Good so far - like the concept. It's going well with the wine I've got, but not with the mood I'm in, as it's Friday, I'm off work and pretty happy about it. Still, it's neat and I'll be here till the end.
I'm not too great at song selection, and my mp3 collection is kind of a mess, but that elvis costello / burt bacharach album was just what I was in the mood for tonight. I'd have played it all through if it didn't violate the rules. But I can appreciate that it probably doesn't match most people's mood on a friday night. Thanks for listening anyway.
