Rare Eddie99 Posted November 6, 2020 #7902 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Tough on you Brian. Sorry Sad to read that Geoffrey Palmer has died. I’m amazed to see he was 93 though. Some of the ages of ‘celebrities’ are surprising. Some you think were decades older than yourself turn out to be only 6 or 7 years older; others who you’ve assumed to have died years ago are still thriving. Tommy Steele? Goodness, he must be 150. No - ‘only’ 83 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-54838209 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry your plans are up in the air again bro. No-one can make any definite plans at the moment, as things seem to change so quickly. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that you can at least be home in time for Christmas. Stay safe. Sis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A whole lot of practice, a great band of musicians, a back catalogue of brilliant songs that people want to hear, some completely reworked from the originals (how brave was it to completely rework ‘Born in the USA a few years ago?), personality and talent. Hopefully come 2021 or 2022, he will play in UK once again. Yet apparently he has never had a UK number one hit single.

You're not wrong about the cold - went for a walk by the Bistro on the Beach (thought of you - is your hut in the vicinity?) for a blow and got rather more than we expected - blowing a hoolie and bitterly cold! Ok walking one way but a challenge walking back. Sea was exciting though - huge waves. That was the day the cruise ships disappeared (back now.). Have a safe journey back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adawn47 Posted November 7, 2020 #7917 Share Posted November 7, 2020 It's a horribly cold, damp, dark, dreary, misty morning here, but at least I can see the greenhouse today. It was so foggy yesterday I could only see halfway down the garden. The perfect day for sitting snuggly in my warm cave chatting to CC friends and/or reading. Hibernation has come early for me this year🐻 Avril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, when he was young he got used to playing multiple (6-8) 30 minute sets in a single evening which he says helped him train his vocal chords to be able to maintain his voice. He also says he is lucky but no doubt hard work and effort has played a big part in that. Great to know there's some fellow fans on here by the way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare DamianG Posted November 7, 2020 #7921 Share Posted November 7, 2020 (edited) I was out before 8am to drop off some things for my dad (who's in hospital) then pick up a bit of shopping. Yesterday the roads seemed just as busy as usual but I had a more enjoyable round trip as things were much quieter everywhere and it was quite eerie in the fog. It's Christmas in M&S as well by the way... Edited November 7, 2020 by DamianG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another M&S Christmas delight shown on google news this morning. A cross between yum-yums and a doughnut, decorated with red icing and a black santa belt. They decided to call them Santa's Yumnuts.

Rare Presto2 Posted November 7, 2020 #7925 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Morning everyone. A beautiful day here in Stoke on Trent 🙂 Shame we are stuck in but an excuse to be lazy today. Have just read the so many lovely posts on here from Thursday - lovely to read about Andy's dad. Lovely tribute. My late mum's brithday was the 25th Oct and late dad's the 9th Nov so a 'time to remember' with me as well. Anyway, a friend sent me this this morning - love it. Christmas 2020 with Del Boy and Grandad 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
