You’ll know a few. The top half post 2000 the bottom 80’s and 90’s. They’re a different style in many ways to the Protest songs of the 60 particularly and 70’s.

No – old copper conking out I think. But really strange. Phone goes too and so internet goes. Got it fixed a month ago but obviously other probs and hard to pin down because when I eventually get through to them on my mobile (reception not good at home) the bloody thing decides to work.
