This blog is dead

At least according to blogger. I guess they have a point I have done fuck all with this in a while. I have however moved and house recently so theres a little excuse. Im thinkinb of taking things in a slightly different direction and focusing more on photography and documentation around Birmingham, so keep your eyes peeled for a "re-activation post" coming soon.

Museum Collections Centre

The Mrs and I went round to the Museums Collection Centre (Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery) today, as they had one of their seldom open days. This is where the BMAG stores parts of their collection that arent currently on display, and believe you me there is shitloads of random stuff there. Mostly engines and machinery from long-gone factories, but also swathes of taxidermy, ceramics, models and artifacts of everyday life. As a "bikie", I found the old Brummie bicycles of particular interest, have a gander at what we found.






Early front-geared bike.






Italian moped.



Sweet sidecar!











Any ideas what this is? Single-speed tricycle?

Go! pt 3

Sort of a semi-discography here, released on epistrophy recs in 1995 from what I can gather. This record contains the first four 7's, and some demo and comp trax. As with the other records grab this one, if only for the lyrics. Should be easy enough to find in the bigger distros.
