@variablepulserate Hmm. Tomorrow is never guaranteed. But all being well I’ve got another 20+ years. Which isn’t all that long, really. I don’t want to live to be very old - I’m decrepit enough already!

@phoneboy Everything gets dragged down to the lowest common denominator, it seems to me. But, then, back to the privileged white elite thing again.
The only consolation is that, all things being equal I won’t be here to see how bad it gets.
First they’ll let 16 year olds vote, then they’ll remove the vote from older people under some pretext of irrelevance. Assisted dying seems to be coming in across the world. Whilst I don’t want to see anyone suffer & die horribly, it’s a very slippery slope (in my opinion). Much cheaper to suggest euthanasia than treatment…).

Been feeling the need to drink redbush/rooibos tea of late. Guess I'll have to pop and get some tomorrow then.
@variablepulserate Well I have to admit the only ones I’ve been to were a couple in London - Irish (mostly) festival the Fleadh. I say mostly, because I saw Crowded House there one year. Actually, I really used to enjoy them, but that’s when I was 30 years younger without such dodgy joints and didn’t mind sitting on grass all day. I think I went in ‘94 & ‘95. Good times.

@variablepulserate I think that happens at a lot of festivals. Not at concerts, but definitely at festivals. People just wander from field to field to tent, to listen to their chosen bands. Mind you, I often found that my faves seemed to be on at the same time in different places. 🙄

@jussipekonen I'm sure they are. Metal fans tend to be a decent bunch of people.
@jussipekonen Thanks, I’ll give them a try. Of course, Nightwish are still my favourite. 😀
@jussipekonen Nice. Just looked at the lineup - I know and like Sonata Arctica and Stratovarius.
@peemee It’s the humidity that gets to me in hot weather. Dry heat is easier to handle - up to a point. The relative humidity here rarely goes below 50% and is generally 70% or more. I guess that’s what you get for living on a fairly small island.
