Yes, I'm back. Again. Again. A little housekeeping. Those of you still here, and keeping up, will have noticed all pretence of anonymity has gone. Well, more or less. I cannot be bothered t...
Dignity seems to me to be an odd quality; I wonder if it means different things to different people. Most words do. I suspect we all ant to be accorded our dignity, while at the same time wanting...
**MORE NAVEL GAZING** There was a pall over the Department today; not the usual end of nights lull that you see in weary faces across the country, as people realise the night is at an end, and ...
**WARNING: NAVEL GAZING** Timing, it seems, rules all of our lives. Make of that what you will; be it in a Sliding Doors sort of way, or My Parents Failed At The Rhythm Method sort of way, it's...
So, I've been away; there may be clarification as to why in the future; we'll see. It seems to often be the way that the patients you really like end up with the shitty end of the stick. I saw ...
eclipseArts Circus: Welcome to the first eclipseArts blog entry. : Although eclipseArts have been in the biz for fifteen years, it’s never occurred to us to write a blog before. I mean, compute...

I'm afraid it has all caught up with me. Maybe you do have to hit rock bottom. I think I may have done just that. Whether I can climb back up again... Time will tell. For now, I have been ...

30: Your Favourite Song This Time Last Year. Damned if I can remember. It might have been this. Seriously. Who remembers stuff like this?
http://theknifeman.blogspot.com/2011/04/30-day-song-challenge-30.html
But this was just too much fun to ignore; I've got a lot of time for this guy - Mighty Mike. Check his site, it's (now) in my blogroll...
But is that Marc Bolan, Ronnie Wood and Elton all in the same video? Plus, I reallly love Bowie. And his son's films aren't too shabby, either...
I might have posted this before; I dunno. I can't believe they didn't win...
29: A Song From Your Childhood Define childhood. As a wee nipper, it might have been more Neil Diamond. So; two selections, one inherited from Ma and Pa, and one from my tween years.
Best I can come up with, but a video that speaks redemption, and isn't Redemption Song. Listened to this far too much when revising for my membership (the third time, when I finally passed... so ...

Still can't think of a song that makes me feel guilty; I'm sure there must have been songs playing when I've been up to no good, doing things that I should be ashamed of, that should make me feel...

28: A Song That Makes You Feel Guilty. Nope. Nothing springs to mind. I'll think on it. (I'm scribing this two weeks in advance)
27: A Song You Wish You Could Play Applies to almost all the songs thusfar listed. In fact, I like to be able to play any song. As the old gag goes, I'd give my right arm to be able to play gu...
26: A Song That You Can Play On An Instrument. Cupboard is bare again, I'm afraid. Can't play, for toffee.
25: A Song That Makes You Laugh. Scant pickings. I'll offer two; one a 'proper' song, the other intentionally comedic.
In case you were wondering...
24: A Song You Want Played At Your Funeral Another one that gave me cause to think. Quite fancied the organ version of Can't Always Get What You Want from The Big Chill. If you're confused, go ...
23: A Song You Want Played At Your Wedding. Well... another long list, but this my favourite, right now. (And that doesn't break my no duplicates rule) Not sure I'd get away with it... Imagin...
22: A Song You Listen To When You're Sad. Too many to count, but this is an oldy, one I used to over-lsten to mourning the break-up of a relationship. I can still smell her perfume when I hear ...
21: A Song You Listen To When Happy. Add your own punchline. Happy or sad, this song always cheers me up; another great talent gone too soon.
Another interlude. Typing on my iPhone, so may be shorter than usual. It's awkward, and the events herein upset me. On how things go wrong, and on not knowing. The patient, hypothetical as al...

20: A Song You Listen To When You're Angry Well; no Fooling. I don't really have any of these. Plenty of songs I listen to when I'm Sad; but no angry playlist. I ummed and aahed about choosing s...
