Can’t think of a terrible novelty song beginning with J so a quick Dr Who update. I am now 132 episodes in (in the modern era) and have covered the first 5 with Jodie Whitaker (series 11). And I have to say, no problem so far. The Capaldi ones were fine, much better than I remembered and the early Whitaker ones have been entertaining. I am now…[Read more]

It’s P time. I have never met Napoleon.

Good!

All milkmen are good. Bennie Hill was a real milkman. But the reason is, that was our family business from the 1830s to the 1950s.  Milk cart pulled by a horse! The actual milk cart is in Hayes museum with our name on the side. And bottles. Not the horse though.

Crazy frog for C?

@leggy was asking me where I got a Classics .apk file from. I downloaded it from somewhere but can’t for the life of me remember where from. This was about 4 months ago, so not from Rovio (which is not possible anyway as we all know).  Anyone else got a clue?  May not even be available on different continents. I do have Classics on my phone but n…[Read more]

Steely Dan O.  No padding here.

Bunnybunny or bunbun for short! Good to hear from you! A musical ally, I feel, at least to some degree which is nice.  Many years ago my wife had a bad reaction to some meds, thought she could see a bat. Scary for me. Turned out it was a bat. Anyway, good news on the knee front it would appear.   Re: Queen.  Night at the Opera album is fan…[Read more]

Er, I think you’ll find you started this @brianN. Shouldn’t have poked the bear. I’m just hoping I haven’t poked a Coldplay fan.

12 mile route march for Twiggy today. She had the last laugh, skipping fresh as a daisy to the very end. A perfect autumn day in the forests and by the lakes and we didn’t see a soul for three hours. But why does she always jump tummy deep into a bog in the last half mile?

Pressing on with N. Donald Fagan again. I’m assuming when you said lame @brianN you were referring to @hunnybunny‘s knee. This music is as unlame as it comes. Lame=Coldplay. ‘Nuff said.

Sigh.

No L in the SD catalogue so I’m skipping to M for this banger

Didn’t even know I had a Mooncake trophy, @brianN. You are welcome to it.

Not me, as of now.

Is there gas in the car? Yes there’s gas in the car. Time for |K.

Hmm, looks like the mowing season may be drawing to a close here. October in 2 minutes time, heating on for the first time, Twiggy going for her evening walk in the dark looking like she’s going to a rave in her flashing collar. And…believe it or not, Christmas produce in the supermarket. Arrrggghhhh!  That makes me snarky. Bah humbug.

Looks like I’m committed now so I’ll keep going with J.

For I it’s the snappily titled International Geophysical Year from Donald Fagan who is of course, 50% of Steely Dan.
