Money, so they say, is the root of all evil today
It's budget day so this seems an obvious one.
This morning I got a cheque I've been waiting for for some time. I've felt like Adrian Mole waiting for the Giro; checking the post obsessively. And now I have it. And nothing's changed. The things that matter still matter. And it's not with all the money in the world I can change the things in the past. I can use it to pay for therapy to make them easier.
What I really wanted to see on my doormat wasn't there.
This was taken at Banksy's awesome exhibition last year; in which he took over the Bristol Museum. He said "This is the first show I've ever done where taxpayers' money is being used to hang my pictures up rather than scrape them off." here. I'm quite excited about when the film: Exit Through The Gift Shop comes to Cornwall.
I'm a massive fan of Pink Floyd. You couldn't grow up in the household I did and get away with not being. I tried when I was a young teen - just to be contraversial - but as I got older I appreciated their originality and the lyrical diversity between the different writers. Just don't get me started on the Gilmour vs. Taylor debate when I've had one too many Old Rosies
Unless you were born on another planet - or perhaps fairly recently - you will already know this track comes from Dark Side of the Moon. If you've got a spare 45 mins the best experiment on the internet is watching the mash up of this album with The Wizard of Oz and trying to find the similarities. Loads of blog posts discuss this further or give you a helping hand. Like this one.
