Sky Larkin - The Golden Spike.


Quirky lyrics*, jangly guitar pop with shades of Belly, Sugarcubes and a bit of Echobelly.

If that sounds good I highly recommend.

Iron & Wine is great



at this very moment listening to "The Old Kit Bag " album by Richard Thompson

Uh, sorry, but modern Snow Patrol is really good -at least to these codgerish ears. Ok, naive, but gets at a certain unvarnished truth emotional truth. Is it hopelessly naff to like Kings of Leon? That guy's voice is deeply special - and vibes on that rarest of things - honestly expressed male passion and vulnerability.

Paper Planes by MIA is this wonky/skanky celebration of sudden-death sink estate culture.Scary but compelling and ridiculously catchy. Weirdly featured in Slumdog.

Anyone know Schnauss? Modern German bloke who's electronica is a kind of blissed out exploration of mood and theme.


Ok, end of wank-a-thon.


Pip pip!

    • I hadn't read that article. I think I read it in another article or post quoting figures which were possibly wrong. Many of the people protesting their "unhappiness" appear to be racist. They don't appear to protest about white immigrants from, say, Australia. Nor do they come out waving flags to protest about, say, domestic violence by white men, unless you have evidence to the contrary?
    • This thread hasn't been updated for a while. For the Sept 2025 intake (i.e. the kids starting this week), the Charter East Dulwich school website says the 'longest distance' offered was 1700m (as of 1st May 2025 - I guess it might have increased a bit more after 1st May 2025). Below is a map of 1700m - but parents should still apply even if outside this circle (the distance has been increasing each year, as local demographics change etc) For those considering applying for Sept 2026, this recent Ofsted report is very encouraging - https://files.ofsted.gov.uk/v1/file/50249504 - it basically says the school would have been graded as 'Outstanding', but it was not a 'graded inspection' so they are not officially allowed to say that. Obviously Ofsted has its limitations (!), but the text in this report is very complimentary.  And the recent GCSE and A level results are the best yet:  https://www.chartereastdulwich.org.uk/post/year-11-students-at-the-charter-school-east-dulwich-achieve-strongest-gcse-results-yet  https://www.chartereastdulwich.org.uk/post/sixth-form-students-at-charter-east-celebrate-best-ever-results An unapologetically pro-Charter East Dulwich post 🙂
