Sleaford Mods are an English post-punk music duo, formed in 2007 in Nottingham. The band features vocalist Jason Williamson and, since 2012, musician Andrew Fearn. They are known for their abrasive, minimalist musical style and embittered explorations of austerity-era Britain, culture, and working class life, delivered in Williamson's East Midlands accent.

His people must have let the domain name expire as it's now a spam blog called David Cameron Journalism.
David Cameron improving your life, one shitty link farm at a time.
You like shredding? Alvin Lee was the OG shredder.
In this week's episode of 'Allo 'Allo!, Thib explains all about bridges.
From the BBC's Later... with Jools Holland.
Another hugely underrated band from the 70s. Great songwriters, talented musicians, a very satirical edge and a stage show like nothing else.
Possibly the most underrated UK punk band.
In the basement today we have quite a rare machine (for North America:) The BBC Master 128. It's an evolution of the original Acorn BBC Micro from 1981. My first task is to service the PSU and convert it to 120v, then see if this machine is working.

Russian moon landings, week long traffic jams, a workforce replaced by automation and above all, too much leisure time!
These are just some of the bold predictions made in Don Haworth's 1963 BBC 'mockumentary' Time on Our Hands - a remarkable film which projects the viewer a quarter of a century into the future.
My granddaughter recently started guitar lessons so I bought her tickets for The Warning's recent gig at the O2 Academy in London. It was her first ever concert experience. Hopefully they'll be an inspiration for her.
Proper vid here for those who like pictures of people :)
I've just watched Yusuf/Cat Stevens at Glastonbury and impressed by how many people of all ages know the lyrics to songs he wrote half a century ago. Example: when he started singing Father and Son the crowd had joined in before he'd reached the end of the first word.
And the sight of tens of thousands of mostly white, middle-class fans joining in with a 74 year old Muslim grandad wasn't something I'd ever expected to see.
Dolly Parton, Britney Spears and Taylor Swift tribute acts were among protesters outside Meta's London HQ after having Facebook and Instagram profiles deleted because of rules banning people from impersonating others.

Obvs not the correct sub for this but can't find anywhere more suitable.
