I seem to have spent a lot of time today on DIY tasks that I'd been putting off for ages, and which took far more time and effort than they should have.

Lyrics: The last one was Bob & Earl's classic Harlem Shuffle from 1969, spotted by resident Northern Soul fan ladybracknell. Something recent this time:

I hope when your in bed with her, you think of me
I would never wish bad things, but I don't wish you well
Could you tell, by the flames that burned your words

I never read your letter
'Cos I knew what you'd say
Give me that Sunday school answer
Try and make it all OK (2000s)
