I got this little hi-res music player. It sounds great but the user interface would have been considered crap fifteen years ago.

I get a lot of emails that are meant for people with a similar name to mine. Do people really sign up to things with the wrong email address or do people just guess at another’s address?

Some of the messages are updates and newsletters with no unsubscribe option. I’ve noticed many need the recipient to log into an account before making changes. Those ones are getting marked “spam”.

My original copy of Rush’s 2112. I got this as an end of term school prize. It’s nearly forty years old and still in decent condition.

It’s not my favourite Rush album but it brings back memories, good and bad, of those days.

I loved Rush so much I organised a coach to go from my town to the Royal Exhibition Hall in Edinburgh (Signals tour). I was young and naive. About six people turned up. The driver took us but must have taken pity because I don’t remember much trouble over payment.

I see someone’s trying to start a boycott of the Mail/Sun etc again. People buy those rags because they like the contents. What’s the point of boycotting something you wouldn’t buy anyway?

This is really very good despite the garish cover.

I was a bit dubious about wireless ear buds but the Cambridge Audio ones are really good. Good sound and comfortable in the ears.

I became a gin drinker this year. Does it come with age? Cheers!
