Beautiful.

Saw Joe Jackson and his band at the Bristol Beacon a few nights ago.
What a career that man has had. Phenomenal talent, and still produces a great live performance.

I hope Andy Burnham does a brilliant job as Prime Minister.
Really don’t understand why anybody would want him to fail?

Saw Stewart Lee, the world’s greatest living stand up, in Weston Super Mare (WESTON SUPER MARE!) a few nights ago. He is SO good.
He definitely gets better and better as he gets older. Had a quick chat and asked for a photo as I am a pathetic fan boy.

Enjoyable gig tonight. Tom A Smith supported by Hunny Buzz at the Thekla in Bristol.
Very odd sensation when you realise that the musicians on the stage are young enough to be your grandchildren.

I have had this attitude for my entire working life. Explains why I never really made much of myself.
I won an award at work. Instead of it motivating me I have started doing less. Obviously I worked too hard and I'm now trying to find the right level between working and not getting fired.
