I listened to this last night and enjoyed it immensely. I thought at 75 minutes I would lose interest but it kept on building. 1985 so assume the humour of the time with a literary bent. I will try more of Ken Whitmore www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

While the UK and Aus pussyfoot around Trump looks like Canada are up for the fight. Good on 'em. 100% tariff on Tesla's. You bet www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02...

Listening to the #JohnPeel# festive 50 from 1978. This is where the old guard retreats and the new folk jump in. But before that a few highlights from 76. So Little Feat, Layla, Zep, Neil Young, Siouxsie and The Jam. Sessions from X-ray Spex and Steel Pulse. Tomorrow. I can hardly wait

www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... This is a pleasant listen on Christmas morning

I went for a run this morning. Got overtaken by 2 people - a young bloke with no shirt and a girl taking the dog for a run. Both showed me a clean pair of heels. Fashion note about the latter: she had her blonde pony tail dyed pink likewise doggie's tail.

Listening to John Peel's festive 50 from 1980. Lots of memories. Siouxsie is prominent, as are @theclash.com Oh, here's Julian Cope
