been rummaging through a great collection of 80's hits recently acquired (not exactly pleasing Stuart in the process - not a huge 80's fan) and have come across some *great* tracks which bring back memories or feelings - fab! not sure what's been my surprise favourite as yet (surprising due to my naff memory as I am bad at remembering artists and ( Read more... )

the deciding point between going to a psy-trance night and a mittelalter band gig was the fact that I/we were feeling tired and fancied a not too late night, so the latter won.

well, mini synopsis of previous doings - a (very hot and damp, ooh-er) fantabulous Sisters of Mercy warm-up gig at Joseph Wells/Leeds (great atosmphere and punters) with a nice visit this Sat/Sunday gone to a mate who now lives in Bristol (got to see new flat, had bbq and a little walk around city centre) and a Skinny Puppy gig (naff cramped venue ( Read more... )

Looks like it has been a need-chocolate-sugar day for some of us (ie ( Read more... )

My appetite is returning. Due to being ill, and possibly Leipzig, have gone down nearly a whole dress size, which is a good thing, but doubtful it will last (have managed to resist snacking at home and have stuck to single portions, not having seconds).
