Martin Stephenson and the Daintees wonderful 40th anniversary version of Boat To Bolivia and their new album Cuckoos. Great surprise to find a bonus drawing by the man himself in the post. You won't get that on Spotify.

I went out yesterday with the intention of getting a new pair of trainers but came home with this classic by @tomrobinson.com instead. It reminded me of when my big sister kindly gave me 20 pounds 40 years ago to get new shoes and I returned with Queen's Greatest Hits. Old habits die hard.
