‘Some definitions’ doing a lot of heavy lifting there (as I think the young people say these days!)

On the other hand, Donald Trump is 21 years older than me. Always good to compare down as well as up!

From the private collection of one billionaire to the private collection of another billionaire.

Best Fesshole ever

Ouch! 😆

OMD

Great quote from Ringo about his new album: "I’m calling it Long Long Road, because I’ve been on a long long road." No arguing with that logic.

Um... why on earth does it have dazzle camouflage!?!?

And Drop The Pilot is near Dallas!

Sadly Love And Affection doesn’t have a location

holy shit

Thanks James. Think I'll need a stiff drink or three before waching that!

In that case, let me introduce you to my Discogs shop... 😄

Chap digging through my Pink Floyd section looks up to tell me that they played Wish You Were Here at his Gran’s funeral #sellingvinyl

Still these days, but with perhaps less running up and down!

First toddler dancing (vigorous running up and down with some hip shaking and arm waving) to Hot Love by T.Rex. #sellingvinyl

A neighbouring trader is selling multicoloured muppet-like hand puppets. She has one on her hand, which talks to the children. I look over. There is no one at her stall, and she is staring into middle distance. The puppet, however, is singing along to the Talking Heads I'm playing #sellingvinyl

A local record shop owner comes and says hi. We have a long chat, and conclude than anyone who buys and sells vinyl, either for a living or (like me) a hobby, has a form of addiction. #sellingvinyl

I play Bow Down Mister by Jesus Loves You. It goes into the upbeat dance section. A ladt comes over and reminisces about when she was young and would go clubbing Friday night and crawl into bed in the early hours of Monday morning, then go to work. Just. #sellingvinyl

I'm #sellingvinyl at Tobacco Factory Sunday market today, if you want to come and say hi.

It’s already happened!

I’ve always thought that if aliens did land on earth and adopt the human form in order to walk freely among us, they would look like John Denver.

John Cougar Mellencamp’s Jack and Diane on telly right now. Just a reminder of how depressing this song actually is: “Oh yeah, life goes on, long after the love of living has gone”. Thanks John.

I also saw a tweet that explained that wasn't actually what the stats say. They take an average of the stats which includes countries where women are treated appallingly. Someone has decided that they wanted the narrative of that headline to be out there. But it isn't actually true.

Why are you making this about Labour? Surely the Conservative Govt made retrospective changes of this nature? I seem to recall a lot of fuss about the Windrush generation, for example (I'm far from an expert on this subject, to be clear!).

It depends what you are trying to aim for.

Walking to my meeting, I stop for tea and a pastry in a nice café by a canal. After 10 minutes, I noticed a dead rat the size of a small dog floating in the water in front of me.

Welcome to London.

Petition: Nationalise water companies to make water a non profit publicly owned asset To make water a non profit making national asset that ensures we have a secure water infrastructure that ensures our water security for future generations.

petition.parliament.uk/petitions/75... I’m not sure if this is even possible but as somebody somewhere said “you can have clean water and you can have privatised water but you can’t have clean privatised water”.

But imagine if it actually was true…

I see a friend from the village. Lovely fella. We both comment that the train is very full and that we are glad we have seats reserved, thereby implicitly confirming to each other that we don’t have to sit together for the 2hr journey.
