Last post

This blog actually started in 2007, was abandoned, then restarted properly in March 2008, almost exactly five years ago. In that time, it has attracted 1,102,561 page views. Yeah, I know.

It's not the best or coolest out there, but it has been consistent: I've tried to post something on most days. And this funny little page has become home: a bit shabby, with a few jobs I've been meaning to do for years but never got round to.

But now it's almost time to say goodbye.

And what better music to pack up my stuff to than the sound of a freshly-built Shovelhead, pipes barking against the dead quiet of freshly fallen snow: Terry Godschalk's VL/Shovel, beautifully (and bravely) photographed by Brad at ZON, and soon to be featured in the all-new GKM.

Final news tomorrow.

Warped '50s

Remember 'Lipstick on your Collar'?

For some reason it popped into my head over the weekend. Ewan McGregor's first role, top music (still have the soundtrack CD somewhere), Dennis Potter brilliance/weirdness.

Got to see if I can find it somewhere on DVD.

More from the Machine Shed

Mike's 45, built by Matt at Machine and shot by Roger at Pinball Images.

Nice, nice, nice. (Neat neat neat?)

Aussie ingenuity and class.

Coming very soon.
