RMweb Premium eldavo Posted September 28, 2011 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 28, 2011 Morning All, Didn't get to look at the forums yesterday as I was on a boys day out to South Wales. Checked out the Big Pit museum and quite a few pubs. Descending 90 metres in a pit head cage and wandering around underground in a coal mine is an interesting experience. Nothing like how it would have been for the workers but fascinating all the same. A lot of Wales seemed to be closed! Been stuck with Barbara Streisand "you don't bring me flowers" for several days but moved on at last. Seems to be Scherezade at the moment! Have a good one all.

Guest Max Stafford Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Bright clear morning here again. Working 2-11 today so time to make the best of it. I quite enjoyed the novelty of a 9-5 shift yesterday but at least this shift allows me to get up at a reasonable time. Last night I re-branded and numbered two Bachmann K3s for the project. It was a pretty spontaneous act as they'd been sitting under a pile of round tuits for a few months. I'm also repainting a couple of coach sides and I hope to make a little progress on this before work. Dave. PS. Roy Budd - Carter takes a train.

Guest tony graham Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 A rather a relaxed morning this morning as SWMBO is suffering after last nights falling down water. Windows to clean this afternoon before taking myself along to the doctors for an MOT. And as its a rather nice day here in Carlisle I think I will take the chance to walk to town and walk off the calories or at least some of them from last nights meal we had with the olds to celebrate Mother Olds 60th.

trisonic Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 (edited) Hey! I'm 60 this year but only 19 in my head...........................my daughter is 15. Best, Pete. PS Still running through the nuances of Tony's "Rainy Night in Georgia" I really dig the half sung, half spoken introduction: "Hoverin' by my suitcase, trying to find a warm place to stay the night. Heavy rain fallin', seems I hear your voice calling 'It's alright...'" Edited September 28, 2011 by trisonic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trisonic Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 (edited) Afraid so - tho' I still have all my hair and most of it still not grey either. You must have been here for a long time if you were in 'Nam - or was that later? This is a recent photo (with the late Barry Webber from Antiques Roadshow (USA) - my best pal over here). I'm the one with the Strat. Best, Pete. PS Still "Rainy Night....." Edited September 28, 2011 by trisonic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted September 28, 2011 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 28, 2011 Hello. I woke up this mornin', the interweb was down Oh, I woke this m... etc! Everything (well everything internet related) working again. Perhaps the lack of internet actually caused me to have an earworm today (and realise I'd need to remember to remember) Anyway it was Gypsy Rose as sung by Tracy Grammer.

RMweb Gold BoD Posted September 28, 2011 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 28, 2011 Are earworms contagious? How far can they jump? Can they spread over the net? Such are the mysteries of life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trisonic Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 (edited) Music for Don Bradley. Here's something wot I wrote that you may like, Don. It's a Requiem for my Great Uncle George Hadler of the Royal West Kents who was slaughtered on the Somme, one amongst many tens of thousands, yet I wanted him remembered. You can see a photo of him on the website for Sittingbourne's War Memorial: Requiem - George Hadler.mp3 Hope this works. If anyone likes it you can download it. I recorded it and mixed to CD standards but this version is Mp3. To listen just click on it. Er, if you find it endlessly cycles click stop after the two solo muffled drum beats! This is not some trisonic plan to implant "earworms".................... Best, Pete. Edited September 28, 2011 by trisonic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium NGT6 1315 Posted September 29, 2011 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 29, 2011 Morning all. Daylight's slowly setting in over here and far as the weather forecast goes, the Indian summer will most likely last through the weekend. Pete - I'll have a listen soon, thanks for sharing! Should ERs have their own signature tune? Suggestions? I suggest either Aaron Copland's "Fanfare for the Common Man", "Utopia" or "So Pure" by Alanis Morissette (yes, I do like her music... ), "Here Comes the Sun" by the Beatles, or Billy Joel's "River of Dreams".

DDolfelin Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Well, 'So Pure' might have been appropriate before the introduction of Sam. How about 'Show me the way to go home' ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Morning All, It looks like it is going to be another nice day today. It started off a little misty and rather dewey - but the sun will be up soon and the sky is clear. I'm glad it is nearly the weekend. It is a long one too! Have a good day everyone...

travelintrev Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Morning all, had a couple of internetless days, which has been a real pain, as it's almost the only contact with the rest of the world! can't comment on the music, being tone deaf, and only remembering bits from my youth ............ misty here this morning which means it might be warm later, and still the A/C in the cars not fixed,Grrrrrr! Enjoy your day folks Trev Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonBradley Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Pete, Thank you for the requiem. You cannot have known him, since he must have died 35 years before you were born. My respect for you has leapt upwards prodigeously. I must presume that it was played on some form of synthesiser, since I could hear an organ, strings,trumpet, drums and a huge choir!. . Should ERs have their own signature tune? How about "Morning" from Edvard Grieg's Peer Gynt, but even more appropriatly, Sullivan's duet by the two Kings in Gondoliers, "Rising Early in the morning we proceed to light the fire etc. etc. etc.......

DonBradley Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Dd, How is the cracked tooth? Will it impact on your enjoyment of chilled wine in Mallorca? Robert, and Mike, thanks for he updates on Thomas and Jamie. I am always interested in their progress. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium skipepsi Posted September 29, 2011 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 29, 2011 Morning all,bit chilly at present but if the day is like yesterday I won't be complaining. challenge is struggling but hopefully I will get some pictures up later today.

DonBradley Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 I started to listen to the Earle track and was initially thrilled to hear bagpipes but that very quickly changed and I switched off as soon as he opened his mouth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDolfelin Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Cracked tooth is just very, very irritating, Don. Anything out of order in the mouth becomes a focus of one's constant attention. Not painful - just always there. I've also started unintentional spitting at people. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordon s Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 (edited) Morning campers... Got back last night after three days of glorious sun, eating, drinking and my best attempts to play golf. The countryside and views of the Gower Peninsula were outstanding. Another hidden gem... Paying for it all this morning with every joint in urgent requirement of WD40. Seems we're in for a few scorching days. Track in my head is 'Fresh air for my mama' from 10cc. Could listen to their stuff all day long for the lyrics alone. Very witty and clever, just like ER's....
