  1. Where are the anthem?

    Don't me wrong I love a good banger of a tune, but where are they? I don't like the "clubbing" part of the dance, rave, trance, house scene. The sweaty, dark room and high as a kite on something synthetic, never been my cuppa and I can't dance for the life of me anyway. But I loved to end the working week by putting on BBC Radio One's Essential Selection hosted by Pete Tong, as I drove home from work.

    When I watch a live set from the BoilerRoom, Cream (when it was around still), Ibiza, Miami etc. - I tend to put these tunes on when needing to do some tedious work or cleaning the HQ. I truly do like the "modern" dance/rave music, some good DJs and artists out there for sure - I see people who are at least 30+ years younger than me, enjoying themselves dancing to some good tunes.

    The only time I see the audience really go mad and dance their socks of is when the DJ drops in a bit of Saltwater by Chicane, Papua New Guinea by Future Sound of London, Insomnia by Faithless, Children by Robert Miles, Sandstorm by Darude to name but a few anthems into their live set. You know music that's 25-30 years old, and just one note from these send goosebumps all over my body. And often turning it to 11 isn't enough ;) Else it just looks like a normal night out, for a bit of a boogie, don't the youth have any anthems?

  3. Good morning tooters. I’m dawdling today because it’s Saturday & because I can although I have done 2 loads of washing & got it on the line. It’s about 6c right now & we’re heading to a lovely 17c & getting a tiny bit warmer in the next day or so as well.
    In the last couple of days I decided that when I put my heater on I’d use my ceiling fan as well. I know it’s supposed to make a difference but thought that in my tiny place it wouldn’t. I was wrong, it definitely does. I turned the heater down a degree & I’m still nice & warm. Won’t need the heater for much longer anyway but it’s good to know.
    Going out for a family dinner tonight at the local club. All my immediate family will be there except the 2 eldest grandchildren. They have other things on as usual - busy being teenagers 😂. I’m looking forward to going anyway.
    Have a great weekend everyone. #SpringIsComing #WelcomeToTheWeekend
