Moby says Britney Spears 'isn't music'. So what is?

Good piece in the The Guardian about Moby and some rather silly comments he recently made about pop. Coming from an artist who made millions from music for ads its a bit odd!

"In hypocritically describing pop as 'advertising for ringtones', Moby fails to grasp the genre's great emotional highs and lows" etc......

Fresh Crabs from Beer in Devon for Tea!

Bought two crabs from the fish shop on the beach at Beer in Devon on Bank Holiday Monday for £10 ie £2.50 per pound. Lovely litle fish shop with fresh fish from the boats that land daily on the beach below the shop. We saw a big box of large crabs, that had been landed that morning and had been cooked so were still very warm. Eating them for tea a couple of hours later took well over an hour as extracting the flesh, cracking the claws etc is a long fiddly process. Good fun though! Beautiful delicate, nutty, slightly salty flavour. When this fresh crab is not at all fishy.
