Well, it's still 10.30 am (BST) in the UK. but the Aussies are on another planet. They start at 8.30 pm. Power. Whose power are we talking about? Not Avon's, he's lost the plot somewhere in tha past couple of weeks. Dorian's? Maybe. Soolin's? There are certain fans who'd like to think so, The Seska? With their dwindling population (can you still call it a population when they're down to single figures?) Or...the Sea Devils? Probably. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Sorry I forgot to post the thread, everyone. No real excuse, except that it's been a Bit of a Week, as Travisiana might say, Hope you're all ok and ready to get started/.

Hi Virn, hi Obsidian, I hope you are both well. I’m sipping on an ‘adult’ ice cream soda as we speak. |

And I'm not even going to try using my stupid optical drive this time. That'll teach it to mess me about. Dailymotion it is, folks. With adverts. With everything inside-out. But still with that clever opening vidscreen overlay flypast thingy. That took quite a lot of work, I should think.

I'm starting at the 5 minutes late mark. Just so you know. But I have the adverts to get through, so that makes it fair. Sorry to miss Anne this week. Hope she has a great weekend. STARTING! "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Dicken Ashworth (Gunn Sar) comes from the same place as my father's father's father's etc. Maybe we're related.

The usual domestic hairdryer... Actually, now I think of it, it looks like one of the heating devices used by painters so that they can scrape back paint. Essentially a hairdryer only in boy shades of blerrgh.

My dear husband is trying to get back 'up north' after a week in Brighton. His first train was cancelled. Now he's on one that goes as far as Preston (over 100 miles south of here) but trains north of that have been cancelled because of 'bad weather'. OK, it's raining a bit (again/still) but it's no worse than usual. Guess it's going to be a long day.
