A wee radio special on his anniversary :-(
Songs are one thing but the interview is altogether weird

Makes you think, dunnit. There he was, being interviewed, all alive and everything, with thoughts and ideas and beliefs and words and fears and hopes and all that. Next minute, dead, and NONE OF IT MATTERED.

It's a waste of time being alive and we all might as well be dead, that's my considered view.

"So we go inside and we gravely read the stones
All those people, all those lives
Where are they now?
With loves, and hates
And passions just like mine
They were born
And then they lived
And then they died
It seems so unfair
I want to cry"

That's right. You've turned into Morrissey. :hehe:

I prefer Beckett, I think.

"They give birth astride of a grave, the light gleams for an instant, then it's night once more."

"Down in the hole, lingeringly, the gravedigger puts on the forceps."

Does one 'put on' forceps? :-(

The Venerable Bede described life as equivalent to a sparrow flying into a mead hall from the night, being bathed in warmth and light for a brief period and then flying back out into darkness.

Cheery lot, yer Anglo-Saxons.

Only I hear the stones lament them:
deep they delved us, fair they wrought us,
high they builded us;
but they are gone. They are gone.

Oh? Well he looks like a girl, that's for certain.

According to Tolkein he is between 500 and 2,000 years old.I do believe old JRR was on the gear

Well quite r. If I ever found myself in gaol for an extended period and had to consider talking my pleasure in the 'back of beyond' so to speak, I would prefer someone that at least looked like a girl.

Unfortunately Sir C is now a non-smoking, teetotal vegan who wants to live until there is absolutely no reason to be alive at all. :-(

Unless one fears the pit of eternal damnation, of course. Luckily, that's made up.

Haven't had a cigarette in more than two months.

Are you sure it's a chap? You wouldn't want to misgender someone.

[Burney]

I wasn’t sure at first due to the tits and the Joan Armatrading hairdo, but he’s definitely a geezer.
