This time, PM has managed to pin down Rob from Morton Valence and ask him our usual pertinent posers. This could well be the first subject where the final question is answered with one statement. Then again, on hearing Morton Valence’s latest album, it comes as no surprise. Bitterness and loveliness all bundled up like paired socks in an overnight bag.
In a word, how’s your week?
Average.
What did you get up to last night and how was it?
I won 4 quid on a scratch card and found myself singing Goldfinger in a karaoke bar, a perfect night.
What’s for dinner tonight and who’s cooking it?
A kebab probably, probably the Turkish fella in the kebab shop.
What have you listened to today and did you like it?
My neighbours singing along to Beyonce’s Put a Ring On It, it wasn’t bad.
What’s your favourite/least favourite thing that’s happened this week?
Falling in love.
