LAM said:can't get that rift out of my head now
Oh flip !!! You've reminded me of when I recorded a "Shirley Bassey at the BBC" show recently, just out of curiosity - and got a distinctive riff in my head - they call it an "ear worm" nowadays, I believe, it took days to clear - and now it's back
I'd better have a nap.
IMAGICAT
Yesnthey are and I usually have one going.... thankfully they change almost daily. Today's is now by Deep Purple hahahaha!
Sorry Scylla.... But that is hilarious! Hope it doesn't last days!
Understand that 33 is just finishing his lyrics to 'Silt in the Water'
Have a good nap!

There was a HUGE headless fish delivery for Maya at 18:24
I'd imagine it was blood from the fish on B33's left leg
Maya is looking incredibly well. I hope you are feeling much better too, Karen

Thank you Sandra for the confirmation of the fish delivery! Thank goodness it was well needed! Maya been calling for nearly two days but looking at the size of that whopper should sort the hunger pains out :-)
Assume this weather is proving challenging for fishing!
A pleasure, LAM.
Yes, I'd imagine fishing has been quite difficult for B33 but the size of that fish was fabulous!
My goodness, that was some whopper of a fish, that should fill her up for a good while now.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Afternoon All.
At least an early fish today but Maya seemed full from yesterday's whopper!

Sorry, I forgot to check MB yesterday but have read that B33 delivered a large, whole trout to Maya at 18:47
Fab news from ROP this afternoon (I have also posted this on the ROP 2024 thread)
It’s just great to hear of youngsters doing well. Thanks Sandra.
