The mist is down here and no matter how warm it still is, inside I'm starting to mourn the loss of the summer and layer up for the autumn when everything falls. If you're feeling it too I recommend #PJHarveys I couldn't have picked a better bunch of songs #Autumn open.spotify.com/playlist/4D9...

Summer's Almost Gone
A selection of tracks, chosen by PJ Harvey for Spotify.

I've never had this on vinyl probably because I was on the bones of my arse when it came out, but decided I deserved a present to myself for making it through Freshers fortnight and a wisdom tooth removal. Eating mashed up cake and custard and enjoying this. Its my favourite #Autumn #Bowie record.

Walking in the sunshine, a really good exhibition 'Art Then' at #SouthamptonCityGallery and a tip top lunch with some lifelong friends. No records today...but I did enjoy the looking. #Saturdaythoughts

Lying in bed listening to this. It feels like it pays reference to every great hiding away record you've ever played to try & mend a broken heart...but its also completely, uniquely #Beck Its utterly gorgeous & if you need a coffee, a ❤️ to ❤️ or some company Beck just drop me a line... #Sundaysounds

Long fizzy day today as we start to welcome our new students. A lovely Norwegian dad told me he loved my enthusiasm...I think its my 24th year of cranking up the enthusiasm. Despite the state of H.E. I will never not be full of enthusiasm and hope for our students future #PULP in the cans

Listening to this thinking of my Dad who always used to say 'everything in moderation'...neither of us ever quite able to balance the scales. The need for structure vs the ever siren like call of being free. This magically balances both. #jazz #Saturdaysounds #EricDolphy

Some trees are more than hedge anchors, landmarks in the lane. They stand out as guardians, green monarchs of their kingdoms. At twilight there is often a sense of them wishing to speak of what they have seen – whether to give a blessing or warning is hard to tell. – #DAKilroy, 1982

It's absolutely tanking it down with rain for the first time since May. I just opened the patio doors,stepped outside & let myself get soaked to the skin... Here's the wonderful #Beck with a sublime cover of the perfect #ScottWalker rainy day love song #Saturdaysounds youtu.be/a6nJwDrzjiE?...

Well its been the kind of day when I needed some serious Dolly energy and now I'm just in floods of tears hearing the news about beautiful Dolly. What an artist. What a kind, compassionate, generous and all round magical human being she was ✨️ 🩷 #DollyParton ##musiclovers #booklovers

I adore this record. Released in a time of bucket hats tw*ts & posturing it shone like a pool of timeless sunlight. Baroque, classical, beautiful, makes me think of Son's and Lovers,eating cherrys, rolling in the hay, high on the end of a summer that you never want to end #TheDivineComedy #Vinyl

I've been single for 6 years through choice. Still at least once a week someone asks if I want to find someone new. What they really mean is 'your nearly 50 and must be sad and lonely'. I am not. The great thing about being middle aged is you can just say f*** you to societal pressure & be free

Lots of things I had to do today but thought I'd have half an hour lying in the sun with a book first. The light is changing. Almost inperceptably, but the daylight is getting lower, shorter. I didnt move and read this whole book in one go. Please do the same its brutally beautiful ❤️ #TraceyEmin

Ironic I had just got these off the shelf feeling a pull to re read them...as some kind of government alarm goes off on my phone. They had a huge impact on 15 year old me and my views on free thinking, mind control, mass hysteria, female sexual repression, religion, power. #AldousHuxley #booklovers

Walking to work in the oppressive heat with this in the cans...perfect conditions for it. Its a cracking debut and the mind boggles at what those Knopfler fingers can do. Its a shame the 80s had to happen but this is pre sweatband magic #DireStraits #Fridaythoughts #Heat
