Has it gone yet...?
Bloody hell, we're going to have to disinfect the Grey Room again (it was bad enough last time Dean made that broad bean & brussels sprout curry)
Oh and James - if you're referring to Pallas's 'The Dreams Of Men' album, I know exactly where it is...
...in my car's CD player

Oops, it it is Fairport... I should know that, I've seen them live. Rush aren't really prog though, Jim and a lot of Zappa isn't either.

What, with an Avril Lavigne signature? Don't make me laugh! Too late.
Now move on quietly, there's nothing to see here...

Yeah, if we overlook the Avril sig, yeah, I'm old at heart. Come on, I barely leave the house, surely that has aged me enough that I'm feeling positively old.

Hmmm -
Go away & read this, from cover to cover:
Then make an appointment for a formal interview on the finer points of sheds, herbaceous borders & where the young go wrong...
Only then will a decision as to your future in this establishment be reached (you'll be contacted by a mutually acceptable go-between...)

That's absolutely brilliant!  Except you got my features completely incorrect. I never had that interview... *shhh, keep quiet, they may not have realised! They are old after all, their memory is going. They cannot even remember if they locked the shed door last night or not... and is that wood preservative on the greenhouse?*

Fellow Greys:
As you know, there has been a recent infestation of (deep breath) a teenager (hawk, spit) in here; moreover, one who describes himself as "old at heart". As and when he has read the prescribed text above, and applied to be interviewed re his possible future here, I ask that the following be taken into consideration:

Is this the sort of person we want here (excepting perhaps for menial cleaning duies)?
