Another hot day as we approach the very middle of the year, light-wise...

More mucking about with the phone - now filled with my "Top 75" from 2012 to now...

In the evening, prep for Anne's trip to the Med tomorrow with Lynn and Penny and for this week's podcast which I'll record tomorrow morning...

"CSI" enjoyed and slagged at the same time..

In footie, Costa Rica beat Italy 1-0 causing much wailing and gnashing of teeth from BBC's Italy-top-wearing-until-Costa-Rica-scored Gary Lineker and from ITV's Adrian Chiles - as said result confirmed England's early exit - after just two games...

This was widely reported as their worst performance since 1958...

It seems to have been forgotten though, that they didn't even qualify for the final stages in 1974 (just 8 years after winning the competition), 1978 or 1994 - surely those performances were worse...

And I'd say they played better this time than they have since Italia '90 when they lost on penalties in the semi-final...

Not to worry - now they're out we can relax and enjoy the football - while still counting the unnecessary references to them at every turn...

Also enjoyed was the Graham Norton show with Mrs Brown (which I've never seen), Cheryl Cole, Don Johnson, John Bishop and Chrissie Hynde - who surely ought to have changed her wardrobe between 1979 and now?

Lights out...

Highlight of the Day : Football...

Crispycat Latest Release

"I know I produce an awful lot of music, which can make it hard to keep up. But, at the end of each year since 2021, I've produced a tasty compilation ("The Originals") featuring one track from each release. So, every year, if you're only going to buy one CBQ album, make it that one!" "Twentytwentyfour: The Originals" is a 130 minute selection of tracks from the fifteen 2024 releases by Cloudland Blue Quartet. The collection is issued in anticipation of (and includes a track from) the fifteenth and final record of the year, "Twentytwentyfour", a multi disc compilation of rare and previously unreleased recordings made by CBQ throughout 2024, which is due on 31 December.

Cloudland Blue Eclectic Selection

In a one-man crusade to encourage the world to broaden its musical horizons, David has been broadcasting a weekly Eclectic Selection of music from across his vast record collection since 2014. On the programme each week, you'll hear 25 Tracks, kicking off with David's LP of the Week, followed by his six other LPs of the day, three or so CBQ, or CBQ related, tracks, a single of the week (if there is one), a couple more singles (if there are any) and a further eclectic mix of other things new into the collection... It's eclectic!
