It's great. Was nominated for several Oscars.

Didn't know that, yes a brilliant film, stuck in my head the last few days. Can't wait to rewatch it from scratch and complete it

Sepultura - Roots 0/10
Why listen to an album I have zero appreciation for? A fella at work handed me this out of the blue having waited six months for it to arrive from Brazil where his missus knows Andreas' family, who signed it. And included a plectrum. Fuck!  So yeah, the least I could do was take it home an spin it. Once.

I bought the EP or CD maxi single of the same name at the time.  Yes, 0/10 is all it deserves, the reviews on Metalarchives are gas, from 0% up to 90%+. The writing was on the wall where they were heading after Arise

Faith No More – King For A Day Fool For A Lifetime on 2nd hand CD.

Started watching a film on a flight last week, miscalculated the film duration versus flight time so got half way through watching a Portuguese language film called 'Secret Agent' its set in Brazil in the 70s during the dictatorship.  It's 98% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Tuatha De Danann - The Dance Of Little Ones

Brazilian madness!  These fellas were mentioned on the old MI forum

'Obedience' — Wong Siu-pong's film explores life in the shadows of a rapidly developing corner of Kowloon. beautifully shot documentary

On CD 'Non-intentional lifeform' - Uisce, Irish Australian band on Roadrunner Records.  He had another band called Clann Zú who were on the same label as Propagandi

Bluetooth portable CD player for the new work  vehicle. Thinking of getting a tape player as well

Long plane trip tiday with the usual Marvel limited choices on the seat back screen - spotted a film called Bugonia - no idea what I was getting.  Enjoyed it though I have no idea what it's supposed to mean.

This just got released this morning. Really interesting digging into it finding my grand parents and their families recorded in it when they were 3/4 years old. Anyone dig into it?

Downloaded a few pages from my father's side of the family.  I'll probably have to print out the two earlier census records to get the bigger picture.  I'll be honest the earlier Brit censuses seem to have a bit more information than the Free State 1926 effort - at least for the townland I was looking at

Shocking about Michael Lyster, he can't have been too old

Such ballbag behaviour. It's so strange, I thought that kind of basic manners was beaten into all kids by their parents- I know it was for me. So that kind of entitlement would give me a twitch  it would take a force if will not to give a smile and a wave to a neighbour for a start, nevermind someone who is doing me a favour. The dude was middle aged. He wasn't a little bratty teenager!

They're quare enough all right.  I have a neighbour across the road from me who parks on the street, when he's getting in and out of the car he has the head down, won't look left or right to give a nod even though I'm out cutting the hedge or working in the garden, a few metres away.  I call out hello to him anyway, not to be dragged down to that level of English protestant behaviour.

Dokken - Tooth & Nail. Bouffant hair aside this is some manly heavy Metal from 1984, great stuff
Rage - The Missing Link.
Valutir - Exobnos

Reverend Bizarre - In rectory of Bizarre Reverend. Quare stuff to be listening to driving 110klm
Skyclad - In the All Together. 2009 album, I'd sort of given up with Skyclad but this CD is I think a great effort, very enjoyable
