PlusPlus and I had a drunken chat about books on Friday and it got me thinking about how taste in these kind of things is pretty important...you judge people on it and even make friends because of it. I can't possibly put down all the music I like or reduce my favorite films and books down to a definitive list, but here is a starter of the recently listened to, read and watched and also some of my favourites thrown in randomly. Please add your own:
Films:
The Lives of Others; My Neighbour Torturo;
The Science of Sleep; Dead Man's Shoes;
Delicatessen; Withnail and I
Monty Python and The Holy Grail
Books:
Number 9 Dream; The Outsider;
Kitchen; Metamorphosis
Dance, Dance, Dance; East of Eden
New York Trilogy; The Contortionist's Handbook
Cat's Cradle
Music:
Arcade Fire; Organised Konfusion
The Beta Band; Autechre
Air; Nightmares on Wax
The Fireman (I recently discovered this is Paul McCartney!)
Diplo; Louis Armstrong
Queens of The Stone Age; Depeche Mode

Freedom of Speech eh?

Now that I have my own little section I have no idea what to write of course.

Let's start with the beauty of bank holiday weekends and their free days off work. Two whole days of guilt-free skiving in which you can officially do absolutely nothing. Why would you want to do nothing though when there are so many interesting things that are on offer?

The world is your lobster - so don't be shellfish and share your plans in this 'ere blog space. Perhaps between us we can come up with the bank holiday weekend to end all weekends?

Answers on a postcard please....
