Week 8: Ending in tiers
29 November, 2020- Through Lockdown I and Lockdown II (The Revenge), our family have been sitting down at dinner and doing a quiz posted on Twitter by @forwardnotback. Today’s highlight was being reminded of the Mike Flowers Pops cover of Wonderwall.
- I have started listening to the Something Rhymes with Purple podcast whilst making dinner. It’s hosted by Suzie Dent and Gyles Brandreth and it’s pretty light but entertaining fare.
- Gyles has a book out at the moment about learning and reciting poetry, which is something I haven’t done for years, but you can read the first chapter of it on Google Books. Maybe I’ll ask for it for Chrimstas? I remember Gyles B from TV:am and the “Woolly Jumper” days in the Houses of Parliament and certainly didn’t think I’d still be reading and listening to him 30 years later.
- This week has felt like the most 2020 week of all of 2020 so far. Here’s hoping for a bit of Christmas spirit next week.
