The rather magnificent Tim Curry is the grand old age of 80 today. I may even give his album a spin later on to celebrate. He's the reminder that women may like men dressed like this...
They find them sexier dressed like this.

space - it's still big
We are insignificant little creatures in the great and vast cosmos, so try and do a good deed every day, enjoy your life while you can, and try not to harm anyone else. Sunday's sermon is now over.

andrew tait - still a tosser compared to keith richards
Remember when skinny young lads wanted to emulate this fine young chappie, rather than the likes of Andrew Tait? The world doesn't always progress for the better.

obama and mamdini meet the children
Remember the days when American politics gave you hope? It could be that way again once the war mongering corrupt kiddie rapist soviet puppet and his lickspittle sycophantic enablers are out of power.

I've got two days off work and l've got an easy week ahead of me, so l'm just chilling out and taking it easy, hoping for a Manchester United win at Chelsea this evening. Wine and food shall be taken then.

the pulp fiction follow up looks a bit crap
I don't know about you, but it looks like Quentin Tarantino has lost the plot.

jonathan livingston seagull - richard bach
I saw a picture of this book cover a couple of days ago, and was immediately transported back to my younger self, reading it for the first time and being blown away by it. I may have to dig it out and re-read it in the next few days. Hippie writing at it's finest, and l remember reading a few ore of his over the years. Hopefully l've kept them all together.

once again the pub let me down
Another disappointing Wednesday get together at the pub this afternoon. I really need to lower my expectations.
What l hoped for.
The reality.

the grand canyon from space
The Grand Canyon. It's big. Very big. If you zoom right in you may see me standing on the edge of it (after l'd stood on The Hoover Dam). My (now ex) wife was not impressed.

dealing with the leeds defeat
How my night progressed after the Leeds defeat. Rolling Stones bootlegs and two bottles of red wine helped ease the pain (plus some smoked sausage and cheese).
l've found my perfect woman
At long last l think l've found my perfect woman. Obviously the fact that she is a cartoon is not going to prevent me fantasising.

l'm not too keen on my new uniform
I work in care and enjoy what l do, but l'm not too keen on our new uniforms. I blame God.

how l feel about the rolling stones
This pretty much sums up my feeling on The Rolling Stones. I still love and play their earlier stuff, but there new albums certainly don't get much airplay in my house.

trump - it was me as a doctor
Do the cognitive test again you senile old kiddie rapist fuck (although he knows what he's doing here).
Toodle pip
I didn't like Bob Harris much presenting the OGWT as l thought he was an old hippie and out of touch, especially after his lame dismissal of The New York Dolls. That may well have been true but l've warmed to him over the years and he loved Marc Bolan and David Bowie, so that gets a pass from me . You get older, and hopefully you realise not everything is black or white. He is, after all, one of the good guys, and a genuine fan of music. Live long and prosper Bob.
united lose against dirty leeds and the southport rioter
After the Manchester United defeat to Dirty Leeds l need a bit of light relief (fnaaar). So.....I'm pretty sure l've put this up before but can't be bothered to look. How a life can turn to crap in a short amount of time. The Southport rioter who took a brick to the head and bollocks in quick succession was shortly afterwards jailed (in 2024). I'm old enough to remember seeing this at the time and it was hilarious. Hope he is a Leeds United fan. Maybe there is a God after all.
The full video is here.

baby fae and the baboon heart (and paul simon)
Listening to Paul Simon's 'The Boy in the Bubble' reminded e of 'Baby Fae' and the baboon heart transplant, which of course led to other reading and kept me out of mischief for a short while. Science can certainly be amazing, and l'm speaking as someone who's had two pacemakers (not at the same time) which help keep me indestructible.

a young meat loaf and tim curry
A rather marvelous photograph of a young Meat Loaf and Tim Curry l hadn't seen before, behind the scenes of The Rocky Horror Show. What charisma and star quality both of them had.

Because of course Nigel Farage has always supported far right dictators (and been monetised by them).
