This is Bush!

Everyone has things that remind them of their early childhood and this is one of mine, Bush. More specifically The Science Of Things album and even more specifically the song warm Machine. Whenever I listen to it, it reminds me of sunny days spend indoors with my dad whilst I played games and he fixed computers (He used to work as a BCM Team mamager at Deutch Bank). The song also reminds me of Barbeques, circuit boards, my old dog Calypso and my old back garden :). . . . . . . . Happy Days.

This is the Album cover:

These are the lyrics:

I memorise the basics

Making strange faces

Tread slowly for i know
There's a thousand miles to go
Without blinking
Gravitate spacewards find a home for the head from my basement
No darkness ever left
This is the night this is the sound here comes the warm machine
Such a warm machine
Feeling warm
Some days are playful
Making play faces
But we will not let it through
The darkness and the sense
Of being born to lose
This is the night this is the sound here comes the warm machine
Such a war machine
This is the life
This is the ground
Here comes the warm machine
Such a war machine
If we never know we can only feel
I'll take the help i'll take a slice
Warm alright now cos i feel alright
I memorise the basics
This is the night this is the sound here comes the warm machine
Such a warm machine
Such a war machine
Such a war machine



Im not actually obsessed with Bush even though it does seem it with all the pics and links and crap, but I just felt like sharing a memory.  They are a really good band and The Science Of Things is a awesome album, you should give it a listen.

For some reason I have a thing for hot air balloons. I think they are both beautiful and fasinating. Whenever I see one im captivated and will watch it for hours. In my opinion they are one of the most amazing inventions of mankind.





Did you know they are the oldest successful human-carrying flight technology? Nor did I. In the UK a person commanding a Hot Air Balloon must have a valid Private Pilot's License issued by the Civil Aviation Authority specifically for ballooning, I just think thats funny :)

For some reason ive never been compelled to take a ride in one. Im quite content to remain on the ground and to watch them in all their splendour and glory. Maybe one day I will explore the heavens in one, but for now, im happy to watch.

one. . .two. . .three. . .FOUR!!!

Four is the only number in English that has the same number of letters in its name as the number itself!
This pointless phenomena also applies to German, Dutch and Afrikaans where the number four is vier.

Someone out there makes their living counting the number of letters in numbers and seeing if its the same as the number itself. Makes for an interesting conversation i suppose, but what if he/she looses count? back to the job centre methinks!
