for the Nd3 cartridge… the sound is amazing however one small issue… when the cueing arm is extended fully at runout the stylus still touches heavier vinyl or if the vinyl is slightly convexed.
Rega didn’t give much tolerance, have ordered a tonearm spacer.

3 years ago today, we lost Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac at the age of 79. From "Don't Stop," "Everywhere," You Make Loving Fun," "Say You Love Me," and "Little Lies," and oh, about a dozen more, her contributions are the heartbeat of the band's magic.

I am getting really fucking pissed off with the gatekeepers (receptionists) at our #NHS GP practice… their attitude is one of protection of surgery budget over welfare of the patient.
You are receptionists not GPs you don’t get to make medical decisions.

Which are you more angry about?
25% of the £41.8bn of pandemic funding fraudulently obtained, £10.5bn.
£3bn to take children out of poverty, 60% of which are from working, tax paying, households.

@lbc.co.uk Nick, I have a modern boiler connected to 40 year old rads and pipes… I am achieving a wry high % of efficiency. It isn’t the ancillary items that are the problem, more how condensing boilers are used.

@LBC Nick, 5000 people per week signing up to sickness benefits has already been debunked, 2/3rds to 75% of that number are people being migrated from ESA (already sick) onto Universal Credit. Stop allowing misleading states on your show, it discredits you.

Policies I would like to see Rachel Reeves enact at this #Budget2025
1. Scrap the OBR. George Osborne’s austerity monitor Chancellor’s have become wedded to.
2. Adjust council tax based on square footage… if people can afford to extend properties by 50/60% they can afford the same uplift in c/tax

I think people over 75 who are admitted to hospital due to age related illness should automatically receive attendance allowance, putting the elderly through hoops to get the support they require is just cruel.

Have been trying to organise my dads photos from his time serving in Cyprus during 1958/9. He seems to have more photos of Lebanon though as he and colleagues would holiday over there staying at the Saint Georges Hotel… famed for hosting the Hollywood greats such as Taylor & Burton.

Yet again Reform complains about low wages yet now wants to cut the minimum wage for the lowest and youngest in society.

Nigel Farage is speaking utter bollocks. He claims the worker has had it so bad on low wages whilst business has had it to good in one breath and then claims Reform will be the party of Business in another breath.

He is a liar, a fraud.

Screwed up my meds again… wondered why my head was swimming and I was in a self destructive mood.
Turns out double dosing on one type of med and not taking another has serious consequences.
