Brian’s Mixtape #31: All at Sea
This week Brian’s been completely and utterly unaffected by the volcanic ash cloud. He’s not even been subject to a light dusting, the lucky bird. He has, however, been following the news with avid interest and has concluded that all…
Brian’s Mixtape #30: Duelling and storytelling
A large chunk of Brian’s record collection was purchased after a recommendation by his uncle Peter, who has an enormous library of albums and an insatiable enthusiasm for music. Brian thought it might be good for FFS’s readers to benefit…
Brian’s Mixtape #29: Parliament of Fowls
Safely installed in his cosy nest, Brian’s been musing on how great his winged neighbours are. Birds are a splendid bunch – lots of them sing (although admittedly with varying levels of success), some of them are darned attractive (Mr…
Brian’s Mixtape #28: Talkin’ ‘Bout A Revolution
Our regular readers will be pleased to hear that Brian’s got himself together now. He’s decided to stop all this wallowing and introversion and turn his thoughts to more important matters. Brian’s as concerned as any of us about the…

Every discerning folk fan’s foul of choice, Brian Wilson II, is pleased to announce that spring has most definitely sprung. He’s spent most of the morning being dragged around a meadow by a fresh-born lamb in whose fleece his talons…
Brian’s mixtape #24: Because We Want To
Readers, we’re a little worried. After his absence a couple of weeks ago, Brian’s been acting a bit strangely. He used to be such a lovely tidy, polite owl but now Brian’s stomping about like a petulant teenager, his roost…
Brian’s Mixtape #23: Bring in the new
Some of our more dedicated readers might be wondering what the eff is going on with our Brian. He’s become somewhat lackadaisical about his playlist-composing duties lately, and we suspect he might be, well, having a hoot elsewhere. If anyone…
