We’ve booked a week in the canaries at the tail end of this year, and I’ve booked skiing flights for Feb next year. EasyJet winter schedule was out a little early and all flights were £60 return with 99p baggage charges, so it was a bit of a no brainer. Who knows whether we’ll actually get to...
Every day feels like a Saturday. I’m furloughed from work, so legally I can’t actually do anything. I was WFH a week or so ago, but now we’ve closed email has dried up and there is nothing to do. It’s been nice working in the garden, which is something I don’t normally do but keeping my son...
This is exactly the time that I’d love to have the chance to wander around these normally bustling cities. Unlikely to ever happen.......under any circumstances
Ronnie Wood is a great guitarist, but he was bought into the Stones to play guitar and little more. His input into Stones songs is negligible at best, whereas Taylor was part of the fabric of the band
Andone is good enough player, but he’s a liability. A red card waiting to happen, or as we saw against West Brom(??), a retrospective 5(?) game ban for violent conduct. No thanks but if we can get something back on the £5m outlay, that’d be good
Our virgin connection regularly shows at around 100Mbps, but today was down at 14. Three of us working from home, no streaming or particular heavy use from us, but I suspect it’s getting a rinsing across our local area
I work with musicians, some hugely successful, some jobbing and some desperately trying to climb the ladder. It’s a lifestyle choice, and is not for the faint hearted. Charlie Watts is often quoted ‘being in the Stones was 5% playing and 95% hanging around’, and that’s where the rot often sets...
Started on the cava as there was a bottle in the fridge. And we’ve just taken delivery of a table tennis table, so that should hopefully see us through these isolating times. When the cava runs out shortly, it’ll be a Rioja
We’re supposed to be going to Barcelona on Friday, and whilst the easyJet offer is a nice gesture you can only change flights until mid October as the winter schedule is not out yet. Our reason for the trip was to take my son to a game, do the stadium tour etc but that’s all been canned. If...
I’m not a Stephens fan, but we missed him today. Propper cannot play that role, his game is to intricate. The idea that Burn and Schelotto would provide attacking width today was easily unpicked by a high press. A great point away from home, I don’t think we deserved anything more from the game
