Robbie Williams let me down ...

... yep, there were a few songs of Robbie's that I actually quite like - mainly stuff post 2001, and pre-2005, and not on a whole album basis, but enough to just buy his most recent Rudebox album without checking on the samples first. What a waste of money - if anyone would like a very slightly used CD, please apply here. It is rubbish - Robbie the rapper, and he is not very good at it. The lyrics are self serving and maudlin, and I would guess that KFed raps better than Robbie. It is utter tripe and I hope it does very badly for Robbie for presuming he can inflict such trash on people. Phew, that is enough of that. Luckily enough I did get some other CDs which were very satisfying, and will be entering the permanent collection, to make up for the disappointment. Robbie really was so bad I was almost nauseous.
Now I have a few other dilemmas to deal with. I have acquired quite a few books whilst here which I am not taking back to the UK, and now have to try to find some sort of donation place for those (as well as one Robbie CD) and also a lot of clothes that will not be making the trip back. Easier said than done in Manhattan I think, but any suggestions gratefully received - I refuse to throw things away particularly coming into winter when they could be either recycled or used for less fortunate people. So that is my new mission for today.
Nothing particularly hilarious on the TVs this morning, although every channel had non-stop election coverage. Thankfully that will all be over tonight (although of course everyone is hoping for a LATE night, just to keep the "excitement" going). I could do without the excitement really.
Bring on Boston on Friday I say - I am looking forward to watching the Charles River go by ...
