Fire Brigade's advice to stay put during the Grenfell fire ran counter to basic common sense - which it obviously did.

Will Labour set fire to another block of flats during this election campaign, I wonder? After all, it worked well for them last time.

Yes. You left out the bit about how Jeremy Corbyn is definitely going to set fire to a tower block full of brown people in the next few weeks for some reason, though.

I get quite nostalgic when I hear of the Grenfell Tower fire. Which isn't something many people can say.

I was driving home from Cornwall. it was a beautiful day, traffic conditions were fine, the road was dry, I was listening to 'Frenchman's Creek' and planning a barbecue for the evening. What a delightful day it was. :sigh:

I take it you cancelled the barbecue on grounds of insensitivity?

It really didn't penetrate my consciousness - I heard about it on the news but my mind and heart were so filled with the dashing Jean-Benoit and the beastliness of Rockingham that I simply couldn't process grubby current affairs.

No. You may keep your Russians. As novelists go, there is no one to touch Daphne.

She's underrated and out of fashion, certainly. However, I think you may be overstating matters somewhat.

On another note, your nostalgic memory sounded like a very English, middle-aged version of the first verse of Tom Petty's 'Running Down A Dream'.

Tom Petty - now there's underrated.

That's a decent call, actually.

I've always found Tom Petty a little bit like greg mitchell's description of lesbian porn; like Wiltord, it goes round and round in circles and nothing really happens. I always want Tom's song to get on with it and do something!

Meanwhile, I was picturing myself more in a Jungleland scenario.

The Rangers had a homecoming in Harlem late last night
And the Magic Rat drove his sleek machine
Over the Jersey state line
Barefoot girl sitting on the hood of a Dodge
Drinking warm beer in the soft summer rain
The Rat pulls into town rolls up his pants
Together they take a stab at romance
And disappear down Flamingo Lane

Did you say you were moving out east, b? Norfolk, is it? I like it out there. Big skies.
