Loving this light-hearted approach to a further lockdown - your pie sounds a winner when you get to the kitchen my friend.

Ah Andy - I don\'t know what to say about lockdown as I\'ve never really done it. The State of Victoria has lead the way there. So is empathy without knowledge any good? \'Tell you what though: I will gain massively out of your experience if it provides you with the motivation to continue to exhibit the kind of beautiful music you have been showing us.
Stay safe. Dave

You can go to different shops - the ones that are open, that is.
You can start your Ch....card list - you know!
I\'m sure I saw a couple of shops open, that come under \'non-essential\'.

\'As if you see a mosquito
And it lands on your balls,
You have to realise
There must be a way to solve problems
Without using violence.\'

Plenty of material there, Andy - at the absurdity of this life and especially the folly of large numbers of the people occupying it.
Get a good giggle going.
You can do it.

Andy - iv\'e lived in North Queensland for a goodly number of years. I know those little beasties quite well. Appropriate attire well secured would seem to be the way to go. Application of mosquito repellent in this instance not recommended.
There should always be solutions whether testicular or international.

PS Cool Conductor - great.

She Was Back Once More.
L. B. Mek said:
wonderful,
that you can see the tint of Sunshine through the storms of life is all the armour you need and the music you played with Joyce, will ever reside within each pulse of life,
how proud she must be of you Andy,
stay strong my friend: slice onions and let it all out, then garnish your steak and celebrate, as she too gets to share within each breath you squeeze from life...

Doggerel Dave said:
Andy - It\'s not often the the theme of love in poetry gets to me (although I will be doing one of my own sometime soon). The ache - the wish to go back to that moment is one I certainly have experienced. By now you must have realised, I can\'t do the spirit thing - however the memory is warm and whole and I return to it whenever I need comfort.
Take care, Dave

ANGELA HERE ~ Good Evening Uncle Andy. Thanks for showcasing OSCAR ! Every time I hear & watch HIM I learn a little more about the *Interpretation of Cool Jazz on a real PIANO !* AMEN. Brians DAD now has a Lowery Organ (same as they use in the Church) so He has given us his Rushworth & Drapers (Liverpool) Upright Grand ! Once tuned it stays tuned for ten Years ! Brian & I are fortunate to be in secure Jobs & being retired you can set Your Own Agenda ! WE support the Church *Needy* Support Group and the Coop Foodbank. WE feel perhaps that COOP Food Vouchers are the most sensible CMAS Gift this Year or COOP Hampers ? COVID 19 can knock us down - BUT - it will never knock us OUT ~ AMEN !
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours

Yeh you folks aint the only ones - limericks make me itchy too:
In a world of over population
Perhaps thinning is not a bad notion?
So long as it’s not me
I’ll end it my way you see
And I’ll never cause any commotion.
My addition to the low mood. How low can we go?

I\'m also an Autumn guy, though admittedly more \'Fall\' and early Winter than late Summer, it\'s that inevitably melancholic mood they help cultivate

On my TV are MP\'s imploring
Stay at home even if it\'s quite boring
but remaining erect
whilst in self protect
is my failure, I\'m often found snoring
So bored with the pandemic break
Goldie is off to his lake
it\'s my meditation
is his explanation
then swiftly nips home for some cake
Or perhaps on another day
sipping coffee in a favourite cafe
where he\'ll knock one off briskly
a poem quite risky
just to hear what his subject will say
When i see limericks i just can\'t help but start composing

I got in a muddle. The sheet hit the fan, and got all tangled up in it! Doh!
It\'s tricky, and difficult for traders of \'non-essential\' goods and services. Hopefully they can survive, with online business, etc. But one can\'t get a virtual haircut, for example. Get that pudding basin on yer head, and get someone to cut round it. In the hair-style of 1066?

Springtime is my favourite i admit but autumn has it golden beauty and sorrow as the natural world prepares for winters hardship.
All the more poignant to observe the final beauties of 2020 as we head into who knows what this year.
