Vagueness and the Aftermath - A sporadic diary

[RED-DOG]

Feck sake!  How to ruin a good song  ^^^^

Here ya go Chris, ya petal...

Chris Issak. Proper singing that.

Pink? Meh! Not so much.

[RED-DOG]

Reminds me of an Aaron Neville number, but I can't for the life of me remember what it's called.

[Laxie]

To be fair, Pink isn't so bad....

Ugh.  He throws too much vibrato in for my liking. I don't mind natural vibrato, but his sounds forced.

[RED-DOG]

Roy Orbison. Now he could sing.

I remember listening to an interview with er.. Reg Presley of the Troggs I think it was.

Anyway, whoever it was talked about the time when Roy came on for them as a warm up act. When he left the stage the band members turned to Reg and said, "Oh shit! Do we have to follow that?"

I agree, but that's not the same as being good.

And what child of the 70's didn't steal the odd kiss whilst listening to this on the 8 track?

[RED-DOG]

Smoochiest 'last dance' song ever.

I actually DO like him.  Probably because he brings back memories of week-ends at my grandparent's house.

I was too young to appreciate Smokie the first time around, but add a few years and she got there eventually.

God bless you for the A+.

Am trying to write better, take some time to phrase stuff better, but mostly I miss the spot, the harder I try, the more forced it appears.

Am really keen to write a bit of a book, but I have such a limited vocab and range. The idea would be to disappear for 6 or 12 months and really focus on it, I have so much in my head that I want to write about. You would not believe the highs and lows, the variety, the dilemmas I get into. Tomorrow, I am doing something really fantastic, but for job reasons, I cannot discuss it whilst I am still working. Friday, I have a perfect pile of shit to sort. Ditto. So much stuff  I cannot discuss in real time.

Five different folks I am - was - on good terms with fell out with me in the last week, for Sky or blonde reasons. Go figure. Sitting on my little fence of private peace is the hardest thing ever.

Damn you Tom, you made me ramble again.

PS - the supposed book (another on the huge Bucket List) is not intended as a commercial thing, it is just for me, really. Just a weird urge. If I actually put my mind to it, I will do it, you know how obsessed I get.

You must know you got mad writing skillz, Tony!

'Books are like dogs, too, you can trust them. They just sit there, forever, waiting, & you can't offend them.'

But please, when you do write your wonderful book, get some help with the title 'cos this one sucks

'Tom's Tales.'

'A man's love affair with animals, birds, nature, & folk.'

Conjures up a Morris dancing, cardi wearing, Greensleeves singing old weirdo.

My Mom used to play this one a lot when I was little.  I didn't 'get it' then...

Okay, point taken, but that combined with love affair with animals and your only going to appeal to a certain audience...

Na! Sentimental pap.
