Some years ago, while we were in San Francisco, we paid a visit to an area called Twin Peaks, which is an undeveloped high point on the edge of the city with great views. There was about 12 Cop cars there and loads of cops all very happy and congrat…

I ordered an original vinyl pressing of Black Cherry from Mute back in the day, and I received 3 pin badges with the Alisons legs with scratches wearing red glitter high heels image as a freebie. Still have them and one is on my jacket I wear most d…

It is SM but I view it as a closed society. A bit like those fancy gated communities that rich people live in where people guard the way in. You still need an external site to post photos but you can do it from Flickr but it is not easy; at least no…

Black Cherry Purple vinyl re-issue
I’ve ended up with two; neither of which had the signed insert. I’ve seen posts from @A_is_A and Madge Cuzak on Twitter and both had the signed insert.

Bless you Kat! What she doesn’t tell you, assembled #FrappFam, is that she kindly sent me one of her paintings. It now sits on the wall in our hall, right by the side of one of Lisa’s (Mrs UT). Hope my little Llama trinket turned up last week Ms KR…

Interesting point. Has anyone ever found someone with exactly the same birthday as you; same day, month and year? I have. My next door neighbour (anyone remember @Appy61 ?) has a lady from the village who comes in to dogsit for them when they go awa…

Just to let everyone know I’ve been in contact with @KatRobin. She’s had a bit of a torrid time since the beginning of the year, so has not had the time to come onto here. She’s alright though and pulling through and hopes to get back on here soon b…

Album 8
Looking back a past albums, they always seem to be prefixed by Alison touring around gathering influences, which is what she appears to have been doing for the last 18 months, really since the end of the last tour. When Will says they have been on a…

A diagnosis is presenting 5 or more of these. He's a slam dunk for all 9!

Occhams Razor suggests that Trump is just an extreme right wing capitalist who is obsessed with white being right, the advancement of his personal fortune and adulation by people who tell him he is great. If you look up the typical manifestations o…

Black Cherry Purple vinyl re-issue
From the blurb with this one, they are reissuing them all one at a time on coloured vinyl. I guess they started with BC because FM was released not the long ago on white vinyl so that may come again at the end.

I feel it's our public duty; all of us, wherever we are, to speak up for fairness, against corruption and criminality, and to nail this constant barrage of lies and propaganda that is intended to distort people perceptions of what is really goi…

A different kind of war is being waged. What annoys me the most is, at our level, the public level, it is one of hearts and minds and a lot if the public are so easily duped by lies and propaganda. Many of them have become emboldened to be seen as o…

Rutger Hauer was such a menacing character as android Roy Batty in Blade Runner. Hard to believe he was 75. Mind you, when you realise the film was made 37 years ago in 1982, I suppose he would have to be. Might have to give it a watch this weekend…

Thought this thread should have a bump in the current situation with Boris Johnson becoming British PM. 'They say he's the British Trump' says the orange overlord. 'That's what they want; they really like me over there'…
