A friend of mine just invited me to come over to to a dinner where we all will present our favorite top 5 metal albums of all time. Great, it’ll be easy…. or?
First thought was to have the first 5 Black Sabbath albums. Hmm, I also need to add the three first Rainbow albums and Slayer‘s Seasons in the abyss. AC/DC, Led Zeppelin …. can I add Jimi Hendrix? Motörhead, Judas Priest…. Saxon, Maiden, Thin Lizzy, Kiss, ….
Great, but it’s not going to be easy 😉
Just finished reading Bulgakov‘s The Master and Margarita and at the same time finished reading some plays by Harold Pinter.
Excellent reading!!
… just started reading Dario Fo plays.
I lover summer 🙂
Wow, finally my childhood heroes are re released.
The days of reading my Asterix, Lucky Luke and Gaston re released magzines (with nice comments and extra material) over and over again and dreaming about Spirou mags are over.
Given the quality of the extra material in the Lucky Luke and Asterix mags I can’t wait to get hold of them Spirou mags. Will rush to Seriehörnan and buy the first one this monday.
who could possibly ask for more?
Today is (hopefully) my last day of work before summer vacation. In Gothenburg (Sweden) right now we have about 25 degress celsius, no clouds and almost no wind. In short, perfect… a little cold perhaps. Took a picture at our summer house looking at the sea two days ago:
sad thing is that the forecasts say that starting by tomorrow we’ll have bad weather. Anyhow, vacation is vacation…. and I need one.
…. and yes, I have a bunch of books and manuals with me along with the laptop.
