I saw Shane MacGowan in the 90's at Manchester Academy when he was touring with The Popes. I grabbed my mates camera and my student press card and hopped onto the stage, he flashed me his inimitable smile with fag and champagne coupe in hand. I'll certainly miss knowing he's still around, RIP.
I wish for all this to be marked on by body when I am dead. I believe in such cartography β We are communal histories, communal books.
Michael Ondaatje.
Definitely worth your time, cast, score, production values, thoroughly enjoyable, even stands up for rewatches of odd episodes.
He was scary in Peaky Blinders playing a Mafioso type, deliberately so I think. Quite an intense look about him generally I think.
I miss Bowie.

Hi, hope you are well Splash :)
I blame Thatcher for the whole sorry mess, without her we wouldn't have had new Labour, the absolute drift to the right resulting in true blue new new Keir Harmer.
Well this is better than the twitter X carry on, like old twitter when it was good.
