Rant re. that arse from coldplay:


He?s just some prat who whines about his emotions. Butch up for gods sake! Why should I care about his puerile observations of the human condition just because he can write songs? Lots of people can write songs it doesn?t qualify them as social commentators. In fact Aqua?s song Barbee Girl is probably a greater contribution to the universal body of music than all of coldplay?s work put together. At least it is amusing in an absurd sort of way and has a good looking woman in the video which is of more cultural value than the shrill laments of a bumfluff faced primadonna. His songs weep wound-like with the kind of pubescent sentimentality found in the scribblings of a petulant teenager who has locked himself in his room with the curtains drawn because the object of his obsession has been giving out handjobs behind the bike shed, nobody understands him and now mum expects him to do his homework.

All music is plagiarism plus 10%, except the really original stuff which is plagiarism plus 2%.


Somewhere there's some poor axe-spanker who Joe Satch 'borrowed from' but there won't be a lawsuit because either they haven't made the connection, they can't afford it, prove it.. or because they're dead. Just because Mr Martin is a bit of a cock and hard to like doesn't mean that the $$$ signs flash untastefully in his head but not in Satch's. There's something distasteful about the whole thing.


I'm not a huge fan.. but at least in eg the hip-hop/rap/blah world, the sample it/use it/sort it out later seems an honest policy in comparison.

All sorts of thinngs one could say in response to this one Mike.

But to do so would be to cast aspersions about certain 'practices' and the lovely Gwynnie.

I simply won't 'go there'.

Just so, MP. Chris, not so yellow after all.

      Tree Killer – Seeking Advice on Dealing with Toxic Neighbours

      By FellbriggSam · Posted

      He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.

      I had some time with him recently at the local neighbourhood forum and actually was pretty impressed by him, I think he's come a long way.

      I cook at home - almost 95% of what we eat at home is cooked from scratch.  But eating out is more than just having dinner, it is socialising and doing something different. Also,sometimes it is nice to pay someone else to cook and clear up.

      Yup Juan is amazing (and his partner can't remember her name!). Highly recommend the wine tastings.  Won't be going to the new chain.
