Following on from yesterday’s alien mind probe shenanigans, another strange piece of synchronicity. I was just this morning thinking about how it’s now about six months since I heard from or wrote to an old friend of mine – and then, who should email me this afternoon but – yes – said friend. She was writing to inform me of the Grauniad article on the First Vienna Vegetable Orchestra, a quite terrifying musical troupe whose specialities include pumpkin solos and a disturbingly phallic instrument made out of a cucumber. The MP3 samples have to be heard to be believed. Quite, quite terrifying.
