Chickpea has turned 19. She’s deaf, has fits and I have to give her a bath every couple of weeks because she doesn’t really wash herself anymore. She waits for me in my studio and sleeps on my lap all day. I love her.

Sarah Kendzior's excellent book, Hiding In Plain Sight, lays bare Trump's corruption and risk to national security. Recommended.
My interview on
#AMJoy
: "Trump is grooming Jared and Ivanka for a dynastic kleptocracy. This is what you see in autocracies and in mafia states. It's a way to keep corruption going and keep that money flowing. This is a massive national security risk."

1992 - I’m listening to Pavement, King Tubby, Tim Buckley, The Flaming Lips and The Beach Boys on the first floor of a house on Dartmouth Park Rd, not far from Kentish Town, with two rooms and a shared toilet/shower on the landing.

I started buying records from Probe in the mid 80s in my school uniform. In 1988, I handed our first demo to Geoff which he listened to in the cupboard behind the counter while I waited. “I like the noise but the singing is too nice”. RIP ❤️

Steve Strange was never my agent but he was my friend. He came looking for me when I was lost and I will always be grateful. We had some wild times together, he was funny, quite mad and always a joy to be around. I was looking forward to seeing him again later this year. R.I.P.

Barney And Me - called it Barney and me because the intro was ripped off Electronic. I think I started this on Belvidere Field in Wallasey while I was out walking one frosty morning near my parents house. Cellos and flutes. Old man song, I was 24.

1. Good morning. Three hundred years ago I wrote songs and music for a tv film set in 1990 called Snodgrass, scripted by David Quantick. Based on an Ian R McLeod short story about John Lennon if he'd left the Beatles in 1962.

The last time I saw this guitar was 2009 (had it since '97). I thought it had gone forever but it was at Music Box the whole time. Guitar Dan has fixed whatever needed fixing and it now sounds like a harpsichord ❤️🙌👊

My first flat was on the ground floor of 58 Huskisson Street in Liverpool. A long road, watched over by tall Georgian houses. I had a very large (and cold) room with a kitchenette and a double bed. Beryl Williams was my landlady and she was lovely, always up for a chat. RIP ❤️
