    My dull day at work has been made slightly more bearable because...

    Neil Diamond has now been officially confirmed on the Glastonbury line up. Yay, so happy, can't wait. It's gonna be a scorcher this year too, I can feel it.

    I appreciate this is completely irrelevant but just thought I'd share.

    Yesterday, mine was lightened up by a man with a banana on his head.

    He was campagning for The Official Monster Raving Loony Partny!

    *still unsure who to vote for*

    "Love on the Rocks". First record I ever bought. I love Neil Diamond, but it's a bit embarassing to admit it. It's a bit like being a Barry Manilow fan.


    Just like to name and shame my sister as the no 1 fan of Barry Manilow

    Great song.
    I love the film "The Jazz Singer" (the Neil Diamond one) if only for the music.

    Saw him live: truly awesome. Fully of really nice touches: some cheesy Americanisms, but generally very good...

    Made me cry during 2 different songs.

    My daughter rang me at lunchtime, to say that her day had been brightened up by seeing Brendan Cole, standing in his boxers in Leicester Square. promoting the awareness of Mens health!

    Shame she didn't take any pics!

    Today was National Learning at work day. In our office they gave a couple of free Salsa lessons. It was very basic stuff but it got me away from my desk for an hour.

    The IT guys, who are really over-run with things to do at the moment, came and sorted out my computer for me today and were really helpful and nice about it all... it's amazing how someone being cheerful in the face of adversity can brighten your day .

    Well, not my dull day at work but that of the train driver this morning... who actually thought it worth pointing out to his passengers that the train was on time

    Neil Diamond album in my collection, listened to regualarly. Great cheesy romantic stuff, great for having a cry too when ya boyfriend dumps ya. (in my younger days of course)

    My day is more bearable because its Friday, ive got a great weekend planned and we have Monday off. On top of that, im off next Friday so only have a three days week next week.

    yaaaaaaay xx
