Blogger's Note: Written in haste, so there will be spelling mistakes and slapdash grammar.

Look at the date this blog was written. A backlog, people. No specially selected book, as a backdrop with the piss-poor excuses for why I haven't read it. Just a the facts, mam. I have a lot of these to steam through. Maybe I'll provide the colour commentary once they are all on the blog.

. . .  And you just know that I will have mislaid at least one sheet.

But I will use the this rush through as a cheap excuse to post music videos from YouTube. Why not? I need a soundtrack whilst I do this. Next up is the 'Love Grenade' by The Cavedogs. Why this one? It may have been the first song I ever downloaded from the internet, or at least the second. It's between this and the song I will post for Round 15. I don't know a lot about this band, other than they are Canadian and that I first heard this song on Mark Radcliffe's old Radio 1 evening show. I'd loved to pretend I was a child of Peel when it comes to music, but I probably discovered more new music via Mark Radcliffe on Radio 1. It's the truth.

This song still holds up, btw. Fight me if you disagree:
