It depends on the subject, but generally, paintings. Although, there are wonderful and equally awful representatives of both.

Abstract art or faithful recreation?

My favourite Faroese singer/songwriter, Eivor, has a new album coming out in June, simply entitled, Enn.

If the rest of it is as good as this...

If you enjoy Historical drama, I have just watched an excellent three-parter on Netflix called Gunpowder. It is an excellent dramatisation of the plot to murder King James on 5th November 1605. For those who are unaware of what that is, it is why we celebrate Bonfire Night (not because I was born on the 5th of November, but you can be forgiven for thinking it! 🤣).

Even better, for me at least, it was filmed around the area in which I live. It also features Liv Tyler.

I like hard rock but metal has the edge although Symphonic rather than heavy.

VHS or Betamax? (For those old enough to know the difference 🤭)

Probably not. Having never been well off, I have an aversion to risking what I do have.

WYE Risk your life to help a stranger?

Yeah, I actually heard Air Supply's cover first for some reason and already liked the song but she packs quite a voice. Wish she hadn't been a one hit wonder (though I'm sure she has more out there if I look).

I have, for some time now, been rather ashamed of how many Canadians I am discovering through my interactions with European metal fans. I realize it is not really my fault. Our system is almost biased against metal but, dang, surely there must be markets for them somewhere here.

Jennifer Rush has released several albums over the years. The most recent being 2010, I believe. Although she has an incredible voice, none of the songs she recorded have anything like the impact of The Power of Love.

In the UK, if all we listened to was mainstream radio, we would never hear anything of Metal. It is not even particularly prevalent on the rock stations. I was introduced to Nightwish by a Belgian friend, which led to some wonderful discoveries by browsing YouTube.

McD's if I must but not fond of either. However, I hate BK. Can't even remember why now. Harvey's are my favourite fast food burgers.

Ketchup or gravy on fries?

If your BKs are like ours, they tend to be somewhat unkempt establishments, but I prefer their burgers.

Gravy on everything (Even on Fish and Chips!🤣).

So then, Fish and Chips: On a plate or out of the paper?

Probably not, but never say never.

WYE Buy an album based on hearing just one song?

Some wonderful music has come from Scandinavia. From Finland's neighbour, Norway, came Edward Grieg.

One of my favourite pieces is from the Peer Gynt Suite No.1 Op46. Morning's Mood

So many have covered this song, some incredibly well, but... None have yet improved on the original. Jennifer Rush, The Power of Love.
