Oh dear, after a spot of Mother Theresa, the week only got worse. I’ve given up on karma, perhaps wax effigies and pins are the order of the day? This time it’s a matching set and not a mixed pair. Nothing for a pair in this game …
This week saw the mackerel daughter reach double figures. In her loveliness, she is the perfect antidote to the blacker side of human nature: bonny, smart, kind and rather good at football. Her fledgling music tastes were of initial cause for concern here at Mackerel Towers, but happily we have managed to break her, or should I say at least widen her repertoire. This was the song that clinched it – Sons & Daughters where have you gone? – and when I cast a fishy eye over the lyrics, they were perfect. Don’t you just love it when that happens?

Gilt Complex by Sons & Daughters. Check out their back catalogue – there’s some great stuff in it. And listen up for the latest Timberland tv ad too; hope it earns them a few bob.
