Great choice Piers. Always a winner with me.


This was the track used at this year's Labour conference. Now it may be lyrically suspect but WHAT a tune! And to think we had to put up with D-Ream:




I could dance to this all night long - and have done.

JOAN BAEZ - I don't know much about her, other than she once shacked up with Bob Dylan. So she's probably quite folky then. I've been sent tickets for her gig tomorrow night (Thursday 2nd) at the Royal Albert Hall. They are really lovely stalls seats and I don't want them to go to waste. If anyone would like to go and can collect the tickets from me tonight in LL then please PM me and you can have them with my compliments.
TALKING HEADS anyone? Not really, but David Byrne with a promise to do all the Talking Heads hits. So what's not to like? Playing two nights at the Festival Hall next April and on sale tomorrow. I'm a member at the RFH so I bought my tickets this morning. Ticket sales just to members have been substantial - so if you want to go get on the phone tomorrow and book it. The RFH still takes returns so if can't plan this far ahead then book it anyway - if you can't go you can still get a refund.

If Mockney Piers doesn't like this I'll eat my alt.country stetson:


Guardian article about First Aid Kit - "dazzling, pine-scented folk that sounds deeply in thrall to the country-infused Americana of Neil Young, Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris, and also gives a nod to the more recent twists added by Conor Oberst and Bon Iver."

Their cover of the Fleet Foxes

You're not coming home hooked me immediately.

Nice!!! Cheers D_C.


Rather confused by the category "Folk / Acoustic / Japanese Pop" on myspace?!?

Are Fleet Foxes like that? I see their albums on the cheap in Fopp all the time Might have to give them a go.

    • Have you complained to the solicitor directly and did they respond within the 8 weeks they have under their code of conduct - I presume they have and this is why you have escalated further to the SRA? If he doesn't respond in a timely fashion per the SRA code of conduct then I am sure they will need to take action.
    • What a bunch of ignorant nimbies.  Their own tweet conspicuously ignores the actual content of their own article FFS. Immediately after the incorrect paragraph quoted about it being unlawful to burn coal wood etc they sit out the actual position:   "However, the use of authorised smokeless fuels in an open fireplace is allowed, as well as burning smoke-generating fuels in an approved stove or burner."   leaving that out is as thick as flying into the amazon rainforest on a private jet to attend Cop 31 thus week.
    • I had to pull this cat back from speeding traffic as she was almost clipped - TWICE -  by passing motorbikes on Underhill Rd. Needless to say, I was seething that anyone would let this cat out onto the streets, specially a street that I struggle to cross myself. When I initially approached her, I thought she had already been injured. By some miracle, she wasn't, she was just paralyzed by fear. Do NOT let this cat out onto the streets.

    • Are there any other executors? Is the solicitor a soke practioner or part of a firm? Are you and your fellow beneficiaries behaving well?  You will want to take proper  legal advice (which this is not) but you can have an executor removed by the court if they are refusing to communicate with you. I would just do that. Tell him you are doing it, tell him you have reported him to the Law Society (if you have) and tell him you will be challenging his fees with the legal services ombudsman. This all sounds outrageous to me and this solicitor doesn't sound fit to practice. Three years sounds far too long for a low value estate comprising mostly of a house. He should have sold that or rented it out whilst he was waiting to administer the estate.    Sounds like he has cost you all a lot of money.
