Homeward bound

On the day: 
05/12/2012 

On the way: 
If you've got a flat-brimmed leather hat and a long black coat that reaches more than half way down your black jeans. If you're wearing a black waistcoat with a fob-watch chain hanging out of its pocket, over your deep burgundy shirt. 
And if you have a well-worn a paisley silk cravat and you're reading the latest issue of the New Scientist. And if you're carrying a studded wooden box about three feet long and one foot deep in the shape of a coffin with edges scuffed and surfaces scraped from years of service to music. 
And of course it helps if you have a noble aquiline nose, soulful Morten Harket eyes in dark blue and a mature but well-groomed beard. 
Well, then, no one is going to worry about the bald patch at the centre of your silvering mane.
Now where can I get me summa dat? 

On the pod: 
High - Stabbing Westward 

On the front page: 
Better than carbon neutral (New Scientist)
