I am rubbish, aren't I? No, seriously, I am. There's me saying I must complete this blog more often and what do I do? Nothing. Nowt. Sweet FA. Three months pass without a single thing. How rubbish am I? Apologies, gentle reader, you deserve better!

So, what have I been up to? Well, just got back from two weeks in New York (which was great!). Went to jazz clubs, two Broadway shows, a Yankees game, MOMA, the Guggenheim, and all the usual tourist malarkey. Fun, fun, fun. There was myself, YD, OD, OD's chum, and my latest squeeze, St Jane of the Lower Slopes. Other than that, work continues on the HOM album (nine tracks nearly complete), life is as boring as ever at the IB, OD and dog are still living with me (three months now), and I'm just getting even fatter. Can you believe it? (well... yes, actually you probably can). More soon, dear friend - honest!
