Yeah, I did read the bit about not being able to use the name of the artist but since loads of other people seem to be doing it, I assumed the rules had relaxed a bit since 37 pages ago. See the one above which went from "Waterloo Sunset - The Kinks" to "My Generation - The Who".


I'm quite happy to follow the rules of the game, but they seem to keep changing!

Nobody's Child - Hank Snow


A song that could draw tears from a wheelbarrow.


"I'm nobody's child I'm nobody's child I'm like a flower just growing wild

There's no mommy's kisses and no daddy's smiles

Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child


I was slowly passin' an orphan's home one day

And stop there for a moment just to watch the children play

Alone a boy was standin' and when I asked him why

He turned his eyes that couldn't see and he began to cry

People come for children and take them for their own

But they all seem to pass me by and leave me all alone

I know they'd like to take me but when they see that I'm blind

They always take some other child and I'm left behind

I'm nobody's child...


No mother's arms to hold me or soothe me when I cry

Sometimes it gets so lonely here I wish I could die

I walk the streets of heaven where all the blinds can see

And just like for the other kids there'd be a home for me

No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smiles nobody wants me I'm nobody's child"

    • I know everyone is different, and I can see both sides of this, but for what it's worth, my take is that I'd rather risk any ill effects from the jabs - short or long term - than not have them and greatly regret it later if I became seriously ill with flu or Covid. Different scenario I know, but decades ago I  had a rabies scare, and my stress levels were high enough trying to get the required jabs following the bite, goodness knows what they would have been like if I hadn't had a preventative (?) jab  beforehand.
    • Over the last two homes, we have called on the services of Robert Mills as a safe, current, swift and skilled gas and water expert. The work has ranged from installing and setting up a WiFi- operated efficient boiler, to removing and recycling old water tanks, as well as devising and fitting excellently-thought out pipe arrangements, taking into account spacial considerations, electrics, boxing, aesthetics, skirtings and other facets when you are re-developing a house.  He will always consult you before any permanent works are started, e.g. where an external flue is to be situated.  Rob is exceptionally knowledgeable and gives a clear and accurate diagnosis and always provides you with options and strategies for the project, working in a partnership.  Whilst on site, he is a calm, industrious and considerable practitioner, always alerting to any noise, disturbances, or checking access to spaces like the loft and giving fair warning to people in the spaces. He also gives time before turning on and off any water etc, so you can prepare for the short time there is no running water. So even if you are living in the property, he makes sure that there are work-arounds. Robert is knowledgeable about latest techniques, equipment and legislation related to the industry. He also cares about environmental impact. Robert is licensed to provide you with the GasSafe documentation and follow up service options too so there is long term peace of mind and you can build an on-going, reliable relationship with him.  Please do consider him as a local, fair, decent worker.

    • I've never been a big fan of the Royals - I used to think that their severed heads should be hung all along The Mall, but I've softened as I've got older. A slimmed down monarchy would be quite profitable for the UK, and a better option than an elected ceremonial president. Apparently, William has had quite a role in the uncompromising treatment of Andrew & Fergie and Harry & Megan - it reminded me of Michael Corleone's purge of the family's enemies at the end of 'The Godfather'. It was brutal, but at least Michael waited until his father, Don Vito, was dead to secure the future of the family business. William is putting his complications out of the picture now - I'd avoid massages or revolving doors if I was Beatrice or Eugenie. I think I'm developing a sneaking admiration for William.
    • I belong in “ should wear on” especially after bus and hospital visits last time I was up - a month ago and Gita virus which took 3 weeks to leave me.. In future, always in London especially in confined spaces..bus, tube, train etc, will be doing so. In vulnerable cat so can’t afford to get sick as have family responsibilities as well. On that note, only had 3 Covid jabs so far and very reluctant to get more… would like to avoid flu shot as well - only doing that as gotta come up for hosp apts in Jan..  had enough junk been in my body in last year - on that note, and I know it is personal pref/choice would be interested in hearing from other vulnerable as a matter of interest only - not judgement at all….
