If you understand the request you may be ok, but if you don't know the sauce, or you don't realise the prep it must be a nightmare. But hats off to them all for trying

I think I missed spoken word at that time, Time and Tune with booklet. Music Mime and Movement no book, although I have a BBC internal 78 with the infamous balls high up and low down. Then later remember a history one going back in time to Mesopotamia via the magic of a harp crescendo

I keep hearing reports on the news channel.

I need to update the kit at work, need a cluster of 4 servers with at least 256Gb in each, and a many Tb SSD based SAN, switches etc even without looking at software, to say it is eyewatering is an understatement, 6 figures.

My dad was "stunt double" for his knocking on the aircraft canopy..
Unrelated other than the same programme, I was in the row in front of Zena Skinner going to Ercan airport. Her food and beverage experience came useful when deciding the Gin served was actually JetA

You've obviously got a good memory if you remember Truss, she was hardly in at the front door.

I knew Jeremy a little as he lived close by. Most of us weren't. It was frightening seeing him at 11. He was in the year above

Matt is a breath of air, someone who has learnt the art I'd presenting over many years, and knows his cooking. Not a shouty greengrocer

So weird, an hour ago it was green and grey. I came back to it scrolling down and pink and white. same lighting etc.. odd

Odd location for the classical bunch!
It was a much more rounded feel then. I know, but can't remember the name or country, a leading African politician got into politics because he listened to John Peel, and caught the news as an afterthought.

No King or His Majesty.. a bit limiting their demographic there

Haven't done that for 32 years when we had 3 months notice of our office being closed down.
I think the 3pm closing time had its point.

Absolutely. Met him once. I know when my late dad did a world service "Duty Tour" of India, the question he was always asked was 'Do you know Tully Sahib?'
Respect.

I know we are currently very different in so many ways, but looking at the way a politician has used a national policing force as a paramilitary army under their control over the pond, do we want a national force here?

I wrote one in 2018 and the next was to HMCTS last year for probate. As I have since the millennium I dated it eg 4-xi-MMXXV and it was returned as invalid. Never been a problem before.

except it wasn't. It was 28 years ago. What has happened to my arithmetic?

For Jim Moir/Vic Reeves' birthday, a reminder it's thirty years this year since this advert.

I always think people should celebrate their LP day, 33โ…“ years. 4 months after 33rd birthday, โ…“ of a century, a chance to celebrate at a different time of the year.

I did, unfortunately it was 18 years ago. Determined this should be a thing.
