And the answer I’d have given if it were me on the receiving end would have been “yeah, but I’ll still outlive you”.
What a horrible person.
Accidento bizzaro.
Boutros Boutros Ghali.
If I can’t physically go to the place we sit down in front of Google Streetview and go there virtually. It seems to be landmarks that work with her.
This came in handy last summer when we were in Torshavn and I didn’t want to pay over the odds in roaming charges so had my phone switched off.
The coffee bar I’m in is attached to a gym and hotel and at reception there’s an actual video wall made up of flat panels.
Remember video walls? They used to crop up in all kinds of places and they used to scream THE FUTURE!!
The future is now and it’s Morning Live on BBC One larger than life…
And to those who wonder why I do these things; well, Groupie’s not very good with directions on a map.
But different people’s brains work in different ways. This is one thing you learn as a workplace coach.
She’ll be fine tomorrow as visual memory will be in place then.
Groupie’s latest temp contract is at a place she’s never been to so as usual I came out with her to make sure she gets to work on time for her first day.
I’m in an industrial estate in the middle of nowhere. Fortunately there’s some fine coffee options to enjoy before returning to civilisation.
“And now, pissed from Norwich…”
TOTP cheerleader in the 80s…a dream job!
Sounds like the sort of thing Groupie would wear. 👍
Does that glow in the dark? Think my gf would love that.
📍 Glasgow 😊
Get well soon wishes from Zaph & Groupie ❤️🩹
Finalising our booking for fun in Glasgow and Manchester. And what’s Groupie doing? Cheering herself up by singing along to the theme from Prisoner Cell Block H.
I suppose she could get away with pleading insanity…
…well, she has been with me all this time…. #ZaphAndGroupiesSurrealLife
The ever brilliant Mark McMillan (of APFS) has launched a website that should be catnip to TV presentation fans. 182 reconstructed TV clocks!!!

So, going by the advertisements, Instagram thinks I’m a woman and YouTube thinks I’m in Wales.

This explains the issues with Artemis II.
You in another decade.
(Even then I was ticking the #KeepingIt70s box)
Dividend forecast; no claims required.
Fraser Wayne has a nice ring to it.
(Both of them ended up becoming murderers. One died in prison, the other made the mistake of doing his crime after emigrating to the USA, so they executed him)
I remember this time last year when I was shadowing a manager and got to take the team meeting that day. And when some one shouted that I took great pleasure in shouting back “19 November…”
“How do you know that?”
“I’m a bloke, aren’t I? Right, next item…”
😊
The original version. We all know the second, and the third one was called African Queen which did very well where they bless the rains, I’m told.
People of the #KeepingIt70s persuasion may enjoy footage of ITN’s coverage of the February 1974 UK election, which I’ve been dipping into as it was live streamed this afternoon.
”The Nation Decides” (except on this occasion, famously, it couldn’t)

Groupie is lifting the mood considerably by playing this loudly and dancing to it.
Which you can’t see, which is a shame for you 😉

I remember once tweeting that I’d just done half a bottle of red wine having forgotten I’d taken painkillers earlier that evening and said “oh well, if I don’t tweet tomorrow you’ll know I’m dead 😊”
My mentions the next morning were interesting to say the least…
There’s a woman at my work who often makes these.
And not forgetting The Goodies (while proving that Arthur C. Clarke doesn’t exist)
For me, more tv nostalgia and nude people (naturist/fine art 👍 porno 👎) and less politics (of all shades) and hate (from all sources)
And, I reiterate, that’s for ME. I don’t force my philosophy on others and I sure as hell will resist others forcing theirs on me.
