Ooh, what a not-shocker

McCartney And Mills To Split

I exhibit my lack of surprise, but will say this:

FINALLY the media stopped pandering to Ms Mills' affectation of 'Lady Heather Mills-McCartney' which is a title she was never entitled to (Lady McCartney, but not Lady Heather Mills-McCartney. It's not her title. Or something equally ridiculous.)

I will also say this: the following days/weeks/months and divorce proceedings (because let's face it, who believes this is temporary?) will tell us everything we need to know about the grinning thumbs up bloke and the fame-hungry bint. There's more money at stake than you can shake a drumstick at, and all to play for.

May the best Beatle win.

News O' The World

My fingers are killing me. Seriously, playing mandolin as I have been trying to do for the past few days is way harder on the fingertips than guitar strings and I feel almost like chopping my hand off.

It sounds fucking awful when I play, too... but if I don't do that, I'll never get any better. I just hope that the pain goes away enough to continue some more tomorrow... I've had this idea of getting Londonderry Air down properly so I can go play it for my gran. I'd have to wait for the weather to improve, but I think it would be a nice idea.

What else? I watched The Producers movie-of-the-musical-of-the-movie-about-a-musical which was passable. I haven't seen all of the old one, so it's not like I had that weight on my expectations. Nice to see John Barrowman as an Aryan Nazi... although even now after De-Lovely and Doctor Who and everything else, my first instinct when I see him is: Live and Kicking!

I'm now in the process of trying to watch that one called Brokeback Mountain, which I also rented today. I hear it was quite successful. I don't know if I'll like it, not cos of Teh Gay but cos I have no concentration at the moment, and I'll probably turn off at the first tracking shot of mountains. Ah well, let's see what happens...
