All is well

An uneventful journey home last night, GNER and Central both ran to time, I listened to the new Killers CD which is good but not as good as the excellent Hot Fuss,or the fuss generated by the music hacks it deserves
a 7 out of 10.

Coming in this morning an uneventful journey both trains on time, although when I arrived on my Central Diddly Doo from Oakham at 0735 the 0615 and 0710 to East Anglia occupied platform 5, seemingly delayed by a freight train failure East of Posh. Nice one if you wanted to get to Norwich for brekkie or Stansted for a flight?

Enjoyed the excellent Dirty Pretty Things album travelling up this morning, work was OK although a colleague has a dodgy knee and was subjected to some tests by the NHS before retiring home for a well earned lie down, sounds like it could have been worrying though with DVT mentioned and then discounted.

Tonight I am going to have a change of scenery and travel back Midland Main Line as the 1730 Cross to Edinburgh is shown as an HST in trust, might as well enjoy some MML thrash tonight, pity it stops at Bedford though, it will be wedged until then.

more to follow tomorrow, REM the IRS years are on the music box going home tonight what a classic CD a definite 9 out of 10.

Always find that with bands - the follow up albums are never quite as good. I agree with you 7 out of 10.

The Rifles album (8 out of 10) is well worth a listen, and also Midlake (9 out of 10)?

The Rifles are superb, saw them a few weeks back just before the album was released and well impressed.

The album is another thumbs up as is the new Larrikin Love or rather the first Larrikin Love album.

Look out for Bromheads Jacket, Good Books and the excellent Dustins Bar Mitzvah,

Larrikin Love - another fantastic band, love the violin. I've not heard of the other ones you mention there but will seek them out. I think we are in a golden era of great music, so many good bands so little time!

Ummmm not sure the violin is quite what you think, the guitarist has a knack of making his violin sounds off the old strat, very very clever, reminded me of the late great Stewart Adamson playing bagpipes with his guitar and Jake Burns playing Rule Brittanis during Fly the Flag.

I stand corrected! Still, a unique sound anyway.

Happy travels and music!
