At this point it's more about the music, innit? The dart stats take care of themselves.

Another take on Flash in the Pan's 'Waiting For A Train'. This time it's called a 'French Take', which at first listen suggests a Kraftwerk 'Tour De France' connection. Still sounds brilliant. With regards to Flash in the Pan, I knew they were Australian but I didn't know about the Easybeats connection. And Easybeats means George Young, which means AC/DC and his two wee brothers. Now that's just asking to be a pub quiz question.

Cracking Pathfinder column from this month's Socialist Standard:

"It is the year 2028. You have just put the kids to bed, and adjusted your ageing parents nightly feed tubes. It is 11.00 pm and you are still wearing the same dressing gown you got up in. You are tired out with looking after the whole family in one flat, and now it’s time to go to work . . ." [Home Is Where The Heart Attack is ...]
