Just a reminder that the Labour Party voted for this Brexit deal in 2020

You’re welcome 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
👏🏽"We must all now confront the reality that the Brexit deal significantly hurt our economy. We have to keep reducing frictions. We have to keep moving towards a closer relationship with the EU. And we have to be grown up about it. To accept that it will require trade-offs."👏🏽

Music to my ears. ~AA

Caravan - In The Land Of Grey And Pink (1971). This is a glorious record for any time of the day. My copy is a 2019 pressing and it’s fabulous, but it has reminded me that Steven Wilson did a remix which I now need to investigate

youtu.be/khrx-zrG460?... 'Every Day Is A Winding Road' Sheryl Crow (1996) Take pity on me, dear followers, stuck on a school bus with radio 1 blaring twice a day in the 1990s. I lived for the days when a decent song came on and this very 1960sish earworm was clearly the best. 1466/?

When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty? Will I be rich?
Here's what she said to me:

No.

Many thanks once again to those continue to follow this series. It's been greatly appreciated.

With just a few to go, I continue by raising the question - Is a lack of originality strangling modern music?

I’m partial to a bit of shithousery in a football game. This Chelsea v Arsenal match is however stretching my admiration for the form. There’s something every five minutes and it’s getting wearisome

The text on this screen is like an unreleased Fall song.
I'm enjoying reading it in Mark E Smith's voice.
What can it all mean??
I don't understand what is written on the screen in this photo, but it gives me life. Is it Dostoevsky?

Happy St Andrew’s Day, celebrating the patron saint who died horribly so Scotland could one day invent deep fried pizza. A fair trade, really.👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
