    Serioddly? Oh **** PL. She's probably spent a week moaning about you to her mates and they told her just to be normal and friendly when you next met. Classic case of her avoiding the awkwardness. Were her teeth gritted?

    I guessed. Meanie :p

    But in terms of giving her space, I agree. That's why I didn't ask her if she wanted to do something last night. But I intend to ask her before the end of term, just for like drinks or cinema, something super caz, before we head back home.

    Of course.... Had to be done. Although I'm sure he knew.

    It is a theory though...

    A highly implausible and unlikely theory! (But yes, hence using 8 exclamation marks in two sentences)

    Bit late to the guitarists conversation. Lots of great names mentioned already. I'll add Steve Hillage and Nick Drake to the personal pleasure list. Hillage for his creamy screams from the guitar when playing within Gong's line-up, and Nick Drake for being just so damned unconventional and original with his tunings and beautiful playing. Of course Drake used to use a Guild M20, so the depth of sound was always going to be top notch.

    If we are going into the virtuoso stuff then I've got to add acoustic percussion guitarists Andy McKee and the late Michael Hedges. McKee can make the most astonishing fingerwork on the fretboard, keep bang on time, and make it seem like it is effortless, and Michael Hedges was able to sound as though there were three guitarists playing, when he was doing every part at the same time.

    And I'm going to mention Justin Sandercoe too. No, he's not the greatest ever guitarist, but he's no mug either. In fact, he's very capable indeed. Plus he's taught what must be millions of people, by now, how to play guitar, and if that isn't a contribution to music, then I don't know what is.

    Although in no way am I making a comparison, I hear that Victor has received loads of support and good advice from his Saints teammates this week after his recent burglary.

    Had to listen to my multimedia journalism lecturer criticise that film for about 15 minutes last week. Enjoy. :)

    I understand that it isn't flawless, DTLW. However, it is cinematic, according to Mark Kermode, which is a bit of a virtue of a film to be seen at the cinema. :)
    The Imitation Game
    is probably a far better film, but I suspect one can wait for a smaller screen to view that. I might still go to see that too though.
