Re: Yay, it's cheery Friday.

Oh, and also Cheery Friday because we're off to see Sham 69 in Cambridge tonight. The kids are united!

Quite ludicrous at his age, but got to admit he's quite the showman and good for a laugh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhJzQaE6FJM

Re: Yay, it's cheery Friday.

Re: Yay, it's cheery Friday.

Always good to see light at the end of the tunnel Bob. Bit of good news today (apart from missing out on Amyl!!) so decided to take the rash step of the year's first cocktail. And now the sun's clouded over, sigh. Sod it, having it anyway, cheers! https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53727720946_4283...

Slightly-Annoying Friday. Been waiting for tickets to open for Amyl and The Sniffers at 10am. Sold out by five past! How does that happen? Must be automated buyers or summat. Oh well, just have to make do with Sham 69 the same week.

Re: Yay, it's cheery Friday.

Fair point Sean, we are lucky in that respect. Hence why I don't use bottled water etc. Pity the effluent side of things isn't quite as rigourous. Then again we're pretty lucky with that too compared to many countries aren't we. I think it's the accountability that I'm a bit cynical about sometimes ...
