How many ICE agents does it take to crack an egg? None. The egg weaponised its shell in such a way as to cause the agent to fire in self defence.

Happened upon a Beltane treat at the Seahenge site in Norfolk yesterday that we hadn't seen on previous visits. This is a second ancient timber circle close to the original (long since removed to a museum) apparently only visible at certain tides. I wonder how many more could be there?

I've never fully subscribed to autograph (or celebrity) culture. I don't mind a signed book or record as a memento of a particular encounter at a concert, reading or whatever. A signed wallpaper swatch because someone bothered Chris Lowe in Wickes, not so much.

When I finally got my own turntable in my bedroom it was well into the CD era, so suddenly all the vinyl was being sold in bargain boxes under the tables in the record shops I went to. My teenage vinyl diving owes a lot to this specific window of opportunity.

Tapes were the dominant format in our house, even though the sound quality was overwhelmingly cack. I went for years thinking Miles Davis' Devil May Care was recorded without a bass, which I thought added freedom to the number. I did a version for my BA final recital with voice and drums only.

For me it's this one. It sat unfinished on his shelf for about ten years until his death, it seems he wrote it during a particularly heated confrontation with his Dad over romantic issues. So perhaps it was too personal for him to put out there. youtu.be/1V0rGf9PjzI?...

There's a difference between early and late Mozart, from the prodigy toast of Royalty to the guy who fell out with his Dad, got booted down the palace stairs when his music wasn't diddly enough and predicted his own damnation when writing his requiem.
