Current favourite album: Dub Side Of The Moon by the Easy Star All-Stars.
Taking Pink Floyd's slighty trippy 70s album and giving it a reggae spin, while some way short of genius, is certainly a marvellous way to de-stress.
I'm particularly impressed with the opening to 'Money', where the famous sound of coins being scooped out of a cash tray and a register rung is replaced by the sound of a lighter, the bubbles of a bong, an intake of breath and subsequent coughing.
Childish, but lets face it; thats what most of those students who got all intense about Pink Floyd were doing anyway.
Speaking of childish, I think I might be approaching maturity. I gave one of the team a crisp 5 pound note for the collection of lunch. He returned with a single shiny pound coin and a pile of lard.
I took the pound coin and gibbered: "Rich! Rich! I shall leave you all now and spend my new found wealth on fast cars, drugs and hookers!"
My colleague raised an eyebrow: "Where are you going to find a hooker for 1 pound?"
Now, ordinarily I would have quipped: "I hear your Mother'll go all the way for less..." but maturity intervened as I realised that this could be quite a rude thing to say. So I didn't.
Instead, I suggested his sister was a lady of negotiable affection. Better, yes?
