A bit of shameless advertising.  This just released on the 62nd Gramophone Company label - a double CD set homage to the 1980's original version by Morgan Fisher.  Hazel has a track on CD 2 followed by Toyah, Tom Robinson, Billy Bragg, Ukulele Orchestra of GB, etc etc.  My collages are scattered throughout the box and 68 page booklet enclosed.  Strictly limited to 1000 copies apparently. …

New 'zine hot of the press.  10 copies. Very limited ed.  Please dont ask for one as they have all gone and I won't be printing any more.…

Quite a thing this sneaky bug that hides inside people who show no symptoms.  Easing of lockdowqn here in the UK but not so sure this is a good idea with medical experts predicting another spike in the Winter.  Still over a 100 people dying every day although the numbers are becoming less every day.  I am still not going into shops. The only place I go into is the pharmacy for my medication - once a month.  They have a one in one out policy which suits me. Usually when I go I'm the only one…
