"This is My Song" by Petula Clark. I didn't know she'd released anything other than "DownTown".


The Number One on the Day You Were Born

MP: the Fopp branch by Covent Garden is now open again.

I finally got round to getting the last Animal Collective album Strawberry Jam. It seemed to be in all the end of year best ofs (well, the less mainstream ones anyway), but I'd been a bit disappointed by Panda Bear's album, so I held off.

Anyway, I shouldn't have.

It's an absolute marvel, all the playfulness of Panda Bear, and the trademark bonkers soundscapes from AC, but it's much tighter focussed and more powerful than their previous work.

Unsolved Mysteries and Cuckoo Cuckoo beat even The Purple Bottle and Banshee Beat for an unsettling encounter with your childhood nostalgia, tinged with death and loss.

Well worth a place on anyone's shelf.

    • I hope it's ok to use this thread to ask for advice on a separate issue in relation to TJ Medical Practice. A friend of mine who is registered there has recently been diagnosed with a serious long-term condition. He has been struggling to find a good GP at the practice since the departure of Dr Love and I said I would try to find out which of the remaining GPs other patients have found most capable and sympathetic - particularly for the scenario of overseeing ongoing care for a long-term progressive illness. Is there any particular GP that people would recommend?  Very many thanks.
    • I,m not a fan of Gales; but a lot of food serving premises open on Xmas day , so not unusual, worked in catering for nearly 40 years and staff usually get extra pay… My niece who is in her last year of college & wants to go travelling next summer, is waitressing in a restaurant near where she lives on Xmas day & Boxing Day for £20 per hour to boost her travelling fund. Back in the day I worked New Year’s Day 2000, & had my pay bumped to £50 per hour, happy days (wasn’t forced I volunteered)
    • Hardly strange; arcane perhaps. It used to be a common practice in many towns for the swings, roundabouts etc in parks to be chained up by the council on Sundays, so that they didn’t provide a source of reckless pleasure on the sabbath. The outrage that a cake shop should open on Christmas Day reminded me of this. The policy had pretty much died out in England and Wales by the 70’s but is still in force in parts of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland.
    • I would be interested to learn if Gail's hike their prices on Christmas day. I don't go to Gail's (as I prefer Christophers on HM Lane) but if anyone does go and detects a bit of price gouging, please let us all know.
