A Nick Lowe song that captured my heart for a while, those lyrics are superb.

In my view the best run of tunes (and albums) of his career. Agree he did move to suit his age, though one could argue - so did his audience which includes me.

Nick Lowe figured out he was, in all likelihood, going to age and began writing and tailoring his material with that in mind. And he’s done really good work.

The next election will be a coalition vs Reform. With many folks the disaffection of politics, the perceived immigrant issue and the easy (bollocks) policies of vile Nige are pulling them in via social media en masse.

Agree with the points here, find some easy wins if you can.

The White Horse underage gathering (on Friday) was the stuff of legend. Saw it often as we lived nearby, my kids just caught the end of it.

I went to the same school as SL and was blown away by a tear jerking obit he wrote for a teacher. Great guy!

This album was a return of form that many would throw family under the train for. I can pick holes in a track or two but it’s ace all round. It got a top 50 in Q mag.

Delighted for you, Carpets ace - but I bet you could do both. I’m 60 plus and did full Hives gig and parkrun next day.

Great use of “weapons grade” there. I use it often to the amusement of Canadians in particular.

Does anyone know who performed please? This relationship cropped up on word in your ear pod when Roger Armstrong said Jake and Dave asked what Nick Lowe’s A side should be - Heart of the city vs So it goes

Nick Lowe tells a funny story about how he was unsure about CH and side stepped producing. In his words a total own goal.

Fully agree on all this, so pleased. There’s a great pic of that smile, assume it’s from tonight!

I watched ice hockey a couple of times in Sweden where they happily belt out a bit of Gary Glitter several times in the match

Beware the Guardian review is 2 stars.

The Intruder review – the daftest thriller of the entire year
The only thing that stops you counting the cliches in this French drama about a sinister au pair is the woefully dim lighting. It’s so obvious that it barely feels worth the energy of laughing at its ...

You had until the suggestion of prison. Our prison population doesn’t need these marketing guttersnipes to mix with.

This is having a real impact on some products already. If it has a magnet, the price is going up.

I recall the exact moment it was announced on Radio 1, I squealed with delight and ran across the park outside our house.
