19 minute tribute made for the fourth centenary of Shakespeare's birth. Taken from BFI/COI Collection Vol 5: Portrait of a People 2-DVD set. If you like Shakespeare, it's probably wonderful. However I've never got past being force-fed far too much of his stuff at school and am still amazed that the world seems stuck in such a time warp of redundant hero worship. But my reaction to the Beatles is similar bored scepticism, so maybe I should just sit quietly in the naughty corner. Footage of a big horse race with lots of stuff but too blurry to do anything with ... with millions of buses being used as grandstands And I learned that hedgehogs can swim |

Good grief Snoopy! We agree on something. The only popular beat combo more overrated than the Beatles is the Rolling Stones. Yawn. |

So our two minds are also as one - from memory - on Marston's Pedigree, Mandelson, Lancia Flavia coupes, and Staffordshire oatcakes. An assorted list ....... Can the boundaries of rapprochement be pushed further with this? |

For some reason the item will not open for me. From the picture, which is overwritten with "not available" or somesuch, I gather it may be a guitar version, which is a step too far for me. I have never really liked the things, especially mains powered ones. Gas or steam is better. |

^ guitar and banjo. It works fine for me but there's another page to try - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJ74ZejIjms . Can't promise you'll like it .... |

Guitar and banjo? Andrés Segovia and George Formby presumably. That page doesn't seem to open either. Nor does Ian's bus stop, and my isp hasn't a clue why. ( btw I do know George played the uke, but a joke's a joke. ) -- Last edit: 2016-09-24 17:51:50 |
