jazzy_daveA nice sunny day so far and a little warmer than yesterday. I just pottered around listening to music and reading. Did not bother going into town, the last day of the weekend Hop festival in town. It gets way too crowded with drunkards from out of town not wanting to be part of the pagan festival. Mind you, I do miss the Morris Men and their dances.
Today, I am checking out what visits are available, and looking pretty thin at the moment. I am certain that this damn whole Brexit shenanigans and the prorogation of Parliament have a lot to do with this uncertainty. Time will tell and I know that React have yet to list their September visits, and ProInsight always have plenty if you like leisure centres and fitness clubs.
Meanwhile, I am listening to the solo album Mark Holiis made in 1998. This was recorded seven years after the last Talk Talk album. It is a very individual and singular piece of art. He threw off the shackles of a pop existence to create the bleakest, yet most lyrical orchestral rock this side of Scott Walker. Oh, and I do love the solo work of Scott as well. Will probably play some Scott later on and Nick Drake, since it has been a while since I listened to Five Leaves Left.
Last night I watched a DVD I had for a while from one of my covert shops. Stephen Fry as Oscar Wilde in the movie biopic "Wilde". A wonderful performance.A sad end to a brilliant playwright, socialite and poet.
Time for some lunch or a snack.
