Getting over 'flu, so that's this afternoon sorted then.
I can't remember if I ordered a copy or not. Probably not! I think I planned to wait until it came out.
Any good then?
I'm saving it for after 'Any Answers?' to cheer myself up. 🙂
I think it's already on Spotify if you need a fix...
Bloody hell, it's marvellous.
Definitely a game of two halves, Nige's melancholy side is out in full force on a couple of tracks.
I think 'Slipping The Escort' might just be a classic.
Bit dusty in here.....
The days she feared are here
The easy years are gone
His ‘best before’ draws near
And warning lights are on
Effort is tiring
But then again
Just for enquiring
She’ll get a free Parker pen
The surgery leaflets
Offer advice
But there’s no preparation
For losing him twice
And now he’s washed and dressed and ready
To keep him safe she’ll face the hurt
And if she could hold that needle steady
She could sew his name into his shirt
Apart, adrift, alone
Afraid of what’s ahead
She’ll be the evil nurse
And he’ll be underfed
Conduct report
Bound to be mixed
“Lashed out during bingo”
“Said the quiz night was fixed”
Occasional sunshine
Where clarity reigns
And memories are mutual
And we’re back in the lanes
Jeanette MacDonald had Nelson Eddy
And Bobby Darin had ‘Mack the Knife’
And she had him to hold her steady
Ah sweet mystery of life
At last I’ve found you!
Thirty Airbus
Thirty Airbus
Giving it the big ‘un in the Town End seats

Oh yes, full album’s there, that’ll do for a listen after the pub tonight, then.
My copy came on Fri but haven’t had a chance to listen.
Ordered from Probe, listening now on Spotify. Good first impressions.
And there I am simultaneously reading the HMHB lyrics project site album discussion to see a RustySpanner there too. What a coincidence!
Looking forward to seeing them in concert hopefully this year so it’s on repeat today.
“It’s for the custard, dickhead”.
March 25th in Nottingham, I'll be there.
Anyone else going? If so I'll wear a carnation in my lapel for identification.
