Happy Birthday To Us!

Long time no blog.  Lots going on, much of it unbloggable and so perhaps my longest gap between blogs so far. 

Have thought once or twice about what to blog but nothing has really grabbed.  Did wonder this morning about blogging on it being David Bowie's birthday (a date he shares with Shirley Bassey and Elvis Presley) but what to say.

Then, lo... in an interview today with Radcliffe and Maconie, Peter Hook mentions on 6Music that David Bowie has a new single out today!  Happy Birthday to us!  I'll have to catch the rest of that interview later because it's straight on to the interweb for me to find it. 

"We Are We Now?" is the Duke's wistful offering, his first single in ten long years.  Musically it sounds like he's picked up where he left off and the even better news is that an album is due out in a couple of months time.  I'll be queueing at Woolworths for it!

Fun to funky

Another occasion where I wonder what they teach in schools these days. I have a wonderful woman who has started as my administrator and two months in I was delighted by her great work.

Then today I played her Ashes to Ashes by David Bowie and she said she had never heard of it before. True she is still under forty, but I ask you. No wonder the clown looks sad.

I assured her that I would write a good reference.
