Some of these might from the 60s but mainly the 70s I think but notable mentions...

Just looking back on those, only after 53 years am I suddenly wondering why Joe 90? Why not Joe 60 or Joe 38? Better go and find out....

""According to publicity information, when Joe joined W.I.N. there were 89 London based agents in operation. Joe became the 90th - hence JOE 90. But according to the episode Project 90, Joe's codename is due to the BIG RAT's designation as W.I.N.'s "Project 90".".

Fair enough. I'm glad we've sorted that out. Although it doesn't explain why "89" other agents existed so that's another problem. I can carry on with the day without worrying about it now.

I've just been out in the car and heard a really nice tune on Radio1. I've no idea what it was or who it was by, but it reminded me of Groove Armada's At the river, but with an Indian / Bangra feel to it. Anyone know what I'm on about? I'd love to find it

Stumbled across this last night - Dirty Hands 'Baby, life's too short'. Quite obviously not everyone's cuppa but me, I like it. I'm getting a late 60's California punk vibe and a hint of Stones :-bd

In a little over a week I'll be visiting your tiny little island to visit friends and family for the first time in over two years.

AND.....I'll be tweaking the nose of danger by attending a music festival in deepest, darkest Cambridgeshire.

The lineup of this years We Out Here festival is literally phenomenal (assuming you like that kind of thing).

Anyone here popping along?

I intend to very much exceed the suggested covid safety measures and I'll be isolating for a bit and testing lots before/after.

But zombie apocalypse terror aside - I am SOOOOO excited to see live music (and such amazing bands/djs!) for the first time in ages!

Yesterday and today to the soundtrack by Hans Zimmer of the movie Interstellar.

Currently sitting out of doors, looking up (when not tiping away on the mobile) to the milky way, listening to crickets and bats.

That does look a very satisfying bit of vinyl..both sleeve and vinyl.

Well, well, well.....that'll teach me to make (and pay for) plans in this day and age.

Oldest mini-me tested positive for the dreaded lurgy today. I am going precisely nowhere.

Poop! Maybe next year.....
