Neither, I don't think. I'll check later - or if anyone has a New Hymnbook, it's the Kyrie in the back of that one.

Sorry - forgot! And today's I Was Glad was awful, I thought. Happy Allocution to all!

PS. If anyone knows where I can get a black bedsheet for a Nazgul costume...

And Matt, I still want the Bombadillic Photo! Pleeeeease?

Wasn't he in 'Magic Roundabout' ?

I tried to suggest dying it earlier but my post wouldn't upload.

I don't know if you have access to a washing machine, but that is the easiest way to do it.

Robert dyas and Woolworths both sell dye.

What do you mean, John? And this isn't me being funny, this is me being confused. Perhaps naïve would be more accurate, knowing you.

Perhaps a Primarch-type shop would sell them?

I just had a very vivid flash-back to my teen years. A certain lady and black satin sheets.

Need I say more ?

Josh, the Magic Roundabout was a children's series which started in the sixties (it was French, but the English stories were made up by Emma Thompson's dad to fit the pictures). Nigel Planer did a more recent run. It was so bizarre that many "hippy/pot" legends live on among those of us of a certain age <<sigh>>. The characters were as follows...

Brian: Snail
Dougal: Shaggy Dog
Dylan: Spacey Rabbit
Ermintrude: Pink Cow
Florence: Girl
Mr McHenry: Gardener
Zebedee: Bouncing Character with a large spring for legs

Poor Josh. Now he's going to think that there was something about black satin sheets in the Magic Roundabout!
There may have been a certain level of innuendo (not as bad as Pugwash...) but I don't think black satin sheets came into it. It was too wholesome for that!
My vision of JR's remark had more to do with James Bond.....

B'doyng, b'doyng ...... (Zebedee.....)

There was also a nautical character named "Seaman Staines". Say it slowly and forget about the spelling. That was explained to me a couple of years ago by my daughter, who was laughing so much at her ignorant and naive parent that she was almost in tears. It seems that the producer must have twigged because the sailor made only a few appearances.

Along with Master Bates, if memory serves.

Ah ! Capt. Pugwash !

All of which reminds me... Remember Rainbow?

Apologies to the truly faint-hearted, but be warned, this is, erm, quite rude.

It's an absolute classic, Phil.

Glad to see it's found its way to You Tube !

Noner odf which helps Josh, but this may
