Hampton Arms Playlist 2009
Jan. 30th, 2019 11:18 amAnother flashback to ten years ago -
Sunday night was the usual Hampton Arms gig with DJ Flipside. Quieter than last time but a few punters enjoyed the music with four asking what the tunes were or that it reminded them of their childhood (Clifford T Ward for one young lady and that the tracks I played by him inspired her!).
Anyway here is what I played -

Byron Lee and The Dragonnaires - Soul Serenade (Duke 8")
Bruce Ruffin - Mad About You (Rhino 7")
Franck Pourcel - Days of Pearly Spencer (Columbia EMI EP 7")
Gary Walker and The Rain - Spooky (Polydor 7")

Help needed once more
Jan. 30th, 2019 05:41 pmOnce again, the post I have been dreading to make.
My pay not being what it should, I do not have enough to cover rent and groceries for the next two weeks. I will need at least $600 to get by and make it to the end of the month - to cover rent and those other expenses. Hopefully my new job will make it so I do not have to do this again in the future. I am definitely keeping my fingers crossed for that!
If you could pimp this post, guise, I would be ever so grateful!
If you can help out, just send what you can to Paypal at phoenixdragondreams@gmail.com
Thank you for any and all help! Appreciated, always!
*Squishes Flisty (and anyone who might read this post!)*
Love~

Wednesday Wonderings
Jan. 30th, 2019 10:34 pmAntiestablishmentarianism is one of those sesquipedalian words I love but seldom used. I thought about today after reading a couple of books today, one on the linguistic development of the human brain, and the other on the abuse of language.
This has been the modus operandi of the day. Reading texts, devouring words and analyzing the connotations in tomes that refer to how the brain works. Another paperback has been sublimated and chewed over so expect a review at some point.
Consequentially, I did not bother perambulating to the town centre and picked up food items from the local store, a One Stop. It was sunny and cool. However, the threat of snow looms over the next few days.

I took this pic yesterday as this archway to the rail tracks above delineates Grove Close leading to our little corner from Waller Road that points toward the local shop in Lower Road. The picture was taken looking through the archway to Grove Close.

I took this picture today as I was walking down Lower Road to the local shop shown below.

They do a nice pepperoni pizza for a quid.
