Halfway Home

I've sort of run out of things to blog about. In fact, I'm having one of those periodic losses of mojo that have befallen me a lot in the last few years. What's the point?

Time, then, to fall back on the good ol' YouTube Watch Later list, to see what I might have left there for just such an occasion.

Not much, as it turns out. Seems I have been to the well a few times too many. I mean, I'm loathe to say I'm scraping the barrel, because this is better than that, but it's a handy metaphor for what is probably the last time, for now at least, that I can fall back on the Watch Later list. Henceforth, the cupboard is bare. We're going out with a good'un though, for this is Halfway Home by TV On The Radio, from 2008. It strikes me that this is what Peter Gabriel would sound like in some parallel universe where he was born in 1975 and went to school in Brooklyn instead of Charterhouse.

  1. Push through the blogging block. You will come out the other side.

    1. Cheers, Rol. Until then, expect more alcohol-free beer reviews. Exciting times, eh?

  2. Yes, as Rol says. And, if it helps at all, please always feel free to tell us about what book you're reading, the street art you've seen, that weird conversation you had at the coffee machine, your favourite vegetable (and why), etc. etc.!

    1. Or the book of vegetable related street art that someone told you about at the coffee machine

    2. All topics I've blogged about before, of course (except the veg). Although the combo of all those in one post would be quite something.

    3. I like Ernie's idea very much. Also, the merits of blogging about vegetables are underrated.

    4. Why, for example, did the runner beans my parents used to grow in their back garden taste better than any other beans I've ever had, anywhere else?
