Aka Saturday 14th January and Sunday 15th January 2023
A low key weekend spent listening to the Elvis boxset, watching Season Three of ‘Elementary’ and chilling. The postie delivered ’Time Before Time’ #19:
…which was a fun read. Nadia is finally reunited with her mother and sister and we find out what is happening in the far, distant past. The story really delivers on showing the disconnect you can feel when you reunite and it doesn’t quite live up to your hopes and dreams.
One of the newspaper was leading on Noel Gallagher's divorce and a little bit shamefully my first thought was if this meant that an Oasis reunion was on the cards.

The little grey cells didn’t burn themselves out, they kept enough in reserve to chew through this grid (and it did have a few chewy clues). Although we did fail to get ‘hacienda’ from ‘landed estate in Spain and Latin America’, which we really should off (like anyone who had a passing interest in music and grew up in the ‘80s and ‘90s, Hacienda should have been a gimme!)…
