A fine write Gold. We have river named \'old River\' not too far from us. Children were enjoying playing in the Ford - closed to traffic as it\'s too large to cross.
How old are ya exactly then? Millions of years old, like me? Since 1066 anyway. heehee.

I can see you like playing with words as much as i do.
Strange how removing a gapbetween two words alters the meaning completely - for unless the gap after the third letter was removed - would you allow a loved one to enter a door with \'Therapist\' written on it?
Bit of an eyeopener.

A clever one Andy! I have often sat in the dark when a problem came up and said \"I can\'t do this, I can\'t do this, I can\'t do this\" and when the light came said \"I can do this\"......... not so impossible........

Quartet for the End of Time.
dusk arising said:
amazing pieces, the first seems painful and gradually entrances with virtuoso playing, parhaps a mockery of the audience. the second short passage panders to the belligerence of nazi power and domination i feel. thirdy emerges a piece of beauty which i would love to hear produced with todays electronic marvelry.... then emerges a most moving piece which must bring the frailty of human existence and emotion to even the hardest of hearts encompassing love, sadness and joy in its virtuosity. writing as i listen, there is an amazing sombre section,did this reach nazi hearts one wonders?
This uncomfortable listening cannot have been composed to be passe and conveys much emotion which surely tells of an empathy between performer and their audience - strange to relate but i dont think this music could have existed without such a thing. gone are any thoughts of trivial musical entertainment here.
Now a chiming piano discordantly tells how times will change unharmoniously, i wonder at the message conveyed here and the sombre truth acknowledged by nazis. As you can see this music says much to me and not knowing how much longer it lasts i will stop writing here. Needless to say very moving and thought provoking. Amazing - thank you.

So interesting Andy..... I tried to like it.... but discordant notes don\'t do it for me..... however here they seem to fit the eerie scene of music in a concentration camp..... off times, off kilter visions of murderous guards softening up for music.....maybe he was trying to tell them something..........

Thank you Goldfinch.
Nature and its beauty can be so intoxicating at times.
Yorkshire Dales - I have never been there.
I love the Lake District and the North East - Hadrian\'s Wall country!
Keep writing

Thanks ANDY ~ Love SMETANA and the video ~ very haunting and out of this World ! Love the painting and DVD\'s I have of ROBERT in All Creatures Great & Small ~ Love Yorkshire ~ Love the Programme ! A great likeness congrats to your Daughter ~ You must be proud !
Thanks for sharing a tender moment and a tender thought. ANGELA is well read (on most subjects) and very intelligent ! She and I talk about everything and anything for hours and hours.
