I talk about it, talk about it, talk about it, talk about movin...

After a simply faboo prolonged Easter break - the annual pilgrimage to Essex for plant-shopping, and the rest of the week spent almost entirely in the garden - it's the last weekend before I return to work [albeit briefly, as we're off to Spain again a week tomorrow!], and it's time for a party!

[Indeed, there is plenty to celebrate, as tonight Madam Arcati and I are off to the London Palladium (again - we're becoming regulars) for a gala evening - BBC Radio 2 Celebrates Elaine Paige, marking her 60 year career in showbusiness - and tomorrow John-John, Hils, History Boy and I are going to the Tutankhamun Immersive Experience.]

So without further ado, how about something funky from the summer of 1980 - (gulp!) 45 years ago - to ease our way..? Thank Disco It's Friday!

Have a great weekend, dear reader!

Do the Mash

At the end of what has felt like one of the longest weeks of my life, returning to work, in the dark, after two weeks with my legs up (not as much fun as it sounds), I am in desperate need of some party music to lighten my mood and encourage me into my leopardskin roller-disco boots...

To that end I have discovered a most magnificent disco mash-up by an evident genius of that genre by the name of Robin Skouteris.

It features Miss Ross, Dan Hartman (who would have been 62 tomorrow), Donna Summer, Lipps Inc and many more - Thank Disco It's Friday!

Hope your weekend's a great one!!

I talk about it, talk about it, talk about it, talk about movin!...

Can it really be 30 years since this funky little number was all over the charts? Heavens, time flies, etc., etc.
