Actually, looking at some of your other prints, I reckon he might like the Mummer Morris Dancers! Some brilliant stuff there, I love your lino prints.

Aww, it appears to have sold out. Are any more in the offing? I think I know someone who would like one of those....

Spooks on the BBC: “We have to climb onto the roof, through a skylight and plug this thumb drive into the Chinese server.”

Spooks on Chinese TV: “We’ve just bought the British data centre. Job done.”

My friend Sascha is a professional musician and he's lost a viola bow on the way to Heathrow. Please signal boost to help him get it back.

Lost viola bow on the way from Honor Oak Station to Heathrow Terminal 2. The bow slid from its bow case somewhere along the way, possibly on the train. TFL contacted already.
It weighs 68.2 grams and has got a stamped DODD next to the frog. If any info on this, please pm me.

I had such a brilliant, and very emotional, time seeing them on Monday in London. And I got to say hello to Nick, which was lovely!

First Record of The Weekend is the Psychedelic Furs' classic first album from 1980. Guess why I've chosen this one? I've just booked a trip to India for March! Any excuse to play this brilliant record.

First Record of The Weekend is the fantastic Noise Meditations from Bike. This Brazilian band were one of the highlights of the OSP Psych Weekender at the Strongroom Bar last weekend. This is a brilliant album - noisy psychedelic and otherworldly. Love it!

Subtly downgrade a band.

That's really useful!

So, yet again the BBC News acts as a Reform mouthpiece. Chris "Fascist" Mason criticises Ed Davey for accusing the beeb of Reform bias, which is followed by a other 10 minute love-in of Reform's awful deportation announcement. Disgusting propaganda.

Ah, shame that's an evening when I teach a yoga class, otherwise I'd have liked to come along and see what these meetings are like - I've been intruiged for some time now.
