blah blah odds and sods

Thought i'd add this..

not sure whether these blogs will continue, whether i can commit the time , or just get readers.. xmas period is upon us, a time to reflect and take stock, myspace brought me to the beauty of blogging, and there strangley seems to be a bigger community out on there, i need to spend more time on this site, if it is to continue...... or get comments, if anyone wants me to continue on here send a message, or ideas to help spread the word ....

if you do read... Happy christmas and a great new year !! see you soon on here or Myspace..

pc discs and a rat

One of the ads on MySpace was for PC WORLD (other shops also available)
The add was for PC discs!!

Made me think a little

I voted for Labour the last 2 or 3 elections
I put my faith and trust in them,
But they kinda let me down a little with the computer discs…thing.

Not that they alone can not look after discs ohhhh no

3 discs = 25 million names of people claiming child benefit = missing

1 disc = Norwich union 15,000 names = missing

1 disc = dvla Northern Ireland drivers info = missing

1 hardrive = dvla 3 million learner driver names and info, missing in Iowa!!

All the above in the last 3 weeks

Is it too much to send a courier, and not just drop it in the post…??

We put our trust in these people, our lives, info etc; surely security should mean a bit more??!!


On a quirckier note the BBC reported this morning that a rat the size of a cat had been found in the jungle….

It has a long tail, long rodent teeth, and “ratty” fur….

Yep that’ll be a rat then!!!

music revolution

Here’s something I meant to blog a long time ago.

Maybe I was waiting for it to be done by someone else,
Maybe it WAS done by someone else??

There is a revolution going on ..

A Sheffield music revolution.

This may seem strange to some, some may have missed it..
I was always an indie ( true indie, Madchester kid at heart, not this awful pap these days )

The true Sheffield music success started with Joe Cocker, and of course, Tony Christie..

We make our way, picking through Black Lace “AGADOO” … Human League, and Def Leppard, kinda wilderness years…

Upto the early 90’s Pulp…. Babybird… Longpigs… Various vegetables.

But now Sheffield is back on the map..!!

Richard Hawley…
Arctic Monkeys…
Milburn…
Rev. & the Makers…
The Jives
Jarvis Cocker is still knocking around…

Come the revolution !!

Liverpool, and Manchester have always had strong music roots, but now is the time to recognise a city that deserves music recognition !
