It’s a great song but I think it’s stretching the definition!

I’ve been enjoying the new Iron Maiden album, in particular the closing epic “Empire of the Clouds” about the R101 airship disaster – and thanks to @almost-simon for the link to the Talk Is Jericho interview with […]

Dear Uncle Saucy,
I’m rarely that bothered by buzzword bingo and/or popular tropes. Can I still join in on The Afterword?
Yours pro-actively,

I’m pretty certain that the second one was on Pink Floyd’s The Wall, and the third one is Joni Mitchell. Or possibly David Bowie circa Low.

That’s all very well but that wasn’t the basis of the rejection of the compensation; it was conclusions drawn from seriously flawed data that apparently even senior IPO people admitted in court had raised eyebrows.

Jesus, ‘Sorcerer’ must be terrible then… The Keep is an absolute turd. It’s got a great first act and then turns to mush by the halfway point.
