Haven't heard this in years!

Have you been watching "Ashes To Ashes"? It has led me to re-assess some
early 80s music. Some of it was actually very good indeed.

No, but I watched ten minutes of Torchwood this week (the BBC3 version).
What a load of old bilge.

Our perception of 80s music was tainted by the dreaded Radio One play
list. there's good stuff in all eras if one is allowed to access it.

The record being played now is a notable exception.

Read again O picky one. I said that it was an exception to the idea that
there is good music in *any* era. Do try to keep up.

Besides, I have an excuse. Mr Gary is AWOL so I'm suffering withdrawal.

I'm about to abandon Skyline and play some Rainbow.

I'm suffering withdrawal cos, although i don't feel as crappy as I did,
and the fair Wendy has fed me a Belgian bun, I still have a headache, so
I'm loathe to hit the scotch.

Still an' all, considering that staying sober tomorrow evening is not an
option, I guess I'm better off not drinking tonight.

And now it's playing "Harvest" by Neil Young. Okay... VCR's not as good as
DSOTM, but it's a viable substitute.

I love VCR. The advantage of 'Dark..' is the interaction with Mr G.

And he doesn't have quite the number of ads as VCR. I think.
