Mulled spiced bleach! I'll have to tell this one to my Welsh friend and neighbour Jean who always serves Gluhwein at her twelfth night party...also has been known to wear a neclace of leeks on St. David's Day! Tree guru was here this afternoon, took a look, and said he'd be back on Tuesday with a crane to lift the tree off the house. Estimated cost of removal: $2,500.-$3,000.. Insurance will cover the removal of the tree from the house and up to $500. for removal of wood from the property.

A miserable morning in London - grey, damp cold and dark. The thought of this evening's Takemitsu and Ligeti gig shines through!

"The skies are charcoal gray,
It's a dreary downtown day,
But at the end of my 40 foot leash,
Is my little friend Quiche.
Quiche La Poodle is her name
And having a good time on a crummy day is our game.
Quiche Quiche Lorraine
Quiche Quiche Lorraine
Everyday I take her out. Yea!
She runs around, she shouts out and barks, Yeah!"
And I think we can all learn something from these wise words from Fred and his gang.

If it's any consolation (though I rather doubt that it will be), it's no better here in Herefordistan and there's so such gig around these parts to attend!Originally posted by Beef Oven!

Mind you, Wallace Stevens notwithstanding, A Mind of Winter is something wot I 'aven't got(ten), for the moment that the air temperature drops below around 12.5⁰ I've had it, really; I just can't do winter...Comment

No, eighth, but I'm a long way from Falkirk - and why would I want to go there, anyway?Originally posted by eighthobstruction View Post

Falkirk is the smallest town in Britain with 3 professional football teams. Fact.
(if you include Stenhousemuir which is in the borough, I think).I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.
