24th July, 2009 - My Old Boy's Farcical iPod

I have been trying to phone my old man more regularly following his op. As I have mentioned recently in this blog, we do not ever talk about our feelings and emotions, but instead talk about work, music and technology.


At the moment we are talking extensively about i-Tunes. My Old Man has bought an i-Pod and is now busily downloading his entire CD collection. Unfortunately this means that he has been listening to some of his more dubious CDs and is threatening to download some copies for me. I live in perpetual fear of my dad’s pirated CD’s largely because he later asks mme what I think of them. In turn this means that I at least need to cast a cursory ear over Parky Picks Some Middle of the Road Pish to Send You Quietly Mad and Ivan Ribroff Sings Porgy and Bess in a Curious Russian Accent.

I am glad I currently have a cold and am unable to visit.
