It’s been a sad week in our house, ah very sad week really. Our dog of 16 and a half years is in her last day or 2…probably going to the great gig in the sky tomorrow really, she’s home from the vets since last evening to say her goodbyes really for a day or two….kidney failure in the end…some dog though, some innings, will be a terrible loss to the house…a house dog , a little yorkie Trixie was, she has always been in the house…came on nearly all our holidays down through the years ( i did moan at times as it made things very limiting) and was my late night companion every night when the house was quiet…we got her when she was just 6 weeks old in May 2007 and she is part of the fabric of the house, sher she had a great life, Gina adored her and was always so kind to her…she is at my feet this morning in front of the heater like every other weds morning as i write this newsletter…she will be sorely missed. Sher loads of ye have been here, I’d say. As Sufjan says every road has to come to an end. Top dog who had a great life, it’s time.
Going to hand ye over to Shane now and he has the job of lightening the mood, no bother to him!!
Ah, really sorry to hear that Ray. You said she was poorly to me earlier in the week.
Keep the heads up as best ye can.
Hi everyone, hope all is ok out there with ye.
Things seem to be calming a bit at we get closer to Christmas. As Ray says, now it’s sell, sell, sell (what we have) time!
Looking forward to the Beatles best of sets. Wasn’t a fan though of how the record company was portioning everything out to suit their needs and claiming things were ‘extremely limited’.
Look, the music is the most important.
Turned 34 last month, the grumpy years must be starting!
Anyway! One of this year’s best rap albums is getting it’s vinyl release on December 1st.
Travis Scott – Utopia will be out on black and red vinyl. Some huge guests on it.
Here’s ‘Modern Jam’, class track: https://youtu.be/g8IvO7OwdaM?si=e4BXLAcKjqws15v6
