    Fuck. Completely forgot the ADHD meds review appointment yesterday. Which probably says a lot about how well the meds are working, doesn’t it?

    I fucking hated this in 1976. These days, I’m still not fond, but bloody hell, Demis had an amazing voice. #totp

    Just realised, this is the classic cliched Acid House drum pattern, just played on a real kit and without the 303 going bonkers. #totp

    Flick Colby choreography twice in one night, #totp? What did we do to deserve this?

    Say what you like about the music of seventies #totp episodes, they certainly seemed to have the most fun with more or less off the wall video effects.

    Nanas on video. Almost as good as the ‘Nanas in the studio. Was this video conceived, choreographed and directed by Flick Colby? #totp

    Vince has integrity look! He’s made sure that DX7 is at least plugged in. Just don’t mention the lack of audio cables. #totp

    “Look at my hopes, look at my dreams, the currency we’ve spent I love you, you pay my rent.” Jesus, he must’ve gone to be happy after writing that. #totp
