Whenever I read the name Immanuel Kant my brain instantly descends to Bruce's Philosopher's Song by Monty Python.

I guess I'm around your age (I'm 64) & struggling to transition to
1. Getting much slower at an alarming rate
2. The realisation that I have to have rest or "walk only" days at least twice a week now.

Morels grew in my garden one year - we ate them and unfortunately they never came back

Love that headstock.
For unknown reasons I have never liked a sunburst finish on any guitar.

Brilliant, well done you.

Oh it was today! Congratulations!

I still have the Bill Grundy ep and the Robert Wyatt Shipbuilding

I've been getting them for months. Half of them look like fat blokes who've never used a gym in anger.

Did you get to meet Miss Hoolie, Archie, Spencer and the gang?

Hope you have a terrific race Louise. Looks like a lot of gear to carry! The most I ever carried in marathons was three SIS gels in my back pocket, swallowed at 10, 15 and 20 miles.

Is this one of those "find 10 things wrong with this picture" puzzles?

Ditto!

Congratulations Louise, are you still in the getting quicker years?

Magyar has won - amusingly enough, Magyar is Hungarian for Hungary

I don't post much political opinion but finally some good news in these terrible times. Orban has gone, and without claiming election fraud/interference (yet). EU almost back to consensus on Ukraine.
If only we could #rejoin
#Hungary #elections

Finally some good news in these shocking times.

I could have bought the 3 bed house we lived in in Portstewart for £18,000 back then, and could probably have afforded it on a student grant and a part time bar job!

I lived in Portrush (and Portstewart) when I went to Uni at Coleraine, 1983-87, I love that little seaside town. Used to walk my dog on those dunes & that beach

It's lovely but I'm annoyed with the pickup covers. Might buy another pair from gear4music and have another go, but it'll be a binned set of Gibson strings and might not be any better.

I guess I'll have to buy it despite already owning at least my second copy (one vinyl, one CD) - it's more than an OK album imho, it's a brilliant one.

I've no idea who the bloke with the guitar behind Ana is?

Great photo, I have a bunch of pictures from gigs at the Africa Centre which was in Covent Garden. They're not taken by me but I don't suppose it would matter if I posted a few 45 years on.

About 47 years ago I followed a tour by Raincoats, Kleenex and Spizz Energi round the country, sort of as an unpaid roadie. I was a little bit in love with Gina.

Innervisions, Talking Book, Key of Life, Fulfillingness, Hotter Than July, all masterpieces.

He's trying to run the whole world- pressuring us Brits to extract oil, trying to influence Hungary's elections, starving Cuba, running a puppet government in Venezuela, threatening to destroy Iran, threatening to annex Greenland ...

I had it on in the car this afternoon - it was a life changing album for me 49 years ago (not necessarily for the better!)
It's still absolutely brilliant, White Man In Hammersmith Palais would be one of my Desert Island Discs.

We do this literally every lunchtime watching Tales of the Unexpected. What other shows the actors were in, who they were married to, where they were born and died

Every single bib number is in a plastic wallet along with the race results - in three box files. In date order.
I also have two shoe boxes absolutely crammed with medals, something like 250 of them.

Hate to be confrontational but Bacon Fries are MUCH better than Frazzles.

The only Brexit "benefit" is a lot of stamps in my passport, rather outweighed by time spent in EU airport queues.
