Happy Birthday To The Other “Sexy Scott”!

Bon Scott. Might not be what you would call “classically” good looking…but geez I think you’d have yourself a good time in his presence! Certainly a night you wouldn’t forget in a hurry! Always just…with that glint in his eye, you know? Those Cancerians….ya gotta watch them! Lol He’d have been 73 today (today already…

To The Donors So Far…

I did the draw a day early. I was worried that I wouldn’t get to have the time to do the draw tomorrow, so while I was lazing about today, resting up from yesterday, I recorded the draw on FB Live earlier this afternoon. The name drawn was Julz Finley, so the print will be…

The Race (For Life) Is The (Glittering) Prize

It was such a great day today. The weather conditions were perfect. Temps in the high teens, cloudy with a light breeze. Unlike last year when I was a disorganised idiot and turned up 5 minutes before race time, I got there in plenty of time this time. There didn’t seem to be as many…

A Walkman?

I never had one. Not a genuine Sony Walkman anyway. And when I finally got a generic “portable cassette player” I just used it at home, for listening to music on the quiet. I never really went anywhere much. There was no need for me to want to listen to music “on the go”. Where…

Why I Love…Changeling

The dancefloor. Frigging hell! Did Simple Minds know how to fill it back in the day. I guess they still do to be fair. But let us rewind back to 1979. Rockfield Studios in the Welsh countryside. Five young men from Glasgow are in the studio making the followup to their debut album. An album…
