I’m feeling generally under the weather today: definitely tiredness, possibly a delayed reaction to that flu jab, possibly both. Blogging activity is therefore largely curtailed this evening. I haven’t done a lot today anyway except lie around and read, so there isn’t much to write about.
No 1970 music post today either, for the same reason.

Music: the random album pulled from the shelf this evening was Spike Milligan and Jeremy Taylor Live at Cambridge University (1974). I think I probably bought the album at the old Greyfriars Market on Forrest Road in Edinburgh, where much of my student grant went.
This is a somewhat ‘old school’ performance–chap with a guitar adopting a persona to deliver a song–but the song is important because, believe it or not, while the phrase ‘more than my job’s worth’ is old, it is this song that’s generally credited as the origin of calling someone a jobsworth.
