Greetings World's !!
A Wife came home, from doing the shopping - to find her husband, stood in the kitchen, with a fly swatter. She asked "What are
doing ?"..... to which the man replied, "Killing flies - so far, I've killed 5... 3 males & 2 females". The Wife asked "How do you know what sex they were ?" "Simple" - her Husband replied..." 3 were on the bear can & the other 2 were on the 'phone !!"
My thank's to Dawn French.....
A day or 2 back, we had the 1st fatal crash, out on the main road....... I don't know who it was, but... !! We did wonder how long it would take - we always have fatalities, as the road is a pain in the ass & people die, every year, as the traffic gets heavier & heavier. Our Prayers are with all those involved.
Ok - it's another Sunday, here in England's South-West corner & it's really cold outside !! It's so cold, I've actually clicked the thermostat, to bring the heating on !! I'm sat here, really cold.... sooooo... the heating has gone on !!
Mind you - I'm feeling like carp, again, today.... so - the heating is just a little treat, to make me feel a little better !! I'm just an old softy really..... nevermind. I hope you enjoyed Dawn French's joke ? When B read it out, to me, a few minutes ago, I thought "why not ?" so - I put it in my blog, for you guys to read !!
Talking of B - My Wife & Dearest Friend is outside, cutting the back lawn down to size !! Yesterday, we bought a new strimmer, to attack the longer grass.... and it seem to be working !! She is out side, happy as all can be, using her new bit of machinery !!
I did go outside, at the beginning - just to make sure that I had set it up right, for her... to which "Yes" was the firm reply. So - with B outside, I'm in here..... with the heating on, listening to 2 new albums, that I picked up, at the record fair, yesterday !!
Well - I came home, with 3 new albums.... only to find, that one of them was a re-issue of an album I already had.....sooooo - that was a bit of a bummer really !!
Anyhoo - the 3 albums were:
'Gremlins Have Pictures' by Roky Erickson
'Noita' by Korpiklaani
'Together Again III' by Page & Plant.
In a way, I came home with 2 albums, I already had.... mainly as I had the last one, on tape, from about 20 years ago !! It was the first boot, that I picked up, from their re-union 'Unledded' tour in 1995.
I can remember, when I first played it... we were living in a place, a farmhouse in Devon, At the time. It sounded sooooo much better, than the various Zeppelin boots, that I had, at that time !! I still have the tape - but, I couldn't turn down the price, when it was offered to me.... it pays to have friends, at record fairs !! The tracks are :
CD 1
1) Opening
2) Immigrant Song Intro/The Wanton Song
3) Black Dog Intro/Bring It On Home
4) Celebration Day
5) Thank You
6) Dancing Days
7) Shake My Tree
8) Lullaby
9) No Quarter
10) Wonderful One
11) Hey, Hey What Can I Do
12) Gallows Pole
13) Hurdy Gurdy Intro/Nobodies Fault But Mine
CD 2
1) The Song Remains The Same
2) Since I've Been Loving You
3) Friends
4) Calling You
5) Four Sticks
6) In The Evening
7) Black Dog
8) Kashmir....
Unfortunately, on this tape - 'Kashmir' fades out, as the tape breaks down..... but, it's better than nothing !! I've played it thru' - a little earlier - well good !! As always - don't buy bootlegs - buy the official releases !!
As for the Roky Erickson Cd..... well, I now have 2 copies, but..... what the heck !! It's not the first thing, that I've doubled up on.... I'll see if anybody else want a copy, if not - well ?!
Right - I must go !! It's moving on, time wise & I've a few things to do.... even if only a few of them are nothing much. I am trying to watch Season 5 of 'Game Of Thrones' - again !! Every time, that I put it on the TV, I see something new.
So - I thank you, for logging in & reading my words... until next time......
Bye Bye
