Anywhere nice? Seeing as you brought it up, I've recently got back from a couple of weeks resting down in Cornwall (again). Camped near St Just, incredible mist off the sea, too much mist/clouds for the Perseids, campsite run by old hippy who used to worked Digital Research in the early eighties. Spent a while in Lyme (more quaint than dreary) where the children got to befriend a dolphin (probably George) that swam into the bay one evening. Went to Penzance for the first time, oddly remeniscent of Whitby, it had a genuine Wimpy restraunt. I has assumed that these had all disappeared. Holiday reading Lost Civilisations of the Stone Age (Richard Rudgley) ok but not great, Journey to the Centre of the Earth (Verne) Deathscent (Jarvis) very agreeable childrens book. Mysterious alien arrives in Tudor England. Tudor England after the Beatification when it was raised by the Special Ambassadors into a number of "islands" in space, all animals are mechanical and lifespans are at least 200 years. As you'd expect Dee and Walsingham appear along with a Blackadderish Spaniard. Back and buried in work since Monday. Skimmed the digests: NextDoorLand: Suprised but pleased that they made something out of Strings. I wonder what happened to the rest of the "Dorset" songs like White Lite and Narcissus Is a Lonely Boy, I hope they made it to side 3. Wonder if Dr Spooner ever joined Falstaff in the Boar's Head.

Great show, I was there. you can look up setlists at http://www.jh3.com/robyn/base Hi everyone - I am not dead - just busy with non-robyn stuff. Welcome back, Ms Diamond... ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 22 Aug 2002 11:17:45 -0700 From: "Rex.Broome" Subject: Non-Odious Radio Morning Whooo-eee... just heard "Pulse of My Heart" on the radio. Liked it. Followed by that "bluegrass" cover of "Spit on a Stranger" by Nickel Creek, which is kind of cool but really only for novelty value, and kind of personally grating since I've been playing "Ell Ess Too/Elevate Me Later" as a country song for years now. (Makes a nice medley with "As Tears Go By".) Good morning for music today... also heard Mercury Rev's cover of John Cale's "I Keep a Close Watch". Although I did have to endure a solo track from one of the Beta Band guys. Just what we need. - -Rex "Kids These Days" Broome ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 22 Aug 2002 14:32:15 -0400 From: Stewart Russell Subject: Re: Non-Odious Radio Morning Rex.Broome wrote: > > Although I did have to endure a solo track > from one of the Beta Band guys.

The first track is so repellant, so annoying, that you can't face the rest of the album. Remove it, or graveyard it, and you have a good, if slightly troubled, little CD. > haven't heard the second... Every bit as good as the 3EPs. Sheer brilliance.
