So, Private Music by Deftones is an absolutely stonkingly immense album. All big guitars and right angles and the swoon and sparkle of Chino's vocals, like listening to the night sky open up and twinkle & burn in the dark. Fuck I love music so much 🎵🎶❤️❤️

A fair solution.

Salisbuy based people? Is it best visited at a weekend or is there still as much life and such during a midweek visit?

Watching the #Sumowrestling from the Albert Hall, and as good as it is (these lads don't hang about or go half speed) am imagining how funny it would be in a 1970s Indoor League setting hosted by Fred Truman.

Fucking hell, they should be paraded and shamed throughout the puppet village and pelted with stale oreos.

All this appearance of Yokozua, but where's Mr Fuji with his evil bucket of salt? #londonsumo

Imagine seeing him wearing that down the kebab shop later.

Anyway today's important news is that I've purchased the new deftones CD from HMV, so rather excited to listen to that later. Now supper and sumo wrestling on the iPlayer.

Let that be an salutary and hopefully not crouton based lesson to you.

Poetry is very much like soup. It should involve no lumps and never be put up your bum.

If you need that I fear you've really overcomplicated your house or need urgent work on your descriptive writing skills.

Charles Dickens can fuck right off the steaming great....*Wrestles irate and opinionated opossum away from my keyboard*. Also the more maps you have the front of your novel the more my soul dies inside.

It's all scoring 11 on the fuckupometer. I blame Kate Bush for people seeing it as this great romance.

Lovely hour or so just now listening to Handel's Solomon on CD and finishing reading the delightful Disco Witches of Fire Island.

Well for a mere £2.46 with sauce and 4 of yer choice of toppings, an Asda nachos box really is corking value for Sunday night supper purposes. Paired very well with a bottle of Hall & Woodhouse's Sainsburys TTD Mosaic Pale Ale.

I'm still livid about the cancellation of Between the Covers which was some of the only literary discussion on the box and allowed actual critical opinions.
