We pay 137€ a month for electricity, we don't have gas. Another month and we'll probably not be using the heating, so it should drop down for a few months, until we have to start using the air-conditioning.

That's ridiculous......nearly as much as the car is worth!

Nice, heavy version of this Beatles classic.

Congratulations to Bonnie Raitt for her Grammy.

EARLY WARNING SIGNS OF FASCISM Powerful and continuing nationalism Disdain for human rights Identification of enemies as a unifying cause Rampant sexism Controlled mass media Obsession with national security Religion and government intertwined Corporate power protected Labor power suppressed Disdain for intellectual and the arts Obsession with crime and punishment Rampant cronyism and corruption Pretty much all those boxes ticked.

The biggest problems with that country at the moment are caused by politicians screwing the general population and the swathes of the population who shunned education, enabling those politicians. Aided and abetted by those who have swallowed the "woke" rhetoric. Anyway, I nearly spat my beer out in a pub garden years back when a couple were calling their son over: "Tarquin, Tarqhin, come here, we are leaving"!

Cheers, Pete.

When we were at the top of the main mountain on Tuesday sitting enjoying the view (we went up by cable car) and sipping our vin chaud a lady was being helped off the slopes and lifted into the cable car! Not the best advert for skiing! Anyway, there was no shortage of those willing to risk life and limb!

We went on a couple of snow shoe walks on our few days away in the Cevennes. Bloody hard work, especially in the fresh soft snow!

I went with Saul because BOTM for Dec/Jan having snow in the picture seems appropriate. Sooner him than me though!

Are you talking series or films or both?

I put my back out doing some work in the house yesterday, plus it's freezing and blowing a gale here, so the bike is going to remain tucked away in the garage for the time being. Anyway, I've got to sort my cold weather gear out for next week, as we're going to a ski resort with the group for the week. We're not skiing, but we're hoping to do some snow shoeing, sledging and dog sledding and using the spa at the hotel.

I'll be savage Sid then!

Apparently it was Carl Palmer who did the vocals on Benny The Bouncer!

Greg Lake was the normal vocalist, but I think Keith Emerson did the vocals on this one.

A couple of yellow photos I have. My first Bonneville and my mates CBX that I babysat for him.
