FINALLY got hold of a digital version of “I’m in Love” by Kingmaker. I have it on vinyl & tape, and after many years of searching it turns up on the iTunes store of all places! This song has been personal to me since I was a teenager. I love it. Miss you Loz.

Christmas was OK, same as usual really. Fewer presents. Fewer family arguments this year though so that was good.

New Year’s Eve was fun, didn’t bother with going to a pub/club as it’s always such a let down. Went to Lou & Rich’s and played Guitar Hero 3 and Pub Quiz with them, ( Read more... )
