Bimlets! How I’ve missed you.

I’ve been beating off the remains of an unyielding cold with an echinacea/eucalyptus-covered broom. First gig with the Shiny New Bim line-up tomorrow night and I will not be made croaky by some lame germs*. In your face, germs.

Some things have stood in the background and gone “yeah, take that” at the germs while I’ve been beating them with said broom. They may not have been contributing to the germ-beating directly, but MAN have they helped along the way.

They are:

1. Watching people fight on Trisha Goddard. Why? Nobody knows, but Trisha and her angry minions have the keys to relieve people of their snot.

2. The new Massive Attack album, Heligoland, naughtily streamed on YouTube but stimulating, beautiful little films are also available in exchange for a tweet at the (inventively named) Tweatre. It’s quite divine, and the sound is mostly depthy, spacious and stirring – just as you’d desire. Yummy.

3. Watching a full-on, balls to the wall, flat-peaked-cap rude boy help to walk an old lady across the road. It really happens. Amazing.

If you’re coming to the gig tomorrow, come and say hello : ) xxx

*Dear Germs, please hold off making me croaky for a few days. Many thanks, Rebs. x
