this had better not be another cold

What kind of a sneaky cold just sneaks off to the background for a week, then leaps in again on a Monday morning? Prescriptions please.

Mia and I saw Not Quite Hollywood on the weekend. I wrote about it at Sarsaparilla (see right).

Now I am going to ride my bike home from work and kill that cold on the way.

sophie c here: my cold has been lurking for 4 weeks. it is INFURIATING. people tell me it's a virus, not a cold, thus its particularly bad behaviour.

hi David,
as the music/composer i agree with you about the early/late 1970s music thing. The original deal was that all music had to be from Alberts, which was cool and i picked all Vanda & Young obscurities like Marcus Hook Roll band and Stevie Wright stuff, but then the producers struck a different deal and all that went out the window. So there is merit to your comment. Plus i hate The Angels & even Rose Tattoo. I love dragon. Of course my own soundtrack music sounded perfectly like anonymous early 70’s sub-ted-Mulry/morning of the earth rock! So much so that most people can’t tell difference. Not you though - you like Bakery- who did a rock-mass concept record. Heatwave is so naff on so many levels as i overheard a young person say on the train yesterday. Mark Hartley has enough good material for a 4 hour series/dvd. don’t know if it will happen? The producers hassled him over the cut - also there was hardly any budget. My criticism would be the editing is so fast it gets visually draining, but I’m old & from the early 1970s. didn't get to new estate gig - Mia said they wouldn't be playing till after midnight, which is way past my bed time.

the early 70s was all juxtaposition

October 1970, everyone had their arms out in the air, from Barbra to, um, whoever that is on the left, to Thumbelina. This is from the Sprin...
