Like pensions they quietly shifted the dates by about 3 months.And they have the cheek to say if you can afford to pay, use Oyster. ''Boxxle'' to that as I inch my waypast the Crossrail diversions into the West End... Lucien Freud. Hmmm Just read lots of old comments.MrsE went to Tate in 2002, 156 (many unseen) portraits , and bought me a card of a greyhound which was nice. Not exactly rushing out the door for this one.I do like my Hockney postcards that came free with Radio Times... other magazines are available.Anyway happy birthday young man.

hexem 0 Posted January 9, 2012 Good to hear that youngsters can still get there. I doubt if there was any parental help involved.Hope for Gingerpele yet. Chose the right name, such as Henry Dent-Brockelhurst. Duncan Jones certainly chose a sensible name, as against Benedict Cumberbatch.(That took me a while to type for a start).Hex(Cracking song from TOTP as well ).

Wings of a Sparrow 1,415 Posted January 13, 2012 Speaking of Robert Johnson, I know it''s a bit cheesy but Crossroads (film) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossroads_(1986_film))is a thoroughly enjoyable film inspired by the legendary bluesman. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
