The biggest political demonstration in British history and in predictable form, I wasn't there. Friends were, and report that it was an inspirational occasion. Early visitors, then a trip out to Sterling Books for a pleasant chat and some unintentional purchases. Later, watched England's scrappy triumph over France in the Rugby and drank too much. Watched half of a set by the always entertaining Loose Change, then far too much to eat at the Bengal Raj.
I've had a home on the web for more years than I care to remember, and a few kind souls persuade me it's worth persisting with keeping it updated. This current incarnation of the site is centred around the blog posts which began back in 1999 as 'the daylog' and continued through my travels and tribulations during the following years.
I don't get out and about nearly as much these days, but I do try to record significant events and trips for posterity. You may also have arrived here by following the trail to my former music blog Songs Heard On Fast Trains. That content is preserved here too.
