My lovely horse December 16, 2008

Appreciate the genius that is Father Ted (a little preview of this week of TV). Unfortunately it’s only a link as the clip didn’t allow embedding (except in another version on youtube which was of very poor quality). http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=jzYzVMcgWhg (And apologies to my facebook friends for cross posting…but you can’t have too much of a […]

Watch, Listen and Singalong: Part 3 "God only knows" December 14, 2008

The muzak Christmas police were obviously having a doze this afternoon in Big W. Unless, I was dreaming, there was a moment of respite from the Christmas carol extravaganza and I found myself singing along with this whilst looking for bargains in the women’s clothing. (This montage was the best I could find on youtube). […]

Watch listen and singalong 2: Better be home soon December 11, 2008

Sergeant Pepper’s was one of the first albums I ever bought on an LP, well one of the first albums I ever […]

Watch, listen and singalong 1: Birdhouse in your Soul December 3, 2008

After the earlier Ratcat and Hummingbirds posts earlier in the week I have decided to start a new occasional series of posts called Watch, listen and singalong. Here I will show you my fantastic taste in music (read that sarcastically if you want to! I’m writing it that way), lots of it from the olden […]
