Playing the hits of 1957 and trying to remember the arrival of my brother Roger. I was four. Fuck me, I remember every single one of these songs. Overall impression: hope, joy, optimism.

Just got an EBay notification that the ‘vintage carpet bowls set you’re watching is now discounted’.

I’m guessing that went on my watchlist on an evening where I accidentally took 2 gummies.

He looks very modest and never looks up to see himself on the monitor, gurning, which puts him in the 0.0000001 % of the audience.

Daffodil bulb in a paper bag. Sticker asking to plant it in her memory. Name erased.

I've been to the funeral of a 33 year old mother of 2 small children. As always when it's a young death the church was packed. All the kids she used to play out with had turned into grown ups in dark suits. I have a bulb to plant in her name. It'll grow in the village where she grew.

Dimitri From Stoke On Trent - I Wanna Be Your Lobster YouTube video by James Hicks

Remembering Prince, for me, is about 50% this brilliant mix of recorded and live versions of I Wanna Be Your Lover, 30% of everything else, then actually 20% of this again. Soul of Twit from the bad place and I played it at each other all the time.
