Virtual #38

It could be that I have made a video of this before. I hope I haven't posted it previously. Entirely lost somewhere inside my machinery. Life can be so hard!

Uncle John's Primus (Beresford John Speaks)

 Its not a song ...... YET! 

In fact it's much better than that. Filled with pathos (someone tell me what that means), it's like a high pressured firework. Personal history with a legacy. 

It's a subject ripe for a song. Unfortunately my song writing is at an all time low. Any songs I've tried to write have been spirit lowering dirges to a stolen tune. Certainly not suited to this engineering club. What! What did I say wrong? 

Some time ago Colin was kind enough to explain to me how to do the best possible BLOG post. I didn't understand what he said back in November but I have matured since then and the notes I took have re-appeared, At last I find myself able to understand them. I must have been ill.  Except that is, how to centralise the video. I have dragged its box to fill the screen. Will I regret doing that? Will I be expunged from the club precincts for defiance? For failing to tow the party line? For being 'orrible to Ken - who is, incidentally, a fine fellow, {they have made me say that}, when he doesn't sing..........

 Now let us be serious.
Here's an anthem for all seasons written by Keith Scowcroft with a melody by Derek Gifford ...


... and women may join in too!

Virtual #36

 In comes blurred Ken ...



One has to wonder ...
Is it the camera operator or Ken who has been imbibing?
