You'd think with all my 'big' problems
I would scarcely have time for the minutiae, but apparently I do. Perhaps I'm subconsciously distracting myself from the things that really matter by getting wound up about silly little things like Bowie.

Speaking of which,
How's ting with the Twincubator?

She was an arsehole on the weekend
but I did get my visit. She fails to see how telling me she may move to Canterbury as a matter of reasonable urgency might upset me, the self-obsessed spastic. If she takes Len away I don't know what I shall do.

Shit, you don't drive do you
How long on the train to that part of Kent then?
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Mon 19 Apr 2010, 10:34, Reply)

Nope. 1h 20 mins out of London Bridge - 20 mins on the bus from mine.
And not cheap either.

Surely she wouldn't be able to manage
I mean she'd be doing herself out of a spare pair of hands/babysitter, once she has two new babies to look after?

Doesn't her family live in Canterbury?
Is that why she wants to move there?
( girlinthehole, Mon 19 Apr 2010, 10:39, Reply)

Yup, that's it.
I do actually understand that she'd need her family's help with twins (she's not with the dad - I expect he dumped her for being a psycho like I did), and also schools etc are better out of London, but I'll be heartbroken. I might have to move there too.

It's quite like Winchester, where I grew up (amongst other places).

It's where Chickenlady and PJM live
you could become friends with them. They are both lovely.

You're just trying to get me out of London.

With you gone

I went there last year to visit Chickenlady and PJM.
Nice place. Just the right size to wander about and not get lost.

Some lovely pubs.
I am also very interested in the 'Canterbury Scene' of the late 60s/early 70s (bands like Caravan and the Soft Machine), so I could get into researching that in detail.

Maybe a fresh start away from all my drug dealer pals would be a good thing as well.

That's the ticket.
Positive thinking.

Now all I have to do is practice what I preach : )

Camel?
Fond memories of "The Snow Goose" right there.

Were they from Canterbury?
Those first three albums are superb - a great example of what prog rock could have been before it disappeared up its own arse.
(LongJohnBaldry, Mon 19 Apr 2010, 11:37, Reply)

They were,
So was Steve Hillage.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Mon 19 Apr 2010, 11:43, Reply)

That was the reason for the question mark.
Originally Guildford but often mentioned in the same breath as doyens of the Canterbury scene.

Good band, Camel

Len - makes her sound like an old boy drinking ale in a flat cap.

( Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Mon 19 Apr 2010, 10:36, Reply)

It does rather, doesn't it.
Perhaps it's the incongruity that makes me like to call her Len.
