@Tanster1402 Why did I not know about this? It seems such a perfectly natural thing to do. I wonder if they all get together afterwards in the baaaaaaaaah?

[DrToppleOppleOv And The Theatre Of Radical Thought @drtoppleoppleov]

Yes.

@JamSpongeMusic Oddly enough I thought exactly the same. @Guy_Garvey

I'm pleased to share an old composition, originating in Kent in 2009/2010 with my comrades in Mechromantix, newly orchestrated by Jam Sponge. The Wicker Man is part of an ongoing concept, The White Bridge.

In a bid to be sociable I stood under this tree wearing my hooded cloak and with my staff supporting me, and with my thin, rasping voice I called to passers-by "I see you! Come and speak with me!". I had fish finger sandwiches available but everyone just hurried away.

Merry Christmas everyone.

Of all the players to disappear within the depths of this Bordeaux stadium, it had to be Harry Potter! 😂

Fortunately, the @LeicesterTigers wing appears unscathed.

@Tanster1402 Good evening.

As per a previous Tweet, I have converted a hot air balloon basket into a water-going craft and attempted to launch it from a beach near Herne Bay but was told to "bugger off" by some officious person. "The RNLI have enough to do as it is", apparently.

I've taken a 12-month lease on a berth not far from Grove Ferry for the houseboat I haven't bought and can't find. As my aunt always said, plan ahead. If you work in surround sound engineering, pan ahead.

Perhaps it's National Jelly Day.

[DrToppleOppleOv And The Theatre Of Radical Thought @drtoppleoppleov]

I've spent the day making houseboat-shaped jelly out of sheer frustration at being unable to find a real houseboat. It's an approach known to caterer-psychologists as Goal Failure Modelling. It doesn't work but I like jelly.

An interesting day skimming the tidal flats of Sandwich Bay/Pegwell Bay. No trouble from the coastguard this time as I deliberately kept my altitude and speed to a modest level.

@Tanster1402 @HamillHimself Thank you! I'm of an age now where clothes shopping consists of a search for cardigans and jeans that come up to my ribs and which have a razor-sharp crease. #oldfart
