Here in Maidstone the band are buzzing from being on Later with Jools, i can touch and feel the excitment building its so special. For me too. At the studio a sound check and a chance to catch up with everyone who i haven’t seen for ages. The team. Apart from Jools show was not around today. A nice long day bookended by a drive in the car from home and back. Home is still cold, no gas, and full of anticipation. The wedding looms like a giant peach on a sunny day. A giant loom like thing. Weather, its changing but nothing seems to be as i want it to be, no symbols of sunshine. A giant spot on my lip is depressing me, money is depressing me, im not sleeping and need a break, not from work but form me. A chance would be a fat thing. Today in other news, Margaret Thatcher passed away, she was 87. It was like having someone else’s mum running the country, you couldn’t really chip in or seem ungrateful when the biscuits that came out at tea time were not the ones you like very much. Radio goes into great depth of field when these things happen, i find myself glued to the news, the words feed and the M25 passes by without a 2nd glance.
