Instead of my usual listening to a couple more pods on the way home, I put on Amazon Music, and let it play the songs it thought I might like, and it wasn’t wrong most of the time.

Artists included Queen, Electric Light Orchestra, Porcupine Tree, The Beatles, Depeche Mode, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and more like that.

There were one or two based on Louise’s listening at home, which I cheekily just skipped. The wonder of having a holder in the car that I can reach with relative ease. “Pop” music makes me more tired when I’m already pushing myself to stay awake!
