swing low sweet cable car................

it seems that if I had made the choice to go a few km's further down the highway to Lake Louise yesterday instead of Sunshine, I could well have spent the afternoon standed in one of the cable cars - the whole system on the mountain ground to a halt & people were stranded for hours before being rescued in a where eagles dare stylee

i once got in a cable car at whistler and this girl managed to throw up seconds after the ride started, by the end of the 10 minute lift to the top we were literally fighting each other for the tiny window as the smell was devastating - easily one of the longest 10 minutes of my life

i'm going to Lake Louise on Saturday as it's local's free day - better pack an extra bag of Werthers

i'm loving a few new songs at the moment, but none more so than Velvet Cell by Gravenhurst now added to BCR Radio on your right - it reminds me of late 80's My Bloody Valentine - this is in the running for my end of year & not at all much anticipated - Yuletide Dozen (a pointless attempt to emulate John Peel's Festive Fifty with obviously no audience participation & 38 less tracks).

tune of the day Gravenhurst - Velvet Cell
