Oh ok then, Elisabeth Fraser always blew me away. Y

Dean Martin, Frankie et al knew how to sing a song.

For me though i don't think watching a bunch of monks sing vespers in a tiny monastery in the middle of the desert near Zaragoza will ever be topped as a vocal musical experience. Extraordinarily beautiful!!

That's made my day that HonaloochieB likes me lots! :D And you bought me champagne.


Cousin is not one for fibbing. I can only imagine that Mr Stewart had maybe had some bad/sad news, or had just become (or already is) very deaf, or had just seen his credit card bill from his daughter's latest shopping spree on Rodeo Drive, or something, to make him ignore the advances of my cousin.

PR - I think Sir Roderick of Stewart could have been in the hospital for cancer. He had some cancerous cells removed from his throat a few years back. Normally he is charm personified and man who enjoys a sense of humour and little drinkypoo but don't expect him to get 'em in as he is tight as two coats of paint - so I'm told.


Anyways - Aretha Franklin, the Queen of Soul has a throat and a half. If you're not moved when this lady sings you're clinically dead.

That may well be the reason PR, but I suggest next time you meet up with your cousin, you relate the story back to him and give him a Larry David close-eyeball scrutinisation. One flinch and and wave the printed copy of this correspondece in his face.

If you're feeling so inclined, throw in a 'J'Accuse' and spit at his feet.

The Christmas gathering might be awkward, but what the hey.


And of course PR, to like? What's not to?


Geddoutahere!

I hadn't! Thank you so much for citing it - I could only find a crappy recording on YouTube, but brought tears to my eyes. The song is more of a showcase for Jessye Norman's wonderful richness (love her too) but they both shine.

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
