I went to see a couple of films last weekend with the missus. First one was Sideways, which I thought was good. I don't really go for most comedy films, the kind of slapstick humour that seems to be all pervading these days doesn't really appeal to me. I had seen one of the directors previous films (Election) and I really enjoyed it and Sideways was also enjoyable. It was kind of slow, but I liked that and it built up to be very funny indeed by the end. There was a touch of melancolia about it as well which I liked. Overall - 7/10 A couple of days later we went to see Sahara after finding ourselves at a loose end. It was a complete load of pish but was enjoyable in a brainless kind of way. It's the kind of film you'd watch on telly when you've nothing to do and relatively enjoy it. I'd give it 5/10.

I am listening to the incessant buzz of the office. When I got up this morning I listened to When The Levee Breaks by Led Zep B)

Psycho Killer - Talking Heads, from the soundtrack to Stop Making Sense

Isaac Hayes - Walk On By Feckin' genius B)

Tender - Blur

Natalies Party - Shack

The Smiths - The Boy With The Thorn in his Side

Gang of Gin - Babyshambles

I might try and get tickets for The Tears (Bernard Butler and Brett Anderson from Suede's new band) in Edinburgh in February. How was Babyshambles pilsner? You should be glad he turned up!

'For Lovers' - Wolfman ft. pete Doherty

Going to see REM (Loch Lomond) and Oasis (City of Manchester stadium).

The Vines - In The Jungle (off Highly Evolved)

Oasis - SUpersonic

I'm not listening to anything at the moment, but I bought the new Manics album (Lifeblood) and an old Nick Cave album (Murder Ballads) at lunchtime, so I'll be listening to them tonight

What a great tune The incessant buzz of the office

Time For Heroes - The Libertines

I bought the album for a fiver in a sale, it's class, although I can understand why lee Mavers didn't like it - some of the production is a little 80s (just a little, mind). There She Goes is a classic Jim, you miserable sod Death on the Stairs - The Libertines

Doledrum - The La's

That's the gay-est song ever I am listening to the humdrum buzz of the office, but at lunchtime I listened to the superb new LIbertines single, Can't Stand Me Now

There She Goes - The La's

The Kinks Are The Village Green Preservation Society

London's Burning - The Clash

The Sex Pistols - Liar

Death On the Stairs - The Libertines

The first Suede album
