      Did Schopenhauer have anything to say about clog dancing?

        My own hero, Kierkegaard, had surprisingly little to say about clog dancing. But I'm sure cavatina will alert us to any peculiar insights that Schopenhauer brought to the subject.

              Blimey, I've just noticed that he is also presenting the Grainger Prom just before the clog dancing - the man really is frighteningly ubiquitous.

                I think he's a sort of Golem, built by Bill Tidy as a tribute to his famous strip cartoon The Cloggies, An everyday Story of Dancing Folk.

                  But Cavatina is Schopenhauer, or was Schopenhauer last year and fell in love with Mr Right, well she did but he didn't because he doesn't know her and I don't think Schopenhauer ever mentioned clogs but Eudaimonia said Schopenhauer had popped her clogs and that she was infatuated with Mr Right as well, then she popped her clogs as well and Cavatina......zzzz

                    I could never understand the scoring system in the Cloggies. They had fractions like 74/77ths.

                      I wish he'd taken his sunglasses off when he spoke to people in the street and why is he wearing his cap in the dance hall when he's talking to the teacher?

                      I've never quite warmed to Charles Hazelwood.

                        Unlike his feet, perhaps, CH's heart is in the right place.
                        Have a look at this Charles!
