Wuthering Heights was just something so different at the time but my fav from Kate was Running Up That Hill.


Last time I heard anything about Kate was that she was a recluse living away from it all and wanted to protect her son.


Shame she's kept herself undercover for so long. Hope it's worth the wait!

There's a clip of her on Razzamatazz, much-missed ITV pop show for kids. She was warm, humble, interested in the kids and really inspiring. This was an (ITV) children's pop show! Can you think of any of the tat produced now allowing an artist of her calibre to do a seven-minute show-and-tell?
There's an interesting story that the record company didn't want to release Wuthering Heights as the first single at all, but Ms Bush put her foot down and insisted. Showed her label how little they knew. Can you even see that scenario happening today? Having said that though, no artist or band needs to rely on big labels for finding an audience for their music anymore, but it hasn't led to any greater number of great talents emerging. Maybe truly talented superstars are few and far between after all.

    • I just wanted to post for all my neighbours a recommendation of Niko, the wonderful plumber who works locally. Niko has done work for me over the years, including large and small jobs. He recently replaced four radiators in my house which have helped us really be warm for the first time! I recommend Niko so whole heartedly because (1) he is completely straight forward and will advise you not to do something / a cheaper solution, if that is what is best for you; and (2) he is one of the kindest and most honest people I have ever known. He goes the extra mile to sort out problems, particularly urgent ones.   
    • Scaremongering - there is very little vacant land in East Dulwich available as sites for building 9 storey buildings so this is rather hypothetical. It could even be said the occasional taller, modern building breaks up the monotony of Victorian terraced housing.
    • 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.
