A raincoat and a rose
I’ve been a bit snowed under the last couple of days, with a big project at work, Morley Community Radio broadcasting this weekend and a big family wedding up in Cleveland today. I have a handful of half written blog posts in my head but they are struggling to get out.
Instead, this song popped into my head today whilst on the road. It is from Chris Rea’s cracking 1979 Deltics album which has happy memories for me as he played support for Lindisfarne that year (or more likely the year before, Christmas 1978).
Chris Rea is from the well known (to Geordies) Rea’s Cafe family and during his set on the last night, Lindisfarne borrowed the City Hall ice cream trays with “Santini’s” on the front and came on stage dressed in Usherette outfits.
This is a song about looking for love and what better topic for the day I get a new Brother in law.

You certainly have lots of interests to keep you occupied in you spare time. A new BIL? Well he’s no longer looking for love I hope.

That man had an amazing voice. I liked Espresso logic.

Aargh, I can’t remember it! I’ll have to dust down the vinyl or look on YouTube.

I hope that you will be taking your pathologhically lying side kick with you.
