Courtney is on there alot, I haven't got into avi buffalo's latest, though i I though his his debut showed loads of potential, in a sort of precocious way.


Blonde Redhead, King Creosote, Beach House, Allo' Darlin', Grouper, Jenny Lewis, New Pornographers and Neko Case (the last two are separate items rather than a tautological descriptor, along with a bit of a Durruti Column phase, all getting airplay whilst I toil at my desk, the atlantic beating down at my window.

The Courtney Barnett album is a little gem ain't it? Her laid back vocal delivery get's me all over.

It's a poor tool. Nowhere near accurate.


I scrobble to lastfm via Spotify and the 12 month lastfm list is very different and much nearer to what i'd expect. For example- Nick Cave is top of my Lastfm list by a distance but not even in the spotify top ten. Similarly with a couple of other artists.


Shame.

I've never really got on with Belle and Sebastian but am really enjoying this latest effort. I've tried to like the Decemberists- many times. I usually like earnest, pretentious bands but I can't listen to that geezer sing without wanting to harm innocents.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
