Happy that England won the Ashes. Shame it came down to bad light again in the end, though. Interesting piece by Mike Selvey on Saturday, about Spofforth the Demon and the campaigning purpose of that famous "the ashes will be taken to Australia" mock-obituary

Kate Bush has always been an interesting performer. I have three of her CDs/cassettes. I wasn't aware she was still performing. Thanks for the news.

She stopped recording for several years largely due to having a baby and deciding to concentrate on her family for a while.
She hasn't toured since the early eighties, and almost never performs live at all now - she turned down a lifetime achievement award at the Brits because she'd have been expected to sing at the ceremony. Shame :-(
I used to be a huge fan - had her posters over all my walls at college.

I had a lovely time, too, and am very fond of Settlers, so gaining new converts is always a boon.

We're publishing a new book on Kate Bush next month...
