Anyone like to suggest a way to record the programme tomorrow?

Did someone mention they'd like to see a silver-painted lady? This is a book of photos of exactly that. It has NO CONNECTION with Frapp, so far as I know. But don't let me stop you browsing it on google images ;)

If release date really is 31st March then first gig could be March/April (tries to contain excitement..) The ToU tour kicked off well before the release date in September - a date in Bristol in June, followed by 4 dates in July. I don't know i…

I'm miffed.... ( pass me the chocolate and the lime pickle before I blow!) Folklore introduced me to Lindt D'or milk chocolate bars. They are very good for stress, but I have gone through 3 boxes of 10 in the last 6 weeks...and just order…

^ I must admit to having extensive help with the Will The Penguin and Alison the Penguin i.e. "knit one, ask my mum to do the rest of the line, pearl one, ask my Mum to...etc" These days my hands are too crook for knitting anyway.

The first day in 6 weeks I've been well enough to be out. So I drove to the lake about 10 miles away. Morning mist rose off the still surface as water rails squealed in the reeds, and a robin came to take crumbs from my hand. Then - amazing…

Just heard that myself, (well, via Mrs UT who is home today).I assume no title was mentioned? That's all I got so far, UT. But another Frapper tweeted LL earlier and LL replied: "Hopefully chatting to Alison on the programme soon"

Also, the shot of Alison (?) in the teaser makes me think that "Twin" is indeed the single title or at least a prominent lyric. Indeed, the clip has the same "Waait a minute, there's two of them!" double take moment...

I'd quite like a little teaser, first. Something along the lines of what was done for Seventh Tree where they used a loop of clowns on the website; That is fab, isn't it? Listening to that, you just knew the album was going to be specta…

Will did the music for tonight's BBC wildlife programme, "Spy in the Wild". See if this clip works for you. Couldn't help imagining Alison's voice coming in to make the sound of GF7.... https://www.facebook.com/bbcearth/vid…

Are these all Goldfrapp songs? Some fit easily but others leave me totally stumped. yep. some of them relate to lyrics - and one to an image - rather than titles

^sun dog turqs? Meanwhile, the cold air block over Europe is pushing Waxwings westwards across the UK. They have reached this part of South Wales in the last week or so.

Human demo
I won't rest until studio versions of Sartorius/Little Death/Fondue Knights are in my ears That would be fantastic, but then do I really need them? Only Fondue Knights suffers badly in the current recording (to my non-audiophile ears)
