Area Man Apparently Thinks We Give A Fuck About Him Going For A Walk

Going to try to write or post or share or denigrate something every day, in the hope that every now and then something might be good. Might not all be new stuff. Definitely won't be all good stuff. But it's something.

Put an old playlist - the daytime from when I worked at The Ferret - on shuffle and this came on. It's extremely good.
