Still can't close my eyes
I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights 90s

Oh Midge that’s a rainy one too Travis - Why does it always rain on me? Couldn’t be more apt!

midgebabe · 20/01/2021 20:36

Well done honey

I could sing it to myself but took a huge effort to work out who itv was by!

Honeyroar · 20/01/2021 20:43

They used it on a BA training course many years ago, so it’s burned on my brain!

MNerGoneRogue · 20/01/2021 20:48

she’s being nice

glares a glare of pure ice in midge’s direction. How very dare you

midgebabe · 20/01/2021 20:50

Phew, I was worried for a while!

MNerGoneRogue · 20/01/2021 20:53

impossibly icy glare inexplicably intensifies

midgebabe · 20/01/2021 20:58

Thanks for the ice blast ... so good for the hot flushes

MNerGoneRogue · 20/01/2021 21:01

Ah yes, midge. We all hear you with that one

quietly adds a few of the points I’ve just swiped off midge back onto the spreadsheet

NeedToKnow101 · 20/01/2021 21:22

Rogue is running scared.

midgebabe · 20/01/2021 21:24

Ah, unusual exercise? Is that what s made her behaviour so erratic ?

Is give you some chocolate but I seen to have misplaced it

Honeyroar · 20/01/2021 21:24

Oh Rogue that icy glare has just turned our torrential rain to snow! Can you pack it in. (am absolutely gob smacked it can actually snow on top of the rivers of water everywhere. What next!)

Honeyroar · 20/01/2021 21:39

I’ve just seen a post on Facebook- Kate Bush’s Wuthering Heights was released 43 years ago today! 43 years! Feeling old! Perhaps she could re release it as Wobbling Heights in celebration.

Morning all. Everyone safe and dry?

NeedToKnow101 · 21/01/2021 07:58

Morning Rogue! Clear skies in London. Hope everyone OK and not impacted badly by the rain.

rickydemus · 21/01/2021 07:58

its an old song, but the lyrics are so appropriate for the present times
HE AIN'T HEAVY, by The Hollies

Honeyroar · 21/01/2021 09:26

Hello Rickydemus. Which one was the Heavies? I didn’t notice it.

Morning all. All is fine here. It snowed on top of all the rain last night, but couldn’t stick on the roads as they’re like rivers. So now it’s just all a cold, wet mess! How long until April??

rickydemus · 21/01/2021 09:47

Not sure what you mean by which one was the heavies?

CoffeeBeansGalore · 21/01/2021 10:12

Morning all

Hope no one has floated away. Anyone tethered the ladder? Hate to lose Pantry & Needtk.

Hello @rickydemus I think Honey was saying she didn't notice any lyrics posted by The Hollies?

Morning 🙂

Hello @rickydemus

What we are doing is posting a couple of lines of song lyrics for others to guess so if you wanted to use 'he ain't heavy' you would put up a couple of lines of the song and the decade for others to guess .

I agree with you though, lovely lyrics and very apt for present times .

CoffeeBeansGalore · 21/01/2021 10:43

Take him by the hand
Make him understand
The world on you depends
Our life will never end
