8 years....

left our house in Greenwich today almost 8 years to the day that we moved in, it's going to be rented for at least a year while we decide if we want to stay in Canada - despite the momentous life changing experiences we've had in the place, it was with a strangely detatched feeling that i closed the front door & drove off, moving around a lot as a kid I've never been that sentimental about homes.......what is for sure is we're definitely gonna need an additional 757 following us out to Calgary on Thursday, just to take the luggage we seem to be taking

i have to say thanks to The Hawley's Pete & D-Day & also Angus at this juncture for superb Compilation CDs they put together & gave to me as leaving presents - i enjoy making & giving these kind of things, some inspired tracks on both which will be turning up on my tune's of the day in the very near future

i have actually been listening a lot recently to mp3s & torrents, linked through largehearted boy
he's even got the good taste to nominate The Clientele's 'Strange Geometry' as one of his current favourite albums - a great London-centric album, reminds me a lot of old Heavnly band East Village

so a few days in Sussex before Thursday's flight - tomorrow I'm going to Brighton to say goodbye to brothers & sisters, i better make the most of being near the sea as Calgary is well inland - i've always been used to being near the sea, even in Greenwich it's only a short drive to Whitstable, Seasalter & the wonderful Sportsman pub

today's tune - Aint Got No Home - Clarence 'Frogman' Henry
