Seat68

Well my mum died this year. In her 70s. If you asked me the day before if she would make it well into her 80s. I would say absolutely. My feeling is you can't predict when people will die. 

Burton Cummings of The Guess Who has died. 

BBC have now confirmed it.

Wot, no random country act none of us have heard of?

I am disappoint

Sunday mornings I tend to be strictly other stuff. 

I started the day with Paul Simons Still Crazy After All These Years and then followed it up with Elvis Costello's Get Happy. 

In our house there are 2 city cars and my Merc GLA. My commute now is a few trips to south Manchester a week and so will be going to change my car to something a bit less fuel hungry. As much as I want a big car.

Has @Seat68 been working at J Sainsbury?!  

Tesco have come out in sympathy as well and have unconnected issues!  

I have a permanent position with the largest pet goods retailer, I do however know some clowns who work on Sainsbury's software, pos and e-commerce. I will be dropping them a gif of nelson munce. 

No bad version of Rainbow Connection. Willies version is my favourite but this happened this week at Willies festival The Luck Reunion. 

Older people do you remember that weird time during the gulf war, where we got a bit bonkers. 

Before I start this isn't about the gulf war so take that shit elsewhere. 

Watching top of the pops and Massive are on. They had to change their name from Massive Attack so radio would play them. Also Carter couldn't get played with their single bloodsport for all. A comment on the armed services. Such an odd time. 

Amateurs. Ingrained, no alarm. Up between 4.45 and 5. Wash up, walk the dog, feed the grandson, at my desk around 7.15 till 5ish.

sucks teeth - is this one a bit racist?

To sea turtles?

Is weed like coriander in that different people have different experiences of it. Weed smell to me is absolutely sickening. Even back in my days of pipes, hot knives and bongs I detested the smell. My daughter loves the smell though. 

The musician Dege Legg has died. 

Got a ticket to see Dale Watson in Chester, does basically the same music as Beyonce. 

Some big hitters this morning

Well what a glorious waste of time that turned out to be.

 

Purely for information as I don't have a great deal of knowledge about this conflict, certainly not enough to contribute to this thread but EpiPen is manufactured by an Israeli company I believe. 

Start of shorts season today, unless it's an office visit then that will be it until November. Saltrock and not some over priced Instagram shit.
