    39 years ago today I was in my car when the news came through that one of my heroes has been shot dead :emoticon-0106-cryin
    This track seemed to sum up how he’d just got his life sorted out and was finally content ....

    Can anyone tell me that John didn’t really write this for his boy? If julian really did write it, how come he never managed to do anything more like this? Maybe I’m doing him an injustice but it sounds like a John song to me ....

    I think not, they'd be turning back before they arrived December not the best time of year for atlantic crossings, They live on a Dutch barge pretty much off grid solar power, composting toilet and so on. I try not to think about what the home grown veg was planted in.

    Just as a bit of fun, can anyone spot a link between this track and the picture I posted on Art & Literature to mark Beddy’s birthday?

    Correctamundo! The Bonzo’s multi-instrumentalist is the son of the artist Ruskin Spear.
