Many apologies - I didn't manage to get a show together this week after time ran away with me. I'll be back next week, but in the meantime why not take a listen to last week's Made In The UK Show 30, where I made an appearance ?

See you on Tuesday !

After the punk of last week, and following a course at IBM, my brain felt very tired and worn out and in need of a rest. Hence this week's more acoustic, laid-back feel – just the tonic for a weary mind and body, weakened by talk of ‘architected solutions', ‘cohesion' and ‘granularity'. Whatever happened to good-old plain English ?

This week, TFL comes over a bit punk. I seem to have had quite a few punk / alt-punk / ska-punk submissions recently, and I felt the time was right as I was particularly pumped-up and energetic at the time that I decided on the playlist. So, get the DMs on and start practising your best sneer as I play:

For once I feel rather short of words, though listening back to the show I somehow still manage to spout forth for the usual time ! I just put the brain into gear and the mouth goes into automatic… perhaps that's where my daughter gets it from, rather than from her mother !! Heh heh… Anyway, the ladies go first this week (I'm being well trained, you see) so let's get started
