Hows it going thern Ruby2? Hope your brain is ok after doing all of that!! I PM you a joke if you like!!!
Oh it's not really going at all - thanks for asking bbm. I'm meant to be reading through a ton of alternative material we're potentially adapting but it's astonishinly boring so I keep doing stuff like this instead, and researching external hard drives.  I'm a master of the diversion activity when the need arises. Sad

All jokes welcome. Always  Smiley

Right.  I'm going to read this thing now before I make any more posts.  Grrrrrrr... I can't look at it for longer than 3 seconds, it's so boring my head is going to implode....

Why aren't there any painkillers in the jungle?

Because the parrots eat 'em all.

Did you hear about the Magic Tractor?

It went down the road and turned into a field.

Two Mexican's got lost in a desert.

One said to the other, I see an oasis, he said

The other one said, remember, Pedro, your in a desert. Pedro says, i know, look there is a tree with bacon on it!!

Franco, the other one, said, Pedro you are seeing things!! Pedro said, no, I see it!!

Oh dear. I don't get it. Guess I'm off to the Grumpy Old Rant Room.

Oh! I'm already here!

EDIT: I get it now. We call that acetaminophen

But surely the last thing you'd want, stuck in the desert and dying with thirst, would be cured meat?

Having that special R4 messageboarders meet-up tomorrow (with one who's travelled from sunny California!) but judging by the rain today and similar forecast for tomorrow we'll be stuck indoors. Sad We were hoping to take the kids to the park first to burn up some energy. Better pack a big bag of games to keep them all occupied - bored children are never a good idea!

You might be lucky MJ, the forecast for tomorrow is better than today, though there's still some rain around. It's pretty wet here in Brum at the moment.

My first rant in some while, I think. So the last couple of days have been the first 'free' ones for me for weeks - free, that is, of stultifying university work and thus an opportunity to do some sustained composing. Bang on cue,
1) Next door decides Wednesday was the day to start his extensive DIY work and decorating. Yes, we're talking hammers.
2) The water people decide the same day would be just perfect to start doing the work they should have done last year, connecting my supply to the new mains, but didn't (or forgot to) and that they came to put right a couple of months ago, but didn't because they couldn't figure out where the supply went, and are now, finally with the bit between their teeth, making a total pig's ear out of. Yes, we're talking pile drivers, steam hammers, pneumatic drills, the works.

I somehow doubt that, Ron. But in any case, I've got all the rhythms I noted down from the previous two occasions to use first...  Tongue

I'm so sorry to hear it, Martle.

Whenever I settle down to compose, my wife calls me and tells me to change a diaper nappie to you Brits.

Brendel's last London recital tonight. It was _______.
So, what am I doing in here?

There was a 'female dog' on the stairs afterwards, walking rather slowly - not disabled - just a bit too sedate. I might have been outside the world enough to lightly and accidentally knock my leg against her bag once or twice, but she looked round, presumably had the poop scared out of her, turned to her companion and said, quite audibly:

"You'd better let him past you, otherwise he might push you over." Both then had a bit of a chuckle.

Nothing could have brought me back to Earth more abruptly. The paranoid, stereotyping ......... got a dirty look for that, I can tell you. And after such an unspeakably good concert.
