Every now and again, you'll get a group of do-gooding yoghurt knitters coming in to 'entertain the oldies'; one of them will bring a guitar & no doubt regale us with a version (learned the day before) of 'The Revealing Science Of God', only to be interrupted half-way through by the nurse coming round with the drug-trolley...

...see - there are things to look forward to in old age

Could be Jared in a few years time!
 
he was actually interviewed on 'Midlands Today' last night...all credit to him...LOL
 
I loved the way his Jazz drummer son was also interviewed, saying 'he thought he'd have grown out of it by now'...LOL
 
I have to be honest, and as many of you will have gathered, I've been listening to as much Classical music over the past 12 months as I have Prog, and with the number of box sets which arrived over Xmas/ New Year, this indulgence shows no signs of abating...Embarrassed. 
 
I do have to admit though, that I have always had a 'classical' bent... whereas one day, I'll just be old and bent.. with all these aging hippies and rockers, in the nursing home, of which Jim speaks..Wink
Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

which, for ageing hippies/ prog rockers, might take on a slightly different connotation...Ermm

A "heads up" for my fellow shedders and any of your friends who may be regular customers at Tesco
Over the last month I became the victim of a clever scam whilst out shopping.


Simply going out to get some bits and bobs has turned out to be quite traumatic.

Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you! Here's how the scam works:
Two seriously good looking 20 or 21 year old girls come over to your car as you are loading your stuff into the boot.
They both start wiping your windscreen with a rag and Windowlene, with their cleavage almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts.
It is impossible not to look. When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say "No" and instead ask you for a lift to another shopping centre.

You agree and they get in the back seat. On the way, they start having sex with each other.
Then one of them climbs over into the front seat and performs oral sex on you, while the other one steals your wallet.

I had my wallet stolen on December 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, three times just yesterday, and very likely again this upcoming weekend as soon as I can buy some more wallets.

Please pass this message on to all the men you know to warn them about this scam." Wink

Thanks for the warning though I must say that I only do a supermarket shop once a week and any urgent items I walk to my local mini-market. Fortunately I don't use a wallet as I keep most of my notes in my back pockets. Perhaps you ought to think of the same method as it must be costing you a fortune in replacing your wallets.

So just take a cheap wallet with a fiver in it. Sounds like it would be the best fiver you spent in a long while!
