Walter beat me to the post when he blogged October (Love Song) by Chris and Cosey a few days ago- a beautiful 1983 single from two members of Throbbing Gristle.

From today I'm off on holiday for a week, staying in Scarborough in North Yorkshire, so there'll be nothing here until next weekend. Be good.

ReplyDeleteHave a good week SA. I love Scarborough, a favourite holiday destination for our family before we started going to Cornwall. Much closer and fond memories of the big car park at Scotch Corner where you always met someone you knew on the way home.
