Beautiful morning – after the storms that have been blowing through for the past few days this is a bit of light relief.  Still working on the Petrology gig – very interesting – you can’t beat a bit granite extrusion in your pot!

Last night I just caught the end of a programme about the music of Abba and I must admit I just didn’t recognise the music they were talking about.  Now I’m an unreconstructed Abba fan – always have – even when it was deeply unpopular to be so.  Anyway, the bit of the programme I saw last night was waxing lyrical about The Visitor and how it was so dark and brooding.  Well I didn’t pick up on any of this – I just liked the tune.  I suspect there is some rewriting of history going on here or perhaps I wasn’t listening hard enough.  Who knows and quite frankly who cares – I just like the music for itself not for any other deconstructed reason.

I cannot move, I’m standing
Numb and frozen

As they might say
