Top tip. If there is a Scotsman vaulting over you, never look up. Those kilts weren't made for vaulting.

Hogging the red carpet again I see. Your New York triptych was excellent stuff. Ta. (I might be bending the meaning a bit but it was 3 works of art and I like that word. Otherwise substitute your old stalwart 'trifecta'). Saving Iceland 2/3/4 for tomorrow. 

P.S. Any sign of Noggin the Nog (or Nogbad the Bad)?

EDIT: I couldn't stop myself (and I had a big cuppa) - I've read them all, but waiting for the circling round additions.

Just need to get a preemptive 'ta' in as I will be away for a couple of weeks and likely not drooling over Bbop's reports in that time. Rest assured that I will do so when I get back. I do have a bib in case you're wondering.

Albert (sort of)

Definitely a better VC tag line.

Believe!

 I have no idea what you are referring to 

I did listen to this https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0d508t8 a few months ago and his previous series https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0010x7c/episodes/downloads. Spooky stuff.

Did you have named reservations for this event. The medium could Google guests to trawl up some information and weave that into their act?

One Machiavellian step closer to producing Emmylou I hope.

Don't forget to get the hoover in that spot behind the fridge.

Someday Wilco will actually win a Grammy for their actual current music! Probably wishful thinking...

Yes, a few Grammys's for 'Best cardboard box' filling up the mantlepiece now. Meanwhile, was truly gratified that this got a Grammy, though they seem to have invented another new category instead of just giving it the best song of the year award - though Bonnie Raitt's is great and pleasantly surprised it beat some of the more mainstream entries.

LOL. The first coupdl eo series were good.

Have you tried Friday Night Dinner?

50 years ago today. Still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Best part is the lack of celebration on scoring. That's class for you.

There's a repeat on Thursday that works out at about 11am I think for me, so will try for that (work allowing).

Finally got a broadcast that coincided with my timezone. Nice radio voice and interesting choices (apart from the Peaches thing that I had never heard of). Good work.

I shall accept your ta, and issue a pre-emptive ta of my own for when/if you get a chance to tune in…

Thank you, sir. You've been to plenty of shows yourself, so I appreciate the kind words. And there's definite room for improvement, so hopefully it happens again sometime in some form...

Haven't heard it but just the idea that it happened makes me happy, so ta for that.

Did I have a scuffle there? I only remember Parisian teenyboppers using me as pogo stick during Spiders…

Just giving you something to work with now you're in the entertainment business - recollections may vary.

Hope you've prepared some appropriate jingles.

'Don't touch that dial' - as they used to say when dials were a thing. 

Have you read the full terms and conditions?

Since anyone can watch this show for themselves,

But not me, since I am not just anyone.

Partial ta deposit. Rest on full delivery of report.. 

Half way through El Cid. Interrupted by pleasant sofa snoozes. Will finish next weekend.

On a more gritty note: third and final series of Happy Valley.

This was, to my ears, almost a power-poppish tune

This is good to hear. Hopeful for the next album being more upbeat.
