Shakespear's Sister - Stay

Big Al Green - Lets Stay Together

Phil Oakey & Georgio Moroder - Together In Electric Dreams

My God, what a troubled soul Mary Isobel Catherine Bernadette O'Brien aka Dusty Springfield was. Her childhood was a strange one with the somewhat bizarre behaviour of her parents but in her adult life she battled with demons of alcohol, drugs, multiple personalities and her sexuality. A really troubled individual who attempted suicide on more than one occasion she possessed possibly one of the best female voices this country ever produced. I am too old to remember her at her peak in the 60's but this book provided a great insight into the peaks and throughs of her life.

Yep. Agreed.

Oasis - She's Electric

Read that on my kindle a few weeks ago. Excellent book that highlights what pretty much any parent would do to save their child, even the most law abiding human being. The added benefit for me was the setting, not exactly a million miles from my adopted home, meaning that I could literally live the location. Currently reading "Dead Men And Broken Hearts" by Craig Russell which is the fourth book in the Lennox series which I would highly recommend.

Not actually sure he has been sacked given Howe set the ball rolling on this after the sales of Gordon & probably even more so, Tonali 🤔

The Beatles - She's Leaving Home

Eddie Howe sacked by barcodes

Was actually starting to think the same, we do need to see more going out the door to free up wages etc totally agree on the winger statement. The lad Smith from Livi might be decent but Yogane on the other side .................. although I am nae fully writing him off YET !!!!!!! I am nae hudding ma breath that he will prove to us he is anywhere near any sort of upgrade on Topi (hope to fk I am wrong but I just canna see it) Not all signings will always be great, and to be fair to Robinson and everyone involved, most of our signings so far do seem to be an upgrade on last season (that being said it's a pretty low bar to be fair) Not convinced with Mouloua either, but time will tell. Anyway 9.5 (decent enough looking at this stage) out of 11 signed is not too bad a strike rate

Cody Jinks - Leaving Is Your Only Chance

I read shy Creatures last year, quite liked it

I’ve just finished William McIlvanney’s loon Liam’s The Good Father on audiobook from the toon library, very worthwhile. I’m currently in stop-start mode with James Leslie Mitchell’s Stained Radience, as due to my appalling sleeping pattern, I’m struggling a little with it. It looks like a decent shottie at a big story before he hit the mother lode three years later John of John (Douglas Stuart’s latest) is doing the audiobook thing well in my lugs. Again, due to anarchic sleeping shenanigans, though, I’m fighting a losing battle with Clare Chambers’ Shy Creatures (i-Pad/E-book). I’ve has a massive and ruthless clear-out in recent months which has seen the British Heart Foundation charity shop near the Union Street Co-opy benefit by nearly 150 books, along with probably about a hunner CDs. Ye canna tak it wi ye.

It's on my brain implant.

Amazingly, Hearts are favourites for this match. We’re currently about 2/1 for the win. Having some of that!

Hope your ticket is not on your phone.

I gave it 5⭐️ - I thought the premise was extremely clever, and the Inundation and Derangement cleverly thought and used to great effect in searching for the corona sonnet. The characters were a parade of misfits, geniuses, victims and utter fucking radges. I think the author’s back on form, and WWCK and Machines Like Me are classic McEwan. Hud gan wi it min.

Be still my beating heart 🫡😁

Watched them again last night. Sturm Graz are decent & certainly better than us, but that Hearts team is not good. Wide open on the flanks, absolutely nothing in centre mid, nothing up front and not particularly dominant at the back. Apart fae that. They are definitely there for the taking on Saturday. Get in their faces, play with physicality and intensity (unlike last year, we can actually do this now) move the ball quickly and get it in the box, the 3 points is absolutely there for us…

ABBA - Take a Chance

A-ha - Take On Me

Steely Dan - Don't Take Me Alive

It's all gone very quiet on the transfer front the past week or so. Had hoped to see some more movement out the door at least and our need for another winger hasn't gone anywhere.
