jazzy_daveA bit of a surprise today. A couple of our remaining relations popped by on the way to a funeral. Derek and Janet. Not seen either of them for years.
They stayed for about half an hour and then had to go to one of Janet’s friends funeral.
In the afternoon I went over to Sittingbourne to sign on and got some pigs liver from a proper butcher shop. Then whipped over to Faversham by train to get some cherry and vanilla pipe tobacco. Whilst in the town I popped into a Cancer Research charity shop. Picked up two literary paperbacks for 50p each and put them on the Play Trade site for around four pounds each. Sales are going steady anyway.
The two paperbacks are -
Italo Calvino “The Castle of Crossed Destinies” (Vintage)
and
Patrick Suskind “Three Stories & A Reflection”(Bloomsbury)
Bus and train fares are a lot more expensive in Kent than Sussex though.
Good documentary again on BBC 4 this evening “Reggae Britannia” , infact it was quite a brilliant documentary, and it amused me to hear Dennis Bovell's claim that Jimi's Third Stone From The Sun was the first dub track. However , shame about the live concert that followed it at the Barbican. A poor watered down version of the intensity of reggae. Stick to the original vinyl I say!
