New Roger Taylor album Violence Insane in a Beautiful World

Just finished Revelation Space by Alistair Reynolds and now on to Slow Gods by Claire North. Have got the 2 follow ups to Revelation Space arriving today. Looking forward to those.

New Lonely Robot - The Ending

Over the boundary and under the covers by Nigel G Howard

Devin Townsend - The Moth Epic

Seen that we have been warned not to use pyros or invade the pitch at the end in lieu of what sanction is already coming for spygate and that we were fined last time we did this. So - lots of noise - paper streamers - party poppers XL - constant singing and chanting.

if we win all of our games then we will be level on points although they will still have that game in hand. We do need someone else to do us a favour and a 6 goal swing in goal difference which is not much to ask.

The trouble is that the British public are - I believe - stupid enough to give these guys a chance. Watch out what you vote for - if you think the Tories were selling off the country wait until Reform get in - goodbye NHS - a we know it and hello to making us pay for our health either directly or indirectly (which we do now to a degree through NI/taxes). Farage is a clown bully. All of their promises will come crashing down.

I am watching Star Fleet Academy. I like it but then I am generally easy to please and don't tend to get too bogged down in 'is it canon' or plot holes etc. Holly Hunter's character is fun.

I'm reading the 3 Body Problem trilogy, Currently on the 3rd book. All very deep and philosophical. Can't quite see how they make series 2 work on TV without changing it quite a bit. 'Based upon the books by Cixin Liu' is a statement that comes to mind - much like the Foundation series.

Yes i have been watching Andor and yes it is exceedingly good. I have the last episode to watch - just tryng to find the chance to sit down and watch it properly with no distractions. Handmaids tale - I know what you mean about how it has gone. I have a few of the last series to watch but not quite as gripped by this series as the previous few. Not started watching the new season of LAST Of US but will get onto that after finishing the two above. Not sure I'm up for Adolescence - sounds harrowing.

Didn't we ruin Manchester City's last game at Maine Road - would be nice (although highly unlikely) if we can do the same again.

The Strawbs

And I think I heard that there will be a second series. I agree that it seems the part is his completely - I wonder if they wrote it with him in mind especially as he is one of the (many) producers.

Just watched Ludwig with David Mitchell. Not a comedy. it's a crime drama. Unfortunately only 6 episodes long and I enjoyed it lot. Set up for a second series which it will hopefully get as it's not Netflix. it's on iplayer.

I'm reading The 4 Pillar Plan by Dr Rangan Chatterjee and it is enlightening. I would recommend it to everyone - he is not linked to any corporations so is not selling anything. I am starting to take some of this on board but do already meet some of the steps in each of the 4 pillars.

Love a bit of Whitesnake. Seen them a few times - first time in the 80's with the Cozy Powell 633 Squadron drum solo. Lost my eyebrows to the flap throwers!! He's also worth listing to on the Rockonteurs podcasts run by Gary Kemp and Guy Pratt - DC has been on 3 times - always very entertaining

I thought it was excellent - I can live with the variations to the source work but feel your comment about it being changed to helping leading in to the next film a little spurious - surely the books lead on - although there may be a gap between Dune and Dune Messiah - can't remember even though I only read the trilogy last year. This is not a go by the way

I think I was there with my Ipswich supporting mate.

My first game in over two years so I hope that we win and it's entertaining - from our side of course.

The Lazarus Project - have watched both series over the last month - Loved it. All the light we cannot see - 4 episode mini series based on a book. I enjoyed this a lot. Two very different viewing experiences there.

All of Marillion since Seasons End on as I went to see them at the Roundhouse on Sunday and they were awesome - yet again.

When people say that you must watch this or that series as it's the best thing since sliced bread - such as Breaking bad. I try not to do this about things I like.

I have a Cupra Born with a 58Kw battery and V3 spec. Quoted range 240 miles. You can get the 78Kw but you lose a seat in the back - this has a quoted range of around 340 miles I think. Pottering around you can get that and sometimes more - after one charge it told me the range was 290 miles - no heating or AC on. Any motorway driving and then no. Most I've got was 200 on a motorway drive and probably not going over 65. It's a great car, lots of toys, nice to drive - but £41K - over priced (company car - saves me lots of money over the previous Golf GTE which was a hybrid) My boss has a Polestar -2 years old and that always says he gets 250 miles on a charge. If you have to do a lot of mileage EV's are not for you. If mainly short journeys then they are good. Of course - whether they are really as good for the planet as they say is another matter. The damage from getting the lithium for the batteries, the eventual hit taht will come when all these EVs batteries reach the end of their life, how the electricity is generated etc etc. I am all for alternative fuels but do wonder if EV is the answer and not something else (hydrogen)
