  1. I don't know which bar the rest of you are in but I'm a small dive with a radio tuned to film noir. I'm drinking more coffee than is good for my sleep but the barman has such witty repartee, and the customers are funny. Funny and drunk. I should go home soon.
  2. People in the comments suggest playing this at a faster speed than normal. I found 1.5 is as fast as you can play it before the piano sounds weird, but normal was fine for me anyway.
  3. I messaged you. I don't think it's wise to say anything more in public about this as we've already had a clear instruction not to discuss it.
  4. People whose name starts with G - take out the rubbish/garbage/trash. Oh, that's me too.
  5. I dun has any ideas but just waving to another Tiny. Tell us when you ready and we come and help you eat cake.
  6. I had a heart scan today which seems all fine, and I was able to help three or four people in various ways, and as it was a sunny day I did without hospital transport home, instead taking the bus. I stopped off at the shopping centre on the way and noticed that it looked more prosperous than last year. I bought three puzzle magazines, then took the bus the rest of the way and had a lovely walk home from the bus stop. It began pouring with rain on the journey but it all stopped before I got off, and the sun shone again, and the sky was a beautiful blue, the flowers in planters on the street shone with raindrops, the birds were twittering merrily, and when I got home I ate a KitKat (for which I feel no guilt at all, never mind what people are saying in the peeves topic). So I thanked God for a lovely day.
  7. This is an excerpt from a German film about which I knew nothing but came across while searching for a hymn (the organ version of which I posted to the 'Listening' topic). I'm posting it because the sung rendition is movingly done in this scene.
  8. This needs to be played loud enough to be felt in your ribs.
  9. I thought the little donkey might enjoy a feed after his efforts today.
  10. From Bach's Cantata BWV 182, for Palm Sunday.
  11. I grew up watching a lot of Westerns. I suppose they were cheap imports for the cash-strapped BBC. Anyway, I enjoyed them, and the songs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3V5shj-gwNg . Video won't embed, sorry, so here's one that will.
  12. Not getting into your discussion with someone else BUT I do want to point out that I'm not dead yet, neither are my siblings, or thousands of other people who might well have kept their ration books, as my parents did for me.
  13. Well, I'd like that. Sadly I know of only one. Feel free to share the locations of those other places with me. How petty and childish of you. Accept that other people have different opinions and go do your thing where it's the norm. Or are you not in favour of diversity? [Edit to keep nearer the topic] Have a free nightmare on me - SL becomes a place with no swearing at all, anywhere.
  14. I have no idea. You might get some good answers in this forum. Hardly anyone looks at this topic.
