RIP all.
(John observed that Barry Manilow hasn't been looking to well recently either!)
We remain bewildered regarding this adornment of his guitar ...
 |
| Is it something to do with refined tuning? |
Sylvia brought an instrument of exquisite shape ...
 |
| "Please can we play something in D?" |
We recycled our milk bottle tops ...
 |
| Please save the planet by using this facility. |
Then we got on with the proper business of making/sharing/recycling music and song.
Not content with the losses documented above, Sylvia cried out for death!
Angela obliged ...
 |
| Bury me under ... |
 |
| What more reasons do you need to die? |
We engaged the other customary themes.
The weather seemed to be important ...
 |
| Bloody January again! |
 |
| Frost turns cobwebs to stone. |
Paul was observed to be playing his kazoo upside-down ...
 |
| "Ah ..." said Berry. "That's where I've been going wrong!" |
Dogsbody abandoned emotional continence as Les performed ...
Mike sang of an old church bell ...
 |
| ... no longer ringing. |
Roger sang of an outlaw of great notoriety ...
Debbie and John posed a grammatical conundrum ...
2 + 2 = 4
4 + 4 = 8
... and so forth.
Of course, the above is arithmetically correct.
Consider this grammatically, however ...
Should it be 'two and two make four'?
Or should it be 'two and two makes four'?
If that word 'two' is a singular noun, the verb would be 'makes', not 'make'?
On the other hand, there are two twos. It becomes plural, for which the verb becomes 'make'.
Ken, being the authority on all things grammatical and lexicographical, we eagerly await his verdict on this paradox.
Have I just mentioned Ken?
Yes, well, see this www.eastergateplayers.org.uk
Ken will shortly be appearing thus-clad ...
 |
| ... and shaven! |
We went home in the secure knowledge that none of us would need to tell lies about where we had been ...
Now remember ...
We will not be meeting on Friday, 29th January.
All back to normal on Friday, 5th February onwards.
