As a result of the This or That thread, I find myself listening to this.

The Rutles - I must be in Love.

That's not fair, I love both and can't choose!! 😨

The Beatles or The Rutles?

Pint - Mint

Stamen-talent

Neither. They hurt too much when they disappear from under you! 😲

Sailboat or motor boat?

Sine - Sing

Quote by Mendalla

She reminds me a bit of someone else but not sure who. Maybe I've just heard other music by her. Wonder if she'll juggle music and acting or go Taylor Momsen's (former TV star who is the lead singer of The Pretty Reckless) route and focus on music.

Forgot to mention, she also co-directs her own videos and writes the songs! I would suggest that she may have been influenced by The Pierces, maybe?

Gyrate-amalgamate

Tact - Tart

With Syrup.

Gravy or sauce?

I have been binge-watching Young Sheldon and thoroughly enjoying it. From there, something strange happened. I discovered the name of the actress who plays Sheldon's friend, Paige. McKenna Grace. Since then, she has popped up in so many places. Today, I watched Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Who is in it? Yep, McKenna Grace. But what's more, at the end, this...

The Haunted House by none other than? You guessed it... McKenna Grace. This is one talented kid!

I love watching the videos by Sina Drums (Sina Döring). Here she is playing both Drums and Bass! She must have been beside herself!

This is her cover of It's My Life by Bon Jovi

Ptarmigan-deranged

Always on a cone. No waste, no washing up!

Ice Cream or Sorbet?

Tank - Tack

Amazing how adding a little metal makes such a difference.

Just found this version of Miserlou...

Nightwish recently announced that they are currently recording their tenth album, due for release in 2024.

Here, then, is their very first single release,

From the 1997 album, Angels Fall First, this is The Carpenter.

Over here in good old Blighty, Tornadoes are a rare thing. We have them occasionally but they only do minor damage. The odd tree, garden sheds, that sort of thing. Having seen those pictures, Gill, I'm never going to complain again about the wind and rain we get here. You're welcome to the heavy stuff!

Mind you, we do suffer from flooding. Probably due to the overpopulation we have here.

Stay safe, everyone,

I only began writing in later life, around ten years ago, quite by accident.

Back in '85, I was detached to Port Stanley in the Falkland Islands for four months. I was a Royal Air Force propulsion engineer. In my spare time, I wrote poetry that was inspired by my surroundings. Back then, there were no personal computers as we have now, and all those poems were handwritten in a notebook.

Sometime after my return, my other half and I had a blazing row and the notebook was destroyed in a fit of rage. The poems were lost forever. I was so angry that I swore no one would do that to me again, and I wrote no more.

Fast-forward to 2013. I 'met' someone online whom I began to converse with. My emails were like micro stories and she liked them so much that she said I should publish them.

That got me thinking, and I found a now-defunct website and began to write short stories there. Those stories were erotic stories but I soon found that it wasn't the 'naughtiness' I enjoyed but the pleasure of writing the background stories. Maybe I could write a real story, I thought. The result was 'The Nurses and the Surgeon', a short story of 5000 words.

Again, it was well received and the bug had well and truly bitten me. It wasn't enough. There had to be more to that story, and so, it became an epic tale of some 390.000 words!

In those ten years, I have written three other novels, a novella, and many short stories and poems, all of which are backed up in so many places and devices that they will never be lost... and one, as you all know, is now published. 😉

Fate - Gate

Dials - Salad

...and still no! Just one letter. No anagrams.

Dame - Game... this one, not the other. 🙄😊

Having dug out the above-mentioned albums, I have found a slight anomaly in my memory banks.

Sacred Heart wasn't released until 1985, which was some nine years after the previously narrated tale!

However, it seems that it must have been Peter Frampton's - Frampton that was the third Album.

So now I am wondering, where did I get Sacred Heart from? 🤔

Anyway, I am listening to it now and finding it awesome. I should have given it more credit way back then.

There are only two songs on the Frampton album that I ever liked. Here is one, Show Me The Way.

Sorry I missed your birthday, Verbs. I haven't been able to be here for a few days. Too many commitments in RL. I'm sure you had a great day, though.
