so horsemouth has a gig (maybe)

so horsemouth has a gig (maybe) - 21st july the beehive in bow 8-8.30 (hopefully not AM). he should now embark on a description of the venue and how to get there (ok it’s near bromley by bow tube - just up the hill from the gentrifier’s arms - but horsemouth can’t find the number of the bus out of hackney for you lot right now). he should be able to give you a description of the venue because lots of his friends have played there (suke, the rantipoles etc.) er... but he didn’t go so he can’t.

it has made him get the guitar out and sing and play a bit at least - and to start thinking about a set-list. it looks like andrew minty is working and howard may be ill - hmmn it may be an actual solo gig.

this morning is a grey morning (but that doesn’t prove much round here) - yesterday was perfectly sunny in the end. horsemouth only made it out as far as the garage to refuel his stash of euros. he drank one of jon’s beers to celebrate (and very tasty it was too).

today horsemouth will have to go shopping - his eaten all the obvious food only leaving the stuff that must be cooked. he will also refuel his bus card that he has rinsed with all his visits to the seaside and to cork.

he’s (nearly) finished off ship of fools from whence the unknown knowns - the stuff everyone knows but no one will say (abuses in the church, bent financiers, corrupt poiticians etc.) - fintan gives the example of an old lady asked if she believes in the fairies - oh no sir! but they’re there... the cockney equivalent is probably the charge of stating the bleedin’ obvious - laboriously pointing out what is better passed over in silence as it is assumed to be common knowledge.

last night he watched american sniper -it’s good to see people who are good at what they do (even if you think what they are doing doesn’t do any good). not sure what film this is from - any ideas?
