Great Quote

On holiday in Cornwall recently  I found a great quote outside a a craft shop in the Cornish village of Cadgwith -  "Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain"

I´m born again


This is a cover version of the classic Boney M. track I'm Born Again. I think it is one of the best cover versions I have heard of this song.

Jungle Boogie by The Muppets





Great video of the Electric Mayhem performing the track Jungle Boogie. Interesting to see Sam The Eagle in a different light - I would not have expected him to Jungle Boogie, or dress up while doing it! Hopefully the Muppets make more videos like this with the Electric Mayhem!

Friday Evening Walk

Completed a 2.73km walk tonight in 29 minutes and 51 seconds! I tracked the walk with MyGeonuate, so Click Here  to see where I walked, and the statistics for the walk etc. I walked at a pace of 5.49 km/h which is 0.5 km/h less than I would like, but still good. Hopefully one day I can attain a target of 6 km/h

Boney M. - Rasputin



This is a great video of Boney M. performing Rasputin, which in my opinion is Boney M.'s best song, on TV in Chile 1979. Rasputin happens to be my all time favourite song by any artist, and one that I often listen to when I'm not feeling myself, as for reasons I don't quite understand, it cheers me up. The version of Rasputin used in this video clip, is the version from their 1978 LP Nightlight To Venus, and it is one of the better versions - the shorter versions such as the one on the Boney M. Gold CD from 1992 or The Magic Of Boney M from 1980 don't do the song justice.

Change The Tune - Green Party 2015 Election Broadcast


In every election I have been able to vote in I've voted for the Liberal Democrats. Not any more, on May 7th I'm voting for the Green Party. From what I have seen of their polices they make more sense to me than those of the other main parties.
