Ha ha. I have to say I had a look yesterday to see "whatever happened to".

She's in a terrible band called racine* and has gone down the huge amounts of surgery clinging on to youth look like a freak of nature route.


Watch at your peril, it's perfectly SFW it's just terrible.

Nice version. Actually possibly nicer than the original.

I've a love hate thing with bowie. Love some stuff, hate other stuff.

This album encapsulated it with some quality but some seriously sub-prog bad quality rawk in there too.

Might have to give it another listen now, just to remind myself like ;)

Well, say what you will about Bowie (and you don't want to be stuck on an 8 hour flight next to me on the subject) but the album which spawned this song is the least representative of anything he has ever done, coming as it did before any kind of fame beckoned. Apart from the Title track and one other, both of which he had already written, the rest of the album was very last minute with all of the proggy/guitar solo stuff being produced by Mick Ronson and Tony Visconti whicle Bowie canoodled with his missus in the corner



I never listen to the album itself


Hunky Dory, Ziggy, Young Americans, StationToStation, Low, Scary Monsters, 1.Outside and Heathen would be the touchstones for me

To echo your comment about Andrew Eldrich, I have a friend who's into his wrawk, who spent many years in the states trying to get his career going.

As he said, some things can only be in America, you can write a song about driving your Chevy down route 66, it doesn't work when you're driving your Passat to Biggleswade.


Equally country couldn't emanate from the CPT, no matter how much better pub culture here is to insalubrious mid-west bars.

Went to the Latitude Festival at the weekend. Personal favourites were Seasick Steve and Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip (they both, I think, have myspace pages).


Mockney - saw your BSP post earlier; "Carrion" on Later is superb. As a fan you've probably seen it but here it is:-


(sorry - can't do the clever link stuff)

      4+ Assessment Advice for Parents

      By Lord Pencilton · Posted

      It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️

      GALA 2026

      By kiera · Posted

      Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.

      So dangerous!    Can you be more specific about the road this was in and when you report it?  Maybe there’s some CCTV footage available
