    Datura = Trip OD
    <wrong head or wrong thread?>

    I almost went and saw Dave when he played in a large cupboard in Chchch last week (or the week before, maybe), but it rained… last time I saw him may have been in Wellington in the ’80s, when passed through with The Chills (I think) – one of those tours done by relocating a campervan from Dunedin to Auckland, it already had a rubber duck super-glued to the bonnet by the time I was picked up for a floating poker game round the town…

  • Hard News: Notes in My Pocket,

    In my pocket...

    a sort of note in a bottle, set adrift on the seas of commerce.

    That's one sanguine penguin...*
    and Ed has got his back!

    ...which is as good a reason as any to reconnect with
    Trillion's (Jody Lloyd) 'Humble Mountain Man' tribute
    Nice to see it is edging up towards 100,000 views
    (I strike another small blow for immortality at 2.24!)

    *Is there a law that says all penguins should be orange on paper?

    What's really in my pocket?
    - 2 plastic bags
    - a list of things to do
    - house & car keys
    - camera
    - phone
    - biro
    - sharpie
    - a licorice allsort
    - wallet
    - handkerchief
    - at last the keys for my lock up
    - a lot of Dr Haywood's last remaining chimney
    - and a hole, too...

  • Capture: Two Tripods, One Night, in reply to David Hood,

    trees a crowd...

    Floodlit trees ... one winter’s night ...

    There is a horror omnibus
    out there waiting for this
    freezing frisson of a fractal
    for its cover...

    ...actually Martin Phillipps (Chills) does
    a good line in modern horror stories
    and I believe is responsible for this image...
    which I'll call "One Tripod, One Night..."
    :- )

    ( thanks to the fine poster archiving of TallyHo )

  • Cracker: Dinner and a Show (Everybody’s…, in reply to Russell Brown,

    kick 'em in the private sector....

    And as I note above, PPPs don’t tend to provide those ways.

    That makes me feel so much more unreassured about the proposed PPP Charter Schools, Prisons and probably Hospitals and ACC coming down the pike...

    ... trying to eek out a living on past glories

    At a scratch one might eek a mouse
    but one would always eke a living...
    ;- )

    Though Linger makes a good point for skewed context...
