This thread is less disturbing than it used to be, but Chris Dickson left for Charlton and a couple of loan spells elsewhere. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Dickson_%28footballer%29
Without doubt DDL has to be one of the best actors of his generation but he is in danger of going a bit Al Pacinoey isn't he. Not that I don't love Al Pacino or anything, it's just that post Scent of a Woman you rather know what to expect from his performances. Maybe he figured "That won me an oscar, I'll keep at it."
Dont forget wildtrack and the lovely su ingle and the best theme tune EVAAA http://www.freetonia.com/ringtones/listen/217401 can't believe the only example i can find on entire t'internet is on a blimmin ringtone download site.
Wandering through town with a fellow forumite this weekend, said ite frogmarched me into Fopp, knowing full well I'm still a recovering addict, and forced me at BFGpoint to buy lots of CDs. This one was an absolute gem. Murcof - Memoria from the album Martes on Leaf.
I've heard Carrion Comfort is good. I read his other horror effort Song of Kali which was a bit so so to be honest. Also reading a China Mieville book, Un Lin Dun, which only after buying did I realise was a kids book. Reading it is not unlike my one harry potter experience; it's a kids book. I'm sure kids will love it, but there's a reason its a kids book not an adults book which makes for an unsatidfying literary experience. I can't say as I can understood the Harry Potter phenomenon among adults. Should I ever feel like finding my inner child I'll dig out Winnie the Pooh.
The old stadium was knocked down as part of the whole sainsburys malarkey. It was one of the venues of the 1948 olympics. I never got to see it but it was, from what the locals tell me, impressive if dilapidated. This was the only photo I could find http://cache.viewimages.com/xc/3402199.jpg?v=1&c=ViewImages&k=2&d=BD2794AE0B3E23AD2ABFC408DD0236DFA55A1E4F32AD3138
I think I've finally worked out who you are snorky, with your hatred of bono and your bizarre upset from uxbridge style posts. You are really Nigel Blackwell from Half Man Half Biscuit and his alter egos Charles & Maud Exford, Compton Mo'Fo, Nick Drake and co!
*Bob* set your white balance to cloudy and it'll make your bread look a lot more appetising. It's a bit on the blue side at the moment, and food should never be blue (good steak and smarties aside)
Good friday choices, in keeping with the rawk theme *makes silly thumb & little finger thing with hand* the cult sonic temple billy talent prisoners of today
Dan Simmons - Fall of Hyperion You'd have thought that trying to base trilogies on Keat's Hyperion/Endymion cantos (you know the ones, a thing of beauty is a joy forever) and the illiad, not to mention the Canterbury Tales would be a recipe for a disaster, but the boy's very good.
PGC. Just remembered a johnny come lately who's rather good. http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?20,7146,17931#msg-17931 Plus Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Turn Into
CItizen, a couple of my friends went to Summerhill at the time of the famous documentary. They're still a bit bitter about the film makers who were everyone's best buds then obviously did some juicy editing to put the school in an iffy light. I even met the lad who killed the wabbit!!
What will I achieve, that's another matter!!! I'm deciding between achieving world peace, universal suffrage or an end to slavery, but am beginning to edge towards going to the pub to meet my brother to sort out a stupid argument with my dad.
Reading class war snorky, why does that not surprise me?! (mid you I dip into a blog called Lenin's Tomb, so I can hardly talk) Work has decided to block pretty much everything of late here since yesterday, including youtube, songza and no doubt the forum. Of course doing lots unsanctioned development (and buying the odd beer) as favours for the network/IT security chaps has it benefits !!
