I hope her absence is not due to my presence. We had a rather bruising skirmish not so long ago.
Given the impatient demand for her return, if this is the case, I will offer to fall on my sword...

Don't be so selfish, take a tub of paracetamol quaffed down with some of that cheap whisky that Cali drinks. That way it's less mess for the emergency services/friends/family that happen upon your corpse a few days later.Originally posted by Thropplenoggin View Post

Certainly has nothing to do with yourself. Anyway, she was on here earlier today. The forum goes into communal fawning from time to time, it's what we do (I was gonna come in and fifth or sixth it). This was the latest episode.

If this board isn't big enough for two music lovers, then its a sad state of affairs.
But it is, so it isn't !!
Anyway, here is a reminder of summer, for lovers of Skylarks, from Wiltshire's finest pop group.
I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.
I am not a number, I am a free man.Comment

Depends on how much whisk(e)y he knock backs, doesn't it? If he tries, he could have it all sorted in 36 hours, methinks.Originally posted by eighthobstruction View PostComment

Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.

Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

Very touched by all the messages here, thankyou. I've looked in here regularly (I don't usually log out anyway), but have had to limit screentime drastically because of severe headaches. Lots of bed-rest and near-hibernation.Originally posted by amateur51 View PostBitterns! How wonderful RT

Some here will know I had major brain surgery for a tumour a few years ago, life's never the same after that, but 2013 has been worse....at the moment, screenstaring brings the pain on directly, a little better this week - so having to use computers for business and other mundanities I need to ration it out... pleased to see Hindemith being discussed, he's my current passion. I'll try to post something musical soon...
Thropplenoggin, desist! Put away your sword and listen to some Magnard instead. All's fair in love and war! (and music...)
