Rank Amateur. I quite like film photography, all MY pics are copyright. I like music of nearly every variety and can mostly be found nestling in the past with my open reel recorder and cameras. My real name is Bill.

I find it soothing.
That is all.

It's not your fault you're in agony, brother. Complain as much as you like, suffering in silence only helps if it might alert Ze Germans.

Lots of cheap gewgaws, the nearest of which is being lit by a beam of rainbow sunlight split from a triangular prism.

'In fact we Scots were instrumental in the development of TV, but do regale me with tales of cultural wonder from Noel's House Party.'
I love English several people dearly, but as a nation they really are very self regarding. I don't think it's on purpose but that's how it comes off.

I once had a charming conversation with a witty and elegant English actress who bewildered me part way through our chat by asking what we called level crossings in Scotland. She was educated and travelled the globe and wasn't having a joke with me about it.
I think about it quite often.

I did.
I'm also strangely happy.
Don't know why, but then again, the why doesn't really matter. I'll take the Happy where I can find it.

People in England often refer to the UK as England.
Gleefully and willfully if you ask me.
