Blake’s 7: The Liberator Chronicles 1.2 Solitary

The second part of the first box set of Liberator Chronicles. This time a story all about Vila. Although it seemed to take a while to get going it wasn’t a bad story really, but it lacked pace and excitement. Perhaps partly because it was a largely narrated story.

So far the chronicles boxed set hasn’t lived up to my expectations. I’ve only one more CD to go!

Home (during WOMAD)

I bought this tent as my last 2 man pop up tent had really gone beyond what I could expect from it, so this 3 man replaced it, and I have to say that I’ve been really pleased with it. It has loads of space and was just great during WOMAD. It’s slightly more complex to put away than the other pop up tents I’ve had, but even so it only took a few minutes to get it packed away.

Laurie Anderson “Dirtday” at the RHF

My ticket for Laurie Anderson’s amazing show on Friday. It was everything that I’ve come to expect from a Laurie Anderson show. Amusing, emotional, political and personal, it was a great performance on every level. I’m so glad I went along.

I wish she’d release another album. I know it hasn’t been long since her last, but the material from her last few shows is so good I’d like to hear it again.

In any case, it was a superb show and I’m glad I made the effort to get along to it.

Blake’s 7: Season 1

I’ve just finished watching season 1 of Blake’s 7, and I’ve loved every minute of it. It’s been wonderful. I’m really looking forward to the next two seasons, which I’ll almost certainly watch soon enough. The more I watch Blake’s 7 the more I realise just how underrated it was.

So, on to season 2.
