Oh! I was naming the lyric. I don't know what our status is atm. It's nothing too bad weather wise here. Not a nice day, but nothing too grim.

Hope the rest of you are ok.

Didn't debage do a song called to the beat and rhythm oh the night. Is that the one?

MNerGoneRogue · 19/01/2021 18:58

@MNerGoneRogue Working from home on laptop mostly, with the odd call to go in. Kids being taught online, ours also had work packs assembled and sent home before 11th January. Ds(15) has work set online. Work submitted is being checked & assessed. Online "attendance" is being logged both at primary & secondary schools.

This is doing me swede in!

Is the song or the band a man's name?

Do as I say midge, not as I do!

I didn't name the band cos I couldn't think of it. I knew it was Chris Martin. But it's come to me as I'm writing this. Coldplay?
