Hamburger Lady by Throbbing Gristle was a real story, that's "our" music at its peak.

They're dismissive and stuck up : we're very friendly

They're swigging wkd : we're drinking German wine

What is that even in relation to? Who are "they"? 

short skirt wearers with aspirations to cheer captaincy.

A veritable brigade of plaudits.

Either that or, every time someone comes close to sitting next to you, just invitingly pat the seat, while maintaining eye contact. They'll soon move along.

Amateur-level — nob out is the way to go.

Actually, nob out on the train is a blinder for this thread.

Ever feel like a total idiot? I just had to claim that the reason I punched the air like the end of an 80s movie was because Forest pasted Bolton yesterday, and not because a randomized album just chucked Dolce Vita by Ryan Paris at me.

LED signs, and misspellings on awnings

Casco — Son of my Father

Top arse.

The Cathedrals — Step Into the Water

Filled out my bingo card of ridiculous shit today — first of all, got a fantastic followup on this picture, from late last year:

Turns out that George is out

And then, cycling back from doing some stuff at dinner time, I helped out a lovely Uruguayan couple who were trying to figure out the local bikeshare that I use. Helped them out, felt good about that. Was all paid in full when I asked where they were from.

Have You Never Been Mellow — Olivia Newton-John

Loose Joints — Is It All Over My Face (Original Male Version) 

It's Arthur Russell.

*not gay

Found this one, buried in a folder just called "Not My Pics" — the rest are all family pictures I've had sent to me. Maybe I'm related to Colin Crompton?

Just went to an obscure part of my documents folder, where I set up some folders to process old artwork — opened it up, and the folders were empty (as they should be), except for this.

I did Quorn toad in the hole yesterday and my wife and daughter didn't even notice.

Shame to see food go to waste, but that's a cracking story.

Orlando Riva Sound — Indian Reservation [cracking cover of Paul Revere and the Raiders excellent original]

This is all good stuff — great early Eurodisco, and sexy cultural appropriation

The Brothers Johnson — Stomp!

Just made your day better... YOU'RE WELCOME.

I did start a thread about editing or similar, a long while back — I regret to admit that I'm still useless and haven't even shot stuff to edit. I am forever hopeful that I'll wake up a different person one day, spend the $20 or so that I need to get a VHS camcorder, and that's the final link in the chain that leads to me shooting scads of footage, and self-teaching Premiere Pro and After Effects, in order to become a real pretentious twat.

My mum is one of the worst photographers in history, with shaky hands and no patience. She took a cracker last year, though.

I had a demented cookie the other day — two massive chocolate chocolate chip cookies, wedged around a load of nutella and the edges rolled in chocolate sprinkles to make it into a brigadeiro cookie sandwich. Made the mistake of having it with a similarly styled iced coffee and then going on a boat, but it was cracking whilst it lasted.

It says biscuit, though. Top notch VAT dodge.

Absolutely. Seems like the rules have finally been... codified.

Same one I went to! Must have had fish and chips from there for 20 years or so.

Yeah, Woolacombe is glorious. Going to spam up the holiday thread in a few days with pics. Saw probably the best sunset of my life day before yesterday.

Not a proper chippy if it's in a town where the sun sets. That's a caff, mate.

Not if you're not from Hull, anyway.
