Your favourite can obviously change daily, today my fave is:


"Visions of Johanna"


WHY ? Seems in a class or style of it's own for the time it was issued, perhaps at that time it sounded like what was to come (part of what was to come) in popular music. Sung with confidence, like a strong poem, never seems to tire no matter how many times you play it. Also something quite sensual about it.

Gave up far too easily. (tu)

I am

Favourite Dylan song constantly changes but today I am thinking:


All Over Now Baby Blue (adore the Bryan Ferry version)

One More Cup of Coffee

You Belong to Me (always brings a tear)

Just Like a Woman

Covenant WEoman

Simple Twist of Fate

What Can I Do For you?


Oh heck, did I have to pick just one? Can't do that. I don't rate him as a singer though and his gigs are very dull.

giggirl - sometimes you just have to pick whatever is today's fave ! And yeah I agree his gigs are worse than watching paint dry, nearer LISTENIN to paint dry in fact. Been to a few and just not worth it for me.

So let's concentrate on his songs as it's a more positive experience !!


Been playing some today and today my fave is 'Obviously 5 Believers', if ever a guy got the blues and did something with it in his own way it was Zimmy.

    • I think Watsons General Telegraph do two margaritas  for £13 every Thursday. The Great Exhibition also does a margarita deal on a Thursday: https://www.greatexhibition.pub/new-events-1 I've not tried either deal yet.  
    • We first used Aaron's services for a badly damaged wall that had gone back to the brickwork due to water ingress from the bay window. We found Aaron initially through recommendation and were very fortunate to do so as we already had a couple of quotes from trades found online that were just ridiculous, clearly just a rip off, so not sure what we would of done without that recommendation. We have just had more work completed by him, two walls skimmed and more comprehensive work where the brickwork was exposed around the fireplace. The wall above the fireplace was the original plaster finish and in good condition but the original plan was to have the whole wall replastered but we couldnt get the tv off the wall bracket so asked Aaron if he could just plaster up to the tv, not ideal but not much choice. Aaron didnt have any issue with that atall and more than happy to do it. Amazingly the join between the new plaster and old plaster is invisible. Perfect feather edge finish.  Aaron is very pleasant natured, he turns up on time, he doesnt mess about and gets on with the job. He works in a very clean manner. He doesnt try and inflate the job to make it more expensive. We found him to be extremely competitively priced. Both jobs have been finished to an excellent standard. The finish is so smooth its like glass. We will certainly be using his services again in the future.     Aaron Manser 07773 410661
    • Yes, and now there's a leak further down Barry Road. Two men from Thames came and stood there looking at it and then went away. Over 24 hours later water still pouring out and no sign of any action to repair
