It's high time, just one crack at life



Daaahlings! It's the end of another week, and of the slough of despond that inevitably follows the peaks of adrenaline of last weekend's Gay Pride day. Time to party!

To start, I'm off to see the Bette Bourne biographical film It Goes With The Shoes at the V&A tonight.

Best of all - summer appears to be here at last (with temperatures this weekend predicted to hit 27C/81F)!

With such dazzling sunshine to look forward to, our thoughts inevitably travel back to that legendary long, hot summer of 1976. And in this week 37 years ago, as Britons watched in awe as the pavements melted and the reservoirs dried up, Miss Candi Staton made her triumphal debut in the charts.

Let us don our most outlandish feather necklaces and sing along with the anthem for the old and the bitter - Young Hearts Run Free...Thank Disco It's Friday!

  1. It's dark! It's raining! It's cold!

    Worst summer ever!

    But: it's weekend. I just hope the next one will feel more like July and less like February. Enjoy the sunshine :)
