Nick Laird-Clowes, the posh twerp

Dear oh dear.

better move over, here comes a supernova...

It's back! Top marks to Sir Matthew Lees (it's only a matter of time that all mandarins get their KBE, isn't it) and I say it should be given in recognition of his service to the Memorable Book. I really thought it had died. I'd even taken it off my home page tabs, sick to death of only getting posts that were as bad as the junk e-mail I get telling me to "screw her all night" and Screwfix sale ads. You know you are of a certain age when those are the two most frequent junk mails you get. But here we are with a new-all-credit-crunch beating Memorable Book. It's certainly taken my mind off Brand/Ross/recession fears. Who cares that we are still in two wars, facing the most severe financial crisis since 1929 and depression still dogs me. The 'Book is back.

Well done Mas. Perhaps now some of the posts I send can get in (my rate for successful posts was about one in three!)

It is like a Born Again Memorable Book. Hallelujah!

When The Stranglers Met Roland Rat

Just noticed that this is on BBC iPlayer. So funny. It's about pop groups appearing on children's TV programmes. There's a bit where Mickey Dolenz appears on Cheggers Plays Pop - and it's one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

Also the Love documentary is currently available to watch for free at www.pitchforkmedia.com - on until Friday I believe, so get in there.

Classic

The Memorable Book

Refugees from MSN's Groups function, these Tamworth kids continue their ancient arguments over post punk rock vs 1970s nu-modernism, settle their grievances with astonished women, recommend records, books and films to each other, and swop private jokes, fuzzily remembered.

Get some in.
