Day 13: A Song about Meat
Mark Knopfler: My Bacon Roll
Much of Knopflers solo work follows traditional working class themes. This song embodies the struggles associated with change. I empathise. My coffee remains instant, white, with two sugars!

He definitely made a mistake. Said it before, but in the same position, circumstances and understanding, I would have appointed him. Trump needed managing and Mandleson was the person who could do it. It was a gamble. In leadership, we all gamble.
Starting to get into their music. I really like this song
Thank you

I had to dig deep for this one. Not on vinyl or CD, but hidden away on an old Ramones playlist I had created years ago!

Thankfully, I never did!
