A'm a Amazon Man

Horrah! for Amazon finally letting us UK citizens get our paws on their huge supply of MP3s. There are some great bargains to be had like Laurie Anderson's United States Live boxed set for £9.99.

I've noticed a few errors however, check out the following.


That second track is rather long. And the album is available on CD! So that's a 30 inch diameter CD I guess.

Also there is some rather expensive applause.



I think that it should be a free download, but here they are charging you £9.49 for under a minute of applause!

Anyhow, getting the likes of Jethro Tull's "Thick As A Brick" for under £3 shows that despite some of the more expensive choices, there are plenty of great downloads to find.

PS. Any ideas why my images are appearing fuzzy?? (OK when you click on 'em!)
PPS. Sorted!!

Eggstremely quick?

A quick round-up.

On the 2nd January 2009 I saw Easter Eggs for sale in two separate supermarkets.
Next month it will be Halloween stuff, but be quick to buy, they need the space for Xmas 2009.

My eyesight is rather swiftly failing. I now have a pair of glasses for seeing things sharply over four feet away, like the back of lorries.

The drugs don't work. After being stuck on a variety of Prozak over Yule, I found it disrupted my sleep so much I ended up being a zombie. So bang goes that idea. I'll stick to plenty of water as it seems to be a great way to stay healthy.

I found a great source of music - WM Recordings
I am enjoying the Meanwhileproject.ltd album "Today Is Sunday" at the moment. It is described as "An electronic-organic-independent-pop-alternative-folk-ambient album, not more or less" and I have to agree, but delightful with it.
