Expensive hobby. I live in Cornwall now which, concert wise, is probably very similar to Alaska. I normally fly up to Liverpool for concerts and justify the cost by catching up with family and friends. This week I'm seeing The Wombats and Sting...

Morning everyone, I try to make a point of reading every post that I've missed the previous day when I awake. This morning I was struck by Val and @peteblue posts and reminded of lines by two of my favourite lyricists. For Val it's Paul Simon...

I bought a load of reduced price blackberries the other day, now nestling in the freezer. They are humongous, about twice the size of the ones I pick in autumn. Anyway, torn between making blackberry gin, which I've done before ; absolutely...
