    Have and the Hunt for Red October, but also a film nobody has heard of "Finding Forrester",
    which is interesting as Sean is not in control in it & is vulnerable.

    Meanwhile
    Packing to leave Brighton and get back to London.
    This is the first weekend i've spend alone with my Sister since i was 16
    and i'm 27 on Friday.

    Brighton is lovely & i'd def live him if i could afford it, get a job down here
    or been able to commuter with a train service that's reliable.

    I want one of these

    If that sort of music interests you consider this radio show.
    https://tunein.com/radio/Bachelor-Pad-at-Colony-3-p291941/
    Its just 1 hour a week but the best of that era of loungy music.. and the DJ is a riot.
    https://soundcloud.com/jon-edenholm
    (2+ year old shows here, but still basically the same)

    Its a bit of an acquired taste, but someone might get a kick out of it...

    Blossom Dearie!? Now there's a name I haven't heard in a long time! :rolleyes:

    PS
    I've just remembered that the first time I heard the song "Midnight at the Oasis" on the radio (performed by Maria Muldaur - https://forum.phun.org/threads/the-poetry-of-pop.1387255/#post-8108697) I mentioned it to a lady work colleague, who immediately assumed I was referring to a Blossom Dearie version! I don't think I've ever heard such a version? Has she ever recorded it?

    It's simply a fact that the number of folk that you and I have never heard of is simply vast, and growing constantly. :rolleyes:

    I got the Rocky Mountains and lots of proudly crazy and dumb people. After that, ummm, it's more like an act of charity on your part to trade. Please? PLEASE?! Nah, I'm not gonna wish this dumpster fire on an awesome person and friend:empathy:

    You guys in/near The Rockies might get loads of snow, which is fabulous for the photographers and skiers, but in the UK, while we don't get anything like as much, it frequently catches us unprepared, and it almost always appears to be "the wrong sort"!
    Allegedly having about 15 different words to describe types of snow, Eskimos probably have precisely the right words for ours, which I assume must be allocated to us by the EU?
    Perhaps we'll have a more picturesque, gentler and more manageable snow regime after Brexit?

    Morning
    Icy, frosty and cold, very cold, very Narnian and it's Sunny aka i love it.
    I've lived in 4 different countries, i've learnt that the grass isn't always on the other side.
    But if you have money, you're insulated wherever you live.

    In saying that, here's some things i don't think are normal.
    In Britain: 11& 12 yr olds being sent on trains (as they're too young to drive) to act as drug mules by gangs.
    When i was 12 i was, never mind what i was doing when i was 12.

    In the US: (which i love!!!) no problems with "Right to bear arms", for your own personal handgun.
    But not enough to arm your own personal army.

    Anywhere: Politician (of whatever party or Independent) who say they alone can fix it or give the impression
    that everything is simple or straightforward, it isn't.

    Meanwhile
    I've just nearly choked on a banana at work, you'd think with a number of cocks i've sucked.
    I could handle a banana.

    Move over Mrs. Maisel, I'm gonna do Stand up.
    Look up Mrs. Maisel Soundtrack 1 & 2 on You Tube, there's some brilliant playlists!!!!

    I had style, I had grace, even while I was turning blue.
