Afloat and adrift, All the essentials, Eye of the Colossus, Fish eye - aye captain, For here Am I sitting in a tin can Far above the world Planet Earth is blue And there's nothing I can do, I'm the urban spaceman baby; here comes the twist-- I don't exist, Messier than you might have thought, Now where was that pin I dropped?
Stunning, worth taking the time to watch all the way through without distraction – nods
Ooooooh Yes, Please!

Viewed as suggested, 24″ widescreen, 18″ from my face, with cans. Quite incredible. Thankyou very much for that, Esme; it really was an experience.

You’re very welcome H, I thought you’d like it. I find it quite mesmerising, and have watched it in total silence too to get more of an authentic experience. I suspect a spot of this –
in the background would raise a smile or two also.

Quite dazzlingly brilliant, and amazing to think he wrote that just to sell fish paste, isn’t it?
Amazed that it didn’t go a bit strange at 4:48 when Herbert wipes the snot from his hooter.
Seriously though, that was sublime, nothing short of sublime. I love watching great conductors at work, and one immediately thinks of Blakey’s oeuvre in the Reg Varney era.

I chose that particular clip knowing it would be very much up your street, so I’m glad I was right. – smiles
Snot, lovely hahahaha.
Not Reg and Blakey, but Jack instead – I saw this and thought it was a nice photograph to put up of Stephen Lewis. He died last year at the age of 88. Many a chuckle gleaned from his comedic gurns and acting.

Long, long ago, when Esme was but a twinkle in the firmament, there existed a TV ad which used The Blue Danube as a musical setting for the ad’s message: “Shippams for tea, for tea, for tea. Shippams for tea, for tea, for tea” – ad nauseam!

Ohhhhhhhh. I see, (not the sea clearly). Yes, esme has been around for over two hundred years, however spent little of it watching telly or curling (with a broom rather than tongs).

“crumpet video” – Hahahahaha. Lovely. Buttery too in parts I reckon – nods.
Everything on the Cloud is exhilarating dear Prospero, so it still fits, if not like a glove, then certainly like a close-fitted snood.

Impossible. But blending snood and bath towel makes a bathnood. Stylish for wearing at the opera house (or licence bureau).

Sudsy is a better descriptor for the neologism ‘bathnude,’ which does have, it should be noted, a certain je ne sais quoi, particularly in the cloud-crumpet industry.
