Down in the dumps?

#1

Post by spread-tee »

Sometimes with all the bad ass stuff going on it drags me down, so I play this,



quite loud, and I feel better, lucky for me our neighbours are Dead-Heads too :D

I remember seeing them in 1970 something, I loved them then and still do.

What's your musical tonic??

I also have seen this video from a few months ago, a decent alternative version.

Guess it goes without saying you all know its the solstice today ......... on the old forum was a host of how little pv have i generated today threads >>.........
As someone who suffers from SAD , today means a lot to me ......... have celebrated the shortest day , the first day of winter.........
I maybe a little pagan in secret (country person) so today took a trip to the Rollright stones nr Chipping Norton ...... was lovely - very busy with people just having a walk or in deeper ceremonies in the stone circle........
A special day ..... everyone polite , no litter .....
Had a sit and contemplation ..........home now , candle lit , glass of home brew..... cheers all........
