You’re multiplying? You’re not caught in a mirror by any chance?

oh and btw @blenkinsopthebrave – I like how you manage to use glitches rather than tut about them!

;¬)

When i now hear the CD versions of songs I grew up knowing only though the ‘jumps’ in scratched vinyl it still makes me rush a beat!

Which also is a reason to thank you as it’s reminded me to listen to this as an album rather than randomly…[Read more]

@rob me too! Last week and lost the whole hog. Luckily, a mate had brought me a new (very small, mind) coffee plunger with a sweet bean. I had just come home and fancied a good brew. So, rob it calmed me down. We have merlo coffee here? And if you purchase a large tin of it (as I did about 3 months ago) they give you a free coffee AND a $5 voucher…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave

Sorry abt that: I meant the older seasons many decades ago, where they had an eon to change attire. 🙂

And yes, I don’t fully understand the complaints. It was a good ol’fashioned romp made a lot smarter as a woman managed to “keep talking because she’s in favour of it because it solves problems.”

I was excited by -what I…[Read more]

@miapatrick: good points. And valid as it explains why the villagers wouldn’t have questioned the ‘dress code’ – what with them all summoned to the lake for a prompt ducking. Also, dress code: not a priority considering the dead horses, 35 people ducked and dead, etc

@kevinwho I think that the prisoners had been particularly bad -the fact they’d…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave – thanks for the Ennio update (@Mudlark ‘s entropy update was also good to hear but in an entirely different way).

The clip you linked to has a slight glitch (for me) in the audio – it just cuts out after one of the solos (around two and a half minutes in).
So I hunted around and found this version of the same concert.

It…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave

Yes, it does sometimes feel as if I’m beginning to disintegrate, but considering all the near-misses I’ve had in my life, from  polio at age 6* onward, I’m just happy to have survived so far in relatively bouncing form. And the inner me is  no than 30 – probably less.

* The mild form of the disease, so for me it entailed a l…[Read more]

@thane16

Oh, Puro! I was having such a good day and you go and spoil it all by mentioning Theresa May. Grrrr 🙂

@pedant

I think they did show 1984 a few months ago but, due to my sieve-like brain, I forgot to watch it. They have a tendency to repeat films every few months so I dare say it’ll be on again soon.

True Entertainment have The…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave @whisht Ha ha thanks for the props. Idiot Heights would be far more apposite but what’s the point of the internet if you can’t dress yourself up with a bit of fictional grandeur? How about Whishtminster Palace? 🙂

@mudlark A bit late, but I just want to add my voice to those wishing you well. Hope your nose is causing no…[Read more]

Can I just add to @blenkinsopthebrave ‘s delight in “Savon Manor”

If I’d had your name I’d have probably been my usual self-deprecating self by going with “Idiot Heights” but I’d have castigated you @idiotsavon for doing so!

As its my antonym I can’t really take this, but will anyone on this Forum go with “xxx Barracks” ?

;¬)

I’d love to…[Read more]

@thane16 Ah the storm. It passed over here yesterday. Lots of bangs and thumps and enough rain to keep the garden happy for a week or so. Rather a treat not having to water the garden at this time of year.

@blenkinsopthebrave The Jacarandas are almost finished blooming here. They are always magnificent. Much to the ire of our neighbours we do not…[Read more]
