I have discounted all representations. I know that Levon, Song for Guy, Philadelphia Freedom, Pinball Wizard and countless others are all g

Got a couple of weeks off now. Which I need to recover from the government emergency alarm arriving just as I was driving, alone, over Exmoor. Blaring out of my watch, and phone, simultaneously. And when I glanced at the screen, it was all in Welsh. Baffling. Anyway, stay safe and cool.WE LEARNED… how to pull a radio together at short notice: I had been in Exmouth for less than an hour, and had just taken a sip from my second pint, when the text arrived. The prime minister was not coming. The pl
