  1. Poohbear. My mum always used to wonder why no TV characters ever needed the loo. Were they all constipated or something? Considering in the Sixties we only had two grainy black and white channels, there was some quite quality stuff. Remember Have Gun Will Travel, and Boots and Saddles. The Range Rider. And that's just the westerns. Emergency Ward 10 ???!!! And the very corny special effects (or lack of them) on Quatermass. I can't believe my mum used to watch that hiding behind the settee.

  2. Now come on folks. What is crap and what is good? Remember the saying about one man's meat? Most of it must be a matter of opinion. I love the Beatles and have on my PC just about everything they did. But not everyone likes this. I think a lot of modern music is crap. But my grandkids don't. I like Rock'n Roll and most of the popular bands of the sixties, also Motown. My work mate is into Jazz. My Dad loved the Dance Bands, but if he heard the Rolling Stones his comments were unrepeatable. That is what music is about. It is something we enjoy.

  3. A lot of your stuff Compo I grow anyway. I have Foxgloves, London Pride (a form of Saxifraga), and Ox-eye daisies and Swan River Daisies growing in my garden. Also Aquilegia which the birds kindly plant for me. I have grown loads of bedding plants in containers although the black fly seem to love my Nasturtiums.

  4. So sorry to hear about this Echo. My love for horses means that I always slow down and give them space. Unfortunately there are many who don't. If and when your son gets somewhere better to work, this employer needs exposing. I am pretty sure that bullying in the workplace is illegal.
