YAY!!! The Sun Arrived

 After the weather we’ve been having recently, today was literally a breath of fresh air.

The sun shone all day – NO RAIN!!!
The temperature soared to around 24C and it felt good.
They forecast that it should hold for a few days.
 
OK, OK…..so we’ll be moaning in a couple of days that it’s too hot….but we’re Brits, that’s what we do.
 
For now, just enjoy the weather with me and have a listen to this sunny day song:

SWEETie Time

I read a report today that the Glam-Rock band SWEET were to go on tour again in 2008!!!
 
The report goes on….”Popular rock band SWEET, led by bassist/vocalist Steve Priest, will begin their Are You Ready Steve? 2008 tour – their first in many years, it was announced today.
The original Sweet was formed by Priest along with vocalist Brian Connolly, drummer Mick Tucker and guitarist Frank Torpey (later replaced by Andy Scott) in the UK and rose to fame with such hits as ‘Ballroom Blitz’, ‘Fox on the Run’, ‘Love is Like Oxygen’, ‘Little Willy’, ‘Hellraiser’, ‘Teenage Rampage’, ‘Blockbuster’, ‘Action’ and many others.
The 2008 Sweet tour will be a tribute to Connolly and Tucker whose tragic deaths were terribly pre-mature. “

Takes me back to my younger days…Sweet, Marc Bolan & T-Rex, Mud, Slade, Bowie, Mott The Hoople….
