The sun has got his hat on etc etc. Ludicrous song. What kind of hat could possibly endure such temperatures? And surely if the sun wore a hat it would cast a shadow thus negating the celebration of all things sunny and leave the song redundant. So said headgear would have to be removed and the song wouldn't exist. All a bit paradoxical. And 'coming out to play'? Playing with the sun would be a health and safety nightmare. I just want it to sit in the sky and burn me.
Basically I'm just trying to say it's a nice day which meant the walk home through town was a nightmare. The masses of Donny had hit the streets to stare at cauliflowers and moan about the Primark window display. A 6'5" yeti with bags under his eyes scowling at people wasn't made at all welcome.
Some bugger's drunk my coffee. Two secs.
I'm waffling 'cos my head's not in gear. I'm waiting on two new tracks from Bang Bang Romeo to turn up in my inbox. It's all a bit expectant fatherish.
Back to whatever it is I'm waffling about. The hampered walk through town. Chaos at clock corner. The jewellers was all police taped off causing one old woman to ask, 'Do they do this every Friday?' Got to the Frenchgate centre. Between the 48k fixing watches and the Famous Villain selling kitchens is my nemesis. The escalator. Something about them bothers me. Think it all stems back to the public safety film from when I was a kid which basically showed a doll getting mutilated by an escalator.
Just tried to text the word Wakefield to someone and my phone insisted it should say Weak Fishes.
I think my point about the whole weather thing is that I have the back door open but the slice of banana cake next to me has attracted every wasp this side of Donny. Gits.
Looking like a promising weekend then. A busy one too. Tonight it's The Darlingtons, Laurel Canyon, The Coopers and Jack's House at The Leopard. Tomorrow morning 'Guitar' George Borowski is playing at Electro Music, then in the afternoon it's the Polish Festival at The Keepmoat, which I may end up working at, or Crooked Ways festival in Pontefract if promised press pass ever shows up, though I'm on the guest list (my two favourite words again) for Dexters in Weak Fishes tomorrow night, then Sunday night back to work.
It's all go. Speaking of which I must dash 'cos I'm meant to be filming with The Darlingtons this afternoon.
