Very Grammatic - Watch Raptors Shake England



Yeah - last year was pretty exciting, though I was only manning the Games counter, and the Thai Royal Birdwatching Society's (or something) booth. Hundreds of people flocked onto the open field of PNB Ilham Resort, watched raptors flying pass through (the binocular & telescope booth was a big hit around that time), and basically had a great time there, pricey food notwithstanding. This year though I'll be in with the Nature Guide team, which is excellent (I'm all for nature walks). Training is on this Saturday, the whole shebang is on the following weekend. Will come up with a report of this Saturday's excursion if anything interesting took place. In the meantime, PJ Harvey's Let England Shake is still giving me a hard time for me to properly digest it. Let me just say that for now, it's still pretty... rancid. From what I gather, this album has a very dominant political theme to it, which kind of explain the 'angry' sound of this album, and great timing as well with the current political turmoil broiling in the Arab countries, the songs resonates very well with the spirit of the time. We could be looking/listening at the soundtrack of the current time here - the stylistics though is another matter which we're still getting acquainted with. This is angry time for all of us.
