    Morning troops

    It's called a power nap isn't it when you have a kip in the afternoon ? Ive just dropped off for an hour because I was knackered after working. I'm no good in this heat !

    I've seen a woman walk by in Bell Green wearing a coat, and a bloke with a woolly hat on. WTF !

    Morning troops

    I've knocked off and come back home. Felt a bit fatigued and tired. Sod it though not worth making yourself ill over a few quid. People think window cleaning in hot weather is a perfect job, I can assure you it's not. Give me a cold day anytime, soon warm up !

    Morning troops

    Off thread a bit. Not complaining about the weather, but its a bastard to work in. An elderly customer saw I was hot cleaning her windows earlier so fetched me a " cool drink " and gave me a mug of hot tea. I'm telling you hot tea does not cool you down. To keep her happy I drank it, made me go...

    That's the down side to the Rockblock as you pick 20 tracks, they choose from your list about 10 or 11 so as to fit them in the hour. But they annoyingly break it up with adverts just as its in full flow ! But other than that it's entertaining dont you think ? Here's some tracks I've picked for...

    I like to have a thread to my 20 tracks. I've used the thread of bands I've never seen, favourite tracks from American acts, female artists, colours, and animals. Great fun compiling them !

    I've had about 7 Rockblocks featured on there in about 2 years. I enjoy doing them and they seem to like my choices. They say they will contact you but never do, so you just tune in every night and 1pm on Saturdays. I've had people say they want to do a Rockblock but never do for some reason...

    My mate went with his missus. He's a massive Manic Street Preachers fan who headlined. He said the Specials went down well, and in the crowd was a Sky Blues flag /banner flying !

    I've just done a new Rockblock for Planet Rock. The theme I used was my favourite cover versions, this is on my list. Have you heard Sounds Of Silence by Disturbed ? Awesome. 20 tracks ain't easy, but managed it in the end. Had a great time researching and listening to tracks !

    I never thought I'd hear Johnny Cash on Planet Rock. But several times they've played his version of Nine Inch Nails track Hurt. It is brilliant though, and the video him and his wife did to accompany the song is great too.

    My mate at Cally back in the sixties was called Loz Netto, and he was in Sniff and the Tears. He was a good musician at school and has gone on to become a top session man. Good memories.

    Been listening to Saxon a lot recently. If you like rock music, they tick all the boxes. Dallas 1p.m is Saxon at their best !

    City Centre Stabbing

    My Polish neighbours packed up and left their flat yesterday. Smashing couple lived peacefully got on great with them. I asked them why are you going ? They replied they didn't like the anti social stuff here in Bell Green etc. They must be desperate as our block of flats is down to be...

    Lee Pomeroy murder

    I think it was because he followed him from carriage to carriage, and not leaving it at the start. Obviously he never deserved what happened and the attacker got what he deserved. Death wish maybe is a bit strong, but sometimes you just have to walk away and he had his son with him too.

    The World Is Drugged Up ?

    Here in Bell Green we have many Eastern Europeans. A group of them gather every day/ night drinking cans outside the newsagents/ off licence, which is open to 11 pm 7 days a week. They seem merry enough, and dont really bother you too much. But a few months ago it kicked off between a dozen of...
