How do you feel today?
Great. Haven't been swimming for two whole weeks but got in the pool tonight and blasted out a 43min breaststroke mile with no pauses or rests. That's 66 lengths in old money. Felt fine at the end of it too. I was getting a bit bored as …

What`s the last film you watched ?
I'm still confused that the trailer got through quality control. The caption comes up saying "World War Z" and the voice says "World War Zee". There's no zee on the screen, only a great big ZED

What's your Favourite Live Track ?
Two choices for very different reasons. 1st) Lovely Head. There's something about the husky tone of such a classy intro, no warning of the attack you're about to receive when that second mic stand gets grasped into submission. Some night…

I'm very disappointed to hear there are no mere presence of moogs or synths. It's beginning to sound conventional again, albeit lovely. That's the funny thing about us lot on here - one person's disappointment is anothers Happin…

Great Emika shots, both of them, as are the ones in the booklet you've probably still not seen yet!

Not so much art as more general photography. Was out testing my Canon's zoom at the weekend - this was pure optical with no digital zoom or post:-

That looks like low-fat cheese or processed slices? They never quite melt properly like that!

What's Your Favourite Goldfrapp Album - At The Mo?.
Tales of Us, hands down. I can understand TOU being your favourite after you've heard it (and that might well be the case for a good few on here) but how can it be your favourite album off the back of less 1min of it so far?

On the trailer - that's it as yet! Is it the third track? Certainly is - only a tiny bit of it. I mentioned in the first tread post why I've been drawn to it already.

Premiere of 'Tales of us' at Manchester Int Festival, July 17/18 2013
The thing about two nights (and yes, this is how I convinced myself) is that the first night is for the whole experience and the second night for the actual music. As a bonus you get the daytime between them with the other Frappers in Manchester. It…

Wow, so that's real film? All mine are little phone pics edited in digital. I'd love to get into analogue photography. Yeah, just a nice b&w 35mm. I used to use Ilford HP5+ 120mm Medium Format film - that stuff was fun to play with! …

What's your favourite photo of Alison ?
They don't make it easy create new threads on this forum though, when you start a discussion there's a drop down box of which category to put your thread in. Which is HIGHLY UNUSUAL. Ah, but if you're already in one of the categorie…

What's your favourite photo of Alison ?
Can I add a rule or two? Each person posts one pic and if you change your mind you have to edit your one photo post.That'll make folks think! My pick? It might surprise people (ie it's not the "Blue Dress And Legs" one) and it&…
