Almost time for the air to start cooling down. It is going to be a sticky night! It is hot too.

I hope everyone is happy and cooked right through. What better way to cool down than to get those hobby jobs done. Let your worries fade away and the music will take you away from it all.

@sundancer – I don’t really need to use a ‘search engine’ being almost god-like. However, I know what you mean…”Goggling” something has become a statement. As if that automatically makes it correct. The same with Kakipedia! Oh, that is always right too. The lazy persons education.

When I was at school the teachers will always drill into you that “…when you grow-up you won’t have a calculator in your pocket”. True. The first calculator I got was almost the size of a house-brick. It was 1975.

@robert – roger that! I have a whole shelf of stuff that need ‘re-homing’ of it will be getting chucked-out. I like the ‘Primordial’ cover. Sheffield cemetery has a few of them on their gates. Nice garden. Ours is coming on nice too. We even have a few Frogs. Cat’s have been chasing them! Heather spends most of her summer holidays out there from dawn to dusk.

Oh, did BoW become OTT while I was away? You have to tell me these things.

@seldon9 – YOU TOO! How come you didn’t dive right back in? 100pts.

@tuffyears – Hammerite. That is what the jakkies drink up in Glasgow. Isn’t that for outdoor pipes? I have a feeling it might obscure some of the detail if you don’t thin it down a bit. However, I know very little about painting so I could be wrong.

@woldenspoons – my wife watches it, but I sort of absorbed it throught the right ear. My doctor looks like Jack Whitehall. He even wears the trousers. I mentioned it to one of the receptionists and he pissed himself. That said, he is a very good doctor.

Did you notice the ‘motto’ in her office?

I am more of a ‘Still Game’ watcher. That rules, but it is Scottish. I could quote most of ‘Bad Education’ from the amount of times I have listened to it. I have watched it too. The history lessons rule. 50pts.

That was going to be my next question: “how did it go?” Did you get a good feeling?

I like the big guy on the far right…nice. 20pts. I have been putting stuff together for my garage. It has now become ‘garages’ since I found another unit. Clearing up is great…just like xmas!

Avril rules. Seen her live twice. Bloody amazing. 50pts. I get about you know. When Eve was younger, 10-16, she went through the enevitable ‘Goth’ phase and we went to see all sorts of bands. Some fucking aweful (Avenged Sevenfold and MCR the 2nd time) and some really outstanding, like AL, Evenescence, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and Paramore. I took her to see other bands too…the Damned, Gary Numan, Theater of Tragedy and of coure, All About Eve as she is named after them.

My son, Jamie, has other tastes. We went to see Rush! Oh, wow. 1000pts. He loves Numan and his first gig at 12 was Steel Panther. Eve bought us tickets to a film premier by Thomas Dolby who I have admired since I was 15. I have always wanted to meet him as I had a promise to keep. My second girlfriend and I used to listen to his first album ‘The Golden Age of Wireless’ and the very first time we did it we were listening to it.

She made me promise if I ever met mr. Dolby that I would thank him of the album. I did whisper it in his ear and thanked him.

Pink? Not really me, but the song ‘Who Knew’ is one of my favourite modern songs. Very deep. 50pts.

As for Blur…you might be heading down the wrong path, my child. I did mention my secret identity might break out!Try this book…

I do like the song, but it is a bit ‘wet’ for me. Too “art school” for me. Try ‘Throbbing Gristle’ or ‘Cabaret Voltaire’. Even thought they were very art school, early Human League rules.

@cpauls1 – me too! I could hump all day and not break a sweat. I cannot run short distances quickly, but stick 70lbs on my back and I am as happy as a pig in glabour. The good old days. However, they are not allowed to do it anymore. UK recruits have died so they are more merciful. Some days I remember being like an ant under a magnifiying glass. I have watched the Sun take turns to keep following me behind stuff! However, here you can still breath. It is not like the sand.

Barn cats are ultra savage. I have known a few. My Lillie was a feral rescue and became a lovely ‘house’ cat. I saw her with a bird outside one morning and it was not pretty. I know why cat’s have that glint in their eyes when they come in.

A good way to get them socialising is to stick in some of your worn clothes. Gets them accustomed to the smell.

Those torso’s are really nice. I love the one with the Iron Cross! 20pts.

Well, you should have enough stowage pretty soon. I have no idea how long it takes to get to you. The girl in the PO hadn’t even heard of Manitoba. In her defense she is just a local and only about 22 years old. She does have three children though!

I have been sitting inside to avoid the MCE ruining my pale complexion. It is hot enough to burn a man’s conscience today. Your monster would like awesome if it was illuminated! I have a bit of Infinity styled terrain that has little LED’s in it…like a tall computer core. I should finish that!

@crazyredcoat – I agree with @robert. I painted a couple with camo just to not have to paint it black! Loving the medic. 100pts.

@torros – as if you would ever be an intruder here! How are you doing?

@limburger – here it is supposed to be the hottest day of the year. Where…on the fu**ing Sun? I was going the put ‘fucking’, but I thought I better not.
