'my journal is that of me which would else spill over and run to waste, gleanings from the field which in action I reap.' - h.d. thoreau, writer's journal, 8th february 1841.
horsemouth is still feeling out of sorts. he went out for a wander on the common but was soon back. the sheep are back in the field (he'll see if his mum mentions it). today (at midday) a decarbonisation meeting on zoom.
'I remember a corner in brescia... a church in verona...'
- franz kafka, diaries, 4th november 1915.
tomorrow an interesting day for franz (but today less so).
horsemouth is up and reminiscing about the deptford free festival fired up by two old dudes discussing it. there was a whole scene down there. back to the planet were the main band to come out of it (horsemouth opines). dave (mr.social control) played there loads. the guy mentions ruff,ruff, and ready (who horsemouth thought were excellent), they later split to become fat dinosaur and the co-creators. (the co-creators were wonderful).
the guys also do the london rave and hip-hop scenes (so horsemouth will be returning to it).
horsemouth is told one of the old punk bands opens with the terrace chant of 'come and have a go if you think you're hard enough' changed into 'come and reminisce if you think you're old enough'.
