Conifers in Coventry

We were suprised, saddened and shocked to hear of the passing of Terry Hall earlier this week. We really don’t know what to say about it as like lots of people, himself alongside The Specials were a part of our musical lives.

Rather than getting all maudlin about it, let’s raise a smile at something daft we found in a Mojo interview with him from a while back:

“I get obsessed with stuff. In the late ’90s I was trying to perfect conifer height, I remember that. I planted about 30 conifers, and I wanted them to all grow at the same level. You buy them, and they’re all 18 inches, and you plant them all at the same depth, feed and water them all the same, and some died and some went brown. Why? It really did my head in…”

Life and Gardening, two things that can do your head in. RIP Terry Hall.

Banish stress with this and some left over pork pie

Big shout to our good friend Shane Quentin AKA Head Gardener of The Garden of Earthly Delights radio show. He’s compiled a couple of hours “of mostly new, laid back and very chilled out grooves to help you through to 2023.” This is excellent mix and should be banged out on the stereo pronto. Cheers Shane!
