eagle sails the blue diamond waters (electrophonic tonic)

‘it is closing time in the gardens of the west’ - cyril connoly (on the west presumably)

horsemouth is hiding out in the green.

tuesday night horsemouth listened to robbie basho’s venus in cancer (and john fahey’s womblife).

the countryside is great - horsemouth regrets not getting out up onto the common to take a look at the sunset (but he had his facebook addiction to service).

electrophonic tonic and sister anne were the songs horsemouth recognised (played in reverse order to end out the set by london band electrophonic tonic at the clerkenwell festival on sunday - he bumped into myk there and georgina whose un-birthday it was and paul mazon and various others). the first is by sonic’s rendezvous band the other by the MC5 (from high times). he liked the band but the guitars were a bit quiet - they were followed by a band working the B52s/ suzi quatro sort of thing.

intermittently (and especially at the start) it would rain (it was probably the first time in months horsemouth has been wearing trousers).

tuesday (according to ED denison) /wednesday (according to wikipedia) was the birthday of robbie basho. horsemouth is a little too hungover to celebrate having been out to the murder mile with howard (who is back at work thursday - so this is probably the last horsemouth will see him until christmas).
