Went out delivering campaign newspapers in Headingley today. Really good exercise – must have burned off a good thousand calories. I did end up with newsprint all over my fingers though.
The Leeds ward boundaries are changing this year so the entire Council is up for election. The LibDems have all three seats in Headingley, and our hard-working councillors deserve to get re-elected this year. With the Labour Council currently only a few seats from No Overall Control, all-up elections and the postal vote pilot, it’s anyone’s guess what the political landscape of Leeds will be on June 11th.
I’m just listening to Xfm and am most impressed that they are playing a band as old and as good as ELO. Which reminds me that between the bands at the Franz Ferdinand gig they played ELO, which only served to show up the support acts.
I’m also reminded, having seen The Fiery Furnaces’ album in HMV today, that the only memorable bit of their performance was the repeated line “Tropical…icy-icy” from their song Tropical Iceland. Oh, and the standout (possibly for the wrong reasons) lyric “The rain in Spain falls mainly on me.” Don’t take that as a recommendation though.
Near a TV in the mornings? Able to pick up Five (the channel formerly known as Channel 5)? Then I recommend Brainteaser on Tuesday 4th May, 11am.
