But - What laughter never left our lips since about, oohh, 1978 - the last proper comedy show on TV that I could trace. Well, a couple since then, but only a couple.

Emotional Art.
dusk arising said:

Yes, the artist/songwriter/poet gives us the materials arranged in a way that we use our life experience to create a meaningful interpretation, a picture if you will. I am learning to do this myself using just enough information to tease my reader into the desired frame of picture making mind.

Yesterday I commented upon Neville\'s ability to do this with regularity, he\'s very good.

II could have written those words Goldfinch. Always I know that a tim of feeling low is just a passing cloud and will make the sunshine all the more enjoyable. The lockdown passing cloud will add such a zest for life with it\'s passing.

Some great re-runs of top gear on tv (and many others) have had me in fits of laughter lately. A great release of shielding monotomy.
