No faking out with cool playlists or skipping embarrassing tracks is allowed

This week I was .......


  • re-reading Charles Bokowski's Ham on Rye - not quite the way I remembered it as a teenager
  • reading the NME interview with Morrissey - not quite sure why I wasted 2 pounds on this!!! I now know that the NME no longer targets me as a reader
  • listening to Isobel and Mark (our very own NAncy and Lee) - still stands up as one of the best this year so far
  • listening to Tom Robinson standing in for Mark Radcliffe - not good, but different
  • watching The Apprentice - Jo and Syed will surely be the faces who keep me entertained this series
  • looking for an online calendar and found one at www.calendarhub.com
  • also looking for an online wordprocessor and found it at writely.com (don't ask!!!)
  • Also watching Chelsea get beaten by Barcelona in a match ruined by the ref in the first half!!!
