Me and a few friends went to a very intimate gig a few years back. In 2014 I think it was. End of June time. Down south west somewhere.
Only handful of us in the audience really. An old school artist, at sort of sun-down time.
Outside.
And it was stunning. ❤️
It was Dolly Parton at Glastonbury.

GNU Dolly Parton 💔 A genuinely wonderful human being. This beautiful artefact from the Pratchett household, circa the mid 80s, was known as the ‘Dolly Parton Eggcup.’

NARRATOR: There were not sorting it out satisfactorily.
To be fair to them on this particular issue, they are sorting it out satisfactorily, it seems.

A fuck ton of eggs to use up. And a couple of elderly baananananannans.
Some brioche buns, a banannanana loaf, and a huge omelette for breakfast.
I’ll leave you to parse that sentence for its exact meaning.

Despite having been "loyal" to EE - i.e. they managed to keep on convincing me to give them my money rather than someone else - for more than 20 years, today might be the day I finally ditch them.

Oh the joy I felt when the server at the Rhode Island Diner rocked up, threw open the folding stand & put down a huge tray filled with American gustatorial delights.
The joyyy.
Loaded potato skins with sour cream & barbecue sauce.
Then a full rack of ribs smothered in barbecue sauce with fries.

Very hard to explain musical pitch without using the term octave eventually…..
And then you just have to go with “it sounds the same but higher/lower” and then you realise it’s hard to explain.
