Modern v "Old School" singing in opera I've been going through some videos on the subject. TRying to hear the differences. After a few goes, I think I am beginning to tell the differences. Here is one example....
Mum invited my GF for Christmas! 🙂First time! Usually, my GF spends Christmas with her family in Birmingham but Mum has offered to host her this time! Gonna be a fab Christmas! My brother and his wife and daughter will be there too!
Why are there such bastards about?Just read online about how some arsehead in a car deliberately obstricted an ambulance. What makes anyone even consider doing that? Anyway, the driver got banned from driving for three years. Good. One less stupid weapon off the roads for a...See More »
Toodle pip, see ya, tommoz and all that!I'm off to Westminster to form a new government. Be gone a while. Should be back Monday!
Air Fryers: Yes or No?Both me and my gf are keen cooks but our friends keep telling us we need an air fryer (I would have thought it would have been something for us two to decide, but hey-ho). I've seen them in the shops and online but it looks like an extra bit of...See More »
Great Effort against South Africa boys! Pfnaaar!You couldn't even get your usual saviour, "Rain Stops Play" to make the match last three days! 🤪
Temper, temper!Just had a debate with someone who seems to be very easily triggered. I wondered why I wasn't getting any further replies, then I saw the moron had deleted all my replies! 🤣
Just had my second COVID jabDecided to go a little early and went on Friday. Felt a bit odd on Saturday but otherwise okay. I would recommend having the jabs to my friends....
I've had enough!The subject of blocking has come up a few times lately (I brought it up myself on one occasion). What I mean is this....there are some people on here that, despite that person being a complete numpty, you give chance after chance to them, but despite...See More »
I've been blockedNot for the first time my reply to someone's provocative post has been blocked for no reason, other than the OP didn't like the opposite view. The subject was about religion. If you are going to post something that can get strong feelings about on...See More »
If COVID-19 is brought under control in the next few months as some reports in newspapers say.......should we have a Christmas type celebration when the weather is better? I'm thinking May/June. Because of the unique reason Christmas was cut back on this year, why not a unique summer time (in the northern hemisphere) Christmas holiday? On a...See More »
Come back, fooddisposalunitOne of my favourite SWers is someone who hasn't been around for a while but played the part of a victim of a feeder. He would say stuff like "Untie me from this chair and stop feeding me cake". He would often say he wanted to go out in the open...See More »

Scary Halloween everyoneI normally dress in dark colours loose fitting tos long skirts and dresses and little makeup and no one comments. This morning someone (female) saw me and shouted "Nice costume, pet" Bloody cheek!😉
321 child hating wankers in the British parliamentI don't know why I should be surprised by the number of MPs who voted Not to extend the safety net provision of school meals for children during school holidays. The comments made by those on the tory benches were particularly revolting...and then...See More »
Ooooohhhh! Autumn's here!Just love the cooler crisper air, walking through leaves and snuggling with girlie on the sofa with a bottle of something nice to drink....
I Have Random ThoughtsI've managed to lose the weight I put on at Christmas, during the lockdown. Pubs and bars being shut helped. Not had any alcohol for 5 weeks. Elderly Italian couple who call me "vedovella" because of my dark clothing and plain makeup, have commented...See More »
I Have Random ThoughtsThere are times I really cannot stand people. With Covid 19 on everyone's minds, I.ve heard today 1) Paramedics being targetted by people in "cough attacks", coughing (presumably deliberately) in the faces of the paramedics 2) Nurses having ID ripped...See More »
