Death of a snowman

Alas, the London snow started disappearing almost straight away, and we only really had half-a-day of fun with it. And I didn’t really have any fun with it because there was nobody I knew I could throw snowballs at, or make a snowman with.

One of my friends suggested that I didn’t get round to building a snowman since I didn’t have anyone to build it with, or to take photos or to blog about it, and therefore “If I didn’t blog about building a snowman, would I have really built it?”. Which set me wondering as to whether I just live for blogging/photo-taking/social media purposes.

Then my blogmate Geoff decided to post a blog about the numberplates on his car, and how he changed them. And he took photos of the process. And he filmed it as well, and it became a multimedia extravaganza entry in his blog…

The new Pet Shop Boys single. It’s fab. For the following reasons:

- It’s going to be fab at concerts, hearing fans scream back the various call-and-beck lines
- Lyrically, it’s an age-old theme but with the typical Pet Shop Boys twist
- It’s catchy as hell. Did I mention that?
- Love Etc. - I mean, could there be a more Pet Shop Boys title?
