Cute is as cute does. It's eternal with the right heart behind it. You've got it in Spades. Bridge reference I've never understood. I'm a bit concerned though about how many of your pals need to be redacted over such a long period. Do I need to inform the MET?

Hopefully I'm going to see him next Friday in Glasgow. Treatment dependent. I can buy life as poetry. And dance. Thanks for sharing.

Nonsense. I believe the phrase is, this is the content I'm here for. Can't wait for the photos of you as an academy award. Roll on June.

Yup. At his best on the pitch it was absolute poetry. Anyway. I must pop off cos I've just put on Bad Day at Black Rock. Forget how good it is from minute one. Spencer superb. Lee Marvin superb and hell of a specimen. And Robert Ryan's trousers are too short. Hope you're feeling less blue V.

Cor. As a younger man obviously. And the talent. Pretty sure there was a tv programme early 70s where he taught us youngsters how to play. Didn't work with me.

Meant to say earlier that there were a lot of girls at school who liked Paul Nicholas. Blonde and smiley. Suddenly occurs, no footballer crushes V? Alan Rix? Liam Brady?

Oh sorry but that made me chuckle out loud.
Not quite sure what to make of the assistant. Kind, helpful, honest? Deeply insulting and thoughtless? Excellent line either way.

Nothing strange about David Essex. Gorgeous. Those eyelashes. Mate had his poster up when a teen. She became quite prominent in her work. Was being interviewed on Radio 4 in a studio with a window. Mid serious point, David walked past and winked at her. She totally lost the plot. Blushed. Stammered.

Music! Music!! Good grief. Rachmaninov's 2nd. I start to well up BEFORE the finale begins. Why? How does he do that? Then I actually cry. Every single time. Yes I'm a soppy date who greets just thinking about scenes from movies, but it's still astonishing.

#OnThisDay, 24 Feb 1968, Jocelyn Bell Burnell - along with her male supervisor and three other men - published a paper confirming the discovery of pulsars. She had built the array, picked up the signal and argued it was not an anomaly.
