My life in song and pictures 2
Lent was a pretty boring title for this series so this is longer but says more.
This song from 1963 marked the start of my life-long love of the Beatles.

The thoughts of me and my dog who used to be Harvey, but is now George, who is Harvey's great-great-great-great-nephew.
I had to stop reading at one point ... as I was laughing too much to see the words!

That is the charm of This Time Next Year by Liz Hinds. You want to go shopping with Aliss and her friends, help her sort out her relationships, and throttle her son--oops!

It is a great read. Made me laugh and cry.

The Beatles - always reminds me of home, the front room, Mum's old big stereogram thing and this and Manfred Man, Procul Harem etc. as I moved through the 60s... I was born in 62.
I remember them playing Hey Jude on TOTP - must have been one of the last things they did I suppose. Before I'd turned 10 they'd gone, then so had Hendrix and I'd heard him on Lulu's show and gone - WHAT ON EARTH IS THAT! I wanna do that! Never really did though - he was a one off
The very first record I ever owned!

Hendrix was definitely unique, furtheron.
Happy memories, Peter.
Takes me right back to high school.
