Al Stewart, on the other hand, is a lifelong (well, for over 40 years anyway) favourite of mine.


Well that makes (at least) two of us..... Wink
Make That three.



Four (actually, make that five!).

 It was the - unsuccessful - Lori, Don't Go Right Now single that got me interested and its parent album, Russians & Americans, that made me a fan. Not the most obvious entry point but I still love that album.



Yes, not the strongest of his albums,  but it has its moments.  


It's one of my favourites but then, it was my introduction to Al's music. Has to be the UK edition though. The US one dropped Lori, Don't Go Right Now and The Gypsy & The Rose for a couple of tunes I don't like quite as much.

If you don't recognise me, I'm sure you'll recognise Wendy. See the photo attached.



I am convinced that 50 % of the stewards at NFFF looked like you. I think we should be told . Beware of imitations. Is there any truth in the rumour that you are in the second series of Ann Droid?
Or I could have been delirious from the heat in the holding field.  Grin  Wink

I recently acquired some Captain Morgan 0% Rum which will be horrible, I have no doubt.

At least I can drink it though.

Haven’t brewed anything horrid this year, so have been scouring Tesco for something nasty.

Unfortunately they won’t let me try it first even though I took my own mug. I should say it has proved successfully awful in the past. 😝

Brecon Jazz Festival this weekend.

Jazz isn't my thing but there are a lot of excellent bands/performers playing a variety of styles of music at fringe events around the town so it should be a fun weekend.

For whatever reason, I can't turn the festival programme into a blue clicky but it can be found on the Brecon Town Of Music facebook page, if anybody wants to take a look:
