I haven't had a DJ play a request since I was 14 and calling into WCNI asking for Robyn Hitchcock songs. Well, I was chuffed to bits last week, that my friend @SimonPhilo on wonderful @RadioMatlock played an Evie Sands cut for me. Listen here: mixcloud.com/radiofreematloc…

This morning @pop_society has been mostly .. tending to estate business. More specifically, planting crops in the lower field. A few pics then, before the birds, slugs and badgers arrive. Just so I’ve got proof that I did make the effort. (Ted not shown, btw.)

And before you ask, Ted and I have been addressing the vexing issue of the drainage ...
