I bought myself Hawkwind's "epocheclipse" today. It is a 3 cd compilation of 30 years of Hawkwind's music. It rocks!! Unfortunately, although the first two CD's are great, there is something odd about the third one. When I started listening to the 3rd cd I was surprised to hear someone singing in German to the accompaniment of accordion music. It made me think of blokes with big moustaches, wearing traditional German dress, dancing around with big tankards of ale!! The whole 3rd cd is full of this stuff. I think that the wrong album has been printed onto the 3rd cd!! This isn't the first time I have encountered this sort of thing...I once bought an album by The Cult, only to discover upon putting it on the cd player that the cd actually had a Belinda Carlisle album on it!!!
Oh well, I guess I will have to take it back to the shop. The problem is that if this has happened to my copy of epocheclipse, then it will probably have happened to all of the cds printed in that batch, so I will have to be careful not to end up with another faulty copy.
Meanwhile, you know how whenever anyone allows their van (or any other vehicle) to become dirty, there's always someone who has to trace words and stuff onto the side? Today I witnessed an elderly couple doing just that!! While people were getting onto the bus, this old bloke and old woman were stood at next to the bus laughing and doing something. When I looked closer, I realised that the old bloke was 'writing' by tracing letters in the dirt on the side of the bus while the old woman was laughing really loud and pointing it out to her friends!!

Re: Laptop. I'm wedded to my computer. Almost all of my alone time is spent in front of a screen. I've accepted that, so now that I have a small, light notebook I go out to coffee shops, bars, etc. and work on revisions instead of sitting at home playing crappy video games.
