Like I said yesterday on Dark Night Of The Soul (WFMU Drummer), I am glad the local church is doing the (free of charge)deliveries for the elderly & other people at risk. I now have my food supples and the prescription ear medicine (I am so tempted to drink this, 96% alcohol OMG!). I really hate christian political parties (they are really not to my liking here) but I guess this is what most of christians don't really understand, that among other things their religion should be about helping those who need it. So, no complaints here, this local grocery&meds service does not really ask if you are religious or a member (the evangelical lutheran church is actually a so-called religion of the state, like you'll pay church tax if you are member etc.), they simply help.

@5:18 DJ GeorgyGirl: You probably have heard the Beatles outfake Peace of Mind/The Candle Burns? Does not sound too much like The Beatles, more like The Pretty Things at their most mellow. The only Beatles connection is is a remote possibility the said track could have been among Apple demos when they shut the shop.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:23pm

I might check that out. Maybe the library system has it. I'm quite interested in that....time out for backwards guitar....wait...wait...wait...wow it's long.....okay, anyway, English folk revival into its rock thing...very interesting time

I recently read several of Edward St. Aubyn's autobiographical novels about his growing up as part of the monied English class, in the 70s through to today. Known as the Patrick Melrose novels. (There's an excellent 5 part TV production starring the Cumberbatch as Patrick) Princess Margaret appears in a dinner party episode. She comes off rather hideously. It had to have happened.
