Siouxsie And The Banshees - The Staircase (Mystery) (Official Music Video) 1979
I am not the world's biggest Banshees fan but I like the early stuff and this is I think my favourite 45. Love that riff. Saw them twice about then. Wiki
Here to watch.
Radstock on Ebay
Radstock is very popular among railway enthusiasts. I know this as I run a group Old Radstock and a lot of the people who join are usually railway buffs. You can buy model trucks with Somerset collieries Radstock on the panels. Pictures like this one are popular subjects for prints. This one is 1960. My Grandfather was an engine driver there but I expect I have already mentioned that.

Shepton Mallet A Visible History
I can't resist books on local history in the Charity shops. I got this one today. Shepton Mallet is a bus ride away. Monmouth's army went there twice. Nothing about the Rebellion in this tome. Buy it here
Spectrum Angels
Jet fighters from Captain Scarlet & the Mysterons (1967). Probably my first crush.

| Had this kit which my Dad made. Those days he made them and I watched. I think he liked doing it. Used to be exciting waking up to find he had done a lot of work on it. |

American Hot Wax [1978 Full Movie--best available version]
I saw this at the cinema. It has people like Chuck and Jerry Lee playing themselves. Includes Screamin' Jay.
Here
American Hot Wax is a 1978 biographical film directed by Floyd Mutrux with a screenplay by John Kaye from a story by John Kaye and Art Linson. The film tells the story of pioneering disc jockey Alan Freed, who in the 1950s helped introduce and popularize rock and roll, and is often credited with coining the term "rock 'n' roll". The film starred Tim McIntire, Fran Drescher, Jay Leno, Laraine Newman, Jeff Altman, and Moosie Drier. It also featured musical performances by Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, Frankie Ford, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, and Brooklyn Dreams as "Professor La Plano and The Planotones". The film was not a box-office success.
T. Rex Mambo Sun 1971
Electric Warrior Susan got me into T. Rex. I didn't like them at the time. I saw the Bolan Movie at the cinema in a double bill of something good and I found it dull.
Bridgwater Carnival Livestream
Our whole family usually log onto this. My son and his wife live in Liverpool but enjoy it.
Here on Saturday night. Should be fun. Bridgwater is epic and if you hang on for the squibbing that's fun too.
