Up, up to the sky


Oh, those God-botherers..!

TFFT! It may only be a four-day week thanks to the Bank Holiday, but I feel like I have been through four rounds with Mike Tyson already. Just seven hours to go...

...and it's time to party!

Who better to raise our spirits and get our boogie on than the delightful Silver Convention?!

Try not to crick your neck emulating these dance moves, dear reader - and Thank Disco It's Friday!!

Have a great weekend, peeps!

That's right



Another weekend hoves into view, thank goodness - a chance to forget the tensions of work for a moment [I have to be interviewed for a position in the new departmental restructure next week, and I really don't want to think about that...].

What better way to let our hair down than to head back 38 years to this week in 1976, fling on an eminently practical white jumpsuit with marabou trim, and throw some (odd) shapes - in a set that looks like a pile of chitterlings?

...just like the eternally cheesy Silver Convention!


Thank Disco It's Friday!

Have a good one...

Let's Fly!



"All the ills of mankind, all the tragic misfortunes that fill the history books, all the political blunders, all the failures of the great leaders have arisen merely from a lack of skill at dancing." - Moliere

It's the last weekend before Xmas - and it's going to be a cold one. Let's cheer ourselves up with one of my favourites of the cheesy gold-jumpsuitted 1970s, the lovely Silver Convention - don't try this at home, folks...

Thank Disco It's Friday!

Get up and...

It's been an unsettling week - coming down to earth with a bang after the best Pride weekend for ages, planning to move house in a few weeks (because the landlady is selling up), and Madame Acarti getting another new job.

As we head towards what may well be another gorgeous sunny weekend (involving a high proportion of sorting things into boxes, probably), I think I should share a song that is guaranteed to lift the spirits. What better than the lovely Silver Convention? (Just check out the audience - they're hilarious!).

Thank Disco It's Friday!
