I don't have the right hands for it.

You only really need one right hand, K. Maybe that's where you've been going wrong ...

I tried the violin for years, but I could never seem to progress- I was much better at singing. If I had more time, I'd take that up again.

Hi Esiuol, s'OK, Freda's chasing an escaped mouse. How're things ?

Esioul · 24th July 2010, 09:53 PM

Not bad. Sleepy... spent saturday in the lab, may have to go in again tomorrow, undecided. I COULD go to the beach. Or sleep.

Esioul · 26th July 2010, 12:20 PM

Why do my eyes start goign blurry after an hour of computer work... gah.

Esioul · 26th July 2010, 07:47 PM

Wow it's quiet in here, what happened? *pushes aside empty wine bottles and cobwebs*

The Ace · 26th July 2010, 08:16 PM

Picks up a bottle and sniffs it, "Oh dear, I think somebody's been on a bender.

She'll be sleeping it off somewhere." Feeds Tangle, washes his hands and heads for Septimus, "Drink ?"

Esioul · 26th July 2010, 08:24 PM

Is there any drink left? I could do with some brandy, it's cold up north.

The Ace · 26th July 2010, 08:28 PM

"Sorry, to me you're down South," passes the brandy and gets himself an irn bru.

"I blame myself a bit. She gets bored easily and I've banned her from driving tanks."

Esioul · 26th July 2010, 09:07 PM

Anything north of Pterbro' is north to me.

Hi, I'm back. It was practically the end of the "Music and science fiction" exhibition in "La maison d'ailleurs" (the house of elsewhere, or in this case, elsewhen, the science fiction museum in Yverdon les bains)

Masses of sleeves of LP records, containing things like "Telstar" by the Tornadoes, David Bowie, Forbidden Planet soundtrack… And no-one minds if you take photos. Early Moog synthesizers, ondes martinot, theramin.

And in the permanent exhibition, masses of pulps, 25 cents, I'll post some of them when I've compressed the contents of my camera.

Sufficient excuse for going away?
Oh, you hadn't noticed I was away? I see.

Anyway, next week I'm popping back to the untied kingdom (seriously, united? It's obviously a spelling mistake) for a couple of weeks, so my posting might get a bit spotty. Not that it hasn't been very spotty of late, but for different reasons.

The Ace · 26th July 2010, 09:12 PM

Passes tea to Chris, "Not sure I envy you, but it's good to see you again."

chrispenycate · 26th July 2010, 09:15 PM

Bows, and sips; doesn't usually get back until it's cooled down quite a bit more.

My thanks

The Ace · 26th July 2010, 10:54 PM

"Well, look what the cat dragged in."

Freda totters in and collapses on the fireside rug, visibly flinching as Tangle hops onto her head.

The Ace · 27th July 2010, 09:58 PM

Sheesh ! Doesn't anyone come in here anymore ?
