respect to you

in the 1970's eraanyone wanting to take me on at drinking whiskythere was only one winner

I didn't start "smiling" until I'd "consumed" at least 7 shots

Ah, the good old days. May they come again in a better world.

Elektra's calling - she says hi - and supper's ready, so I'm off.

Sleep well tonight!

Please give her my love.

Half a world apart and "IN" our days, I reckon we'd have made a good team Dmitri and taken on all comers


dream well both (later your time of course)

Thanks!

well! nowt out of the ordinary here today

Sunny here, the usual.

we've had sun also, but I wasn't going to do any gardening etc

I don't blame you, enjoy.

We're planning on swimming tomorrow, and then Tuesday, they all want to drive down to Pittsburgh to see an organ.

an organ ? for the church ?

I'm not sure what they want to do with it - the church already has one. This is smaller. But they want me to come along and play it so they can hear if it works.

it must be newer than the one you have ? and smaller could be better, with the "modern" techno in organs etc now

Rick Wakeman had to start somewhere

Okay, the church organ is a pipe organ. It's built into the church.

This is a house organ, and it's at least 30 years old. From what I heard, it sounds like a nice brand of organ, but it won't replace a church organ. Like I said, I'm not sure what it's for - but these elderly folk have to move, and they want to get rid of it.

Besides, they bought it years ago, and *nobody ever learned to play it*. Which I think is really weird...

And who the heck is Rick Wakeman? (Don't give me a Youtube link. Seriously, just don't. )

"Okay, the church organ is a pipe organ. It's built into the church" ERR! I forgot that bit

Rick was the keyboard player with a rock group called YES! he's classed as one of the worlds best keyboard players

you want to listen to one of his albums the 6 wives of Henry 8th

I'll check him out, thanks.

Baron Grim said he had water in his house, but at least they didn't have to climb up on the roof. Gosho seems to be safe, too - at least for now.

Oops! Gotta go eat supper.

Take care, hopefully I'll see you tomorrow!

your country is so vast that it has many weather climates and most don't like mixing at the "borders" and that can cause some massive events storms/heat/drought and all the rest

and El Nino doesn't help every year eitherand THAT'S on a world stage

have a pleasant evening both

Thanks!
