⬆Good things currently: 

(Super) Sergio (Pia's father) back at home! Open heart surgery? A mere scratch. Socialising with his pals and drinking red wine. Get (even) well-er soon Mr P. 

Movenpick ice cream (so I'm told: I obviously only eat mung bean salad and humus: hi Pia).

P.S Diego's cafe, according to Trip Advisor, is now the # 1 restaurant in Hereford. 

About time.

Universal Works socks.

'Grinderman2 RMX'
The Barry Adamson & Sixtoes versions are particularly enjoyable.

Re-reading 'Bliss To Be Alive' by Gavin Hills (Rest In peace 
Gavin: you were a very skilled & entertaining writer)

Maharishi (Woodland camo) leather accessories.

Practising random acts of human kindness.

Just gave a fistful of school vouchers to a lady behind me in the queue at Sainsburys.

Bought two boxes go GU desserts for my mum. Her face was a picture. Couldn't make up her mind which flavour she wanted so she had them both. That's the Pryce way right there.

Furry Lip Squid - have a great birthday week and enjoy your 40s.
(Always a real hoot to have you in the team. Good attitude and not to shabby with an AR)


John Grant: 'Queen Of Denmark' 
In my all time top 20 albums. Stunning voice and able to write a lovely song or two.


'Eastbound and Down' Series 3. "I'm DJ Blu-Ray. Yeah? Well F**K you, I'm Lenny laser disc"

Carl Craig and Joey Beltram Live mixes from The Boiler Room.

Boiler Room (LINK)


Recordstore Day: Great excuse for a trip to Bristol and a Rocotillos breakfast. Those blueberry pancakes were very tasty indeed.

New series of 'Mad Men' & '30 Rock'.

EVO Eddie K9 is back.

'The Legend of Ruby Ridge' (Jon Ronson at his very best).

Bape leather shoulder bag (Bargain!)

Pia getting the little spot of grease out from my jacket collar

The power of the combover.

Black Dog - 'Dark Wave' Volume 7

Watching Cantona playing 'One In The Chamber' (Obviously a hacker)

Salted pistachios. 

Aidan John Moffat: "I Can Hear Your Heart"
Indescribable spoken word and strings album.

Tindersticks L.P.

3✰ on Black Ice with Mr Jolly.

Sunday lunch with friends.

My current Sainsbury's Nectar points balance...

⬇Not so good:

Parsley sneezing : trip to vets: £46.25 for a vitamin jab and some powdery potion to stick on his fish.

Sick cat

Work stress. In the words of the Stooges: NO FUN.

Not going to Sonar: what a stella line up this year. Never mind.

Even more people cycling on pavements. 

➡ Looking forward to:

  

'Moonrise Kingdom' (New Wes Anderson film)

Walkmen: 'Heaven' (June 4th)

Stone Roses live In Manchester (Friday 29th June). Not too enamoured about being in a field all day with no porcelain toilets but i'll weather the storm. Primal Scream and The Vaccines supporting will keep me occupied until the flat laddie sings. Will be good to have a few sherberts with Sam, Rich, Maggsy and Spencer.

Dr John: 'Locked Down': Think it was Rich Davies who recommended this chap to me many moons ago. Good call Rich. Really looking forward to this.

New Morgan Spurlock documentary series.

First pair of Grensons ('Archies') with the vibram sole rather than the crepe I think.

Holiday in Italy (July): 'Here's to swimming with bow legged women'.

Radiohead: Live - London.

James Bond: 'Skyfall'.

Losing weight, feeling a fitter and getting back into decent clothes.

'Prometheus'.

'The Twelve': Justin Cronin.

'Batman': 'The Dark Knight Rises'.

That should keep me going for a few days.
