The reels they offer me are mostly about tanks. And almost always something I already know about them.

for letting us know that, Aristus!

Military?
Storage?
Oxygen?

(I missed the last couple of Friday Night Vodka Buzz posts. This'll make up for one!)

I was a tank crewman in the Army.

I thought everyone knew that.

I don't think I knew that about you.

I'm sure you've told us, but I can't remember. I know you loved it.

I loved being a tanker. I didn’t love being in the Army. So I had to give it up.

I never do (too busy posting here, I guess). I'm glad she gets a kick out of them but there are a few snippets of songs used over and over again on the different videos that I hear in the background and I wish I'd never hear them again because they're grating on the nerves!

In a helium voice?

I mute those or scroll on by

I'm listening to an audiobook on You Tube. I started it over a month ago and it disappeared. I saw it again today when I was looking for something else. I found a note I made where I paused it, picked it up. One more day of resting up.

Enquiring minds want to know!

When I started it, it was called The Body in Jingling Pot. By J.R. Ellis When I was trying to find a copy elsewhere, I learned that it had an alternate title.

It is set in Yorkshire. Jingling Pot is an actual part of the cave system there. I had fun reading about the caves and looking at photographs.

The place where they make pudding?



Enjoy the page-turner, Marthe!

I love listening to the English accents
I also like Silver Age American mysteries. Lots of the old radio shows to hear, with great East Coast American accents

He’s been watching the ones in the UK with the Royal Guards sitting on horseback and the tourists that completely disregard the signs about not touching the horse or the reins, where you can stand etc. Some of those horses are biters and they chomp down on peoples arms or the guard will nudge (kick) folks with the stirrups to move them away-sometimes they shout at the offenders, too. Mr Poo is gobsmacked by the audacity of some people and he’s so tickled when they get what they probably deserve!

Some of the ones from the 1940s or 50s are so much prettier than the ones today that look like lingerie. My wedding gown from 1997 would be considered "modest" today.

Girl does a backflip, guy grips her by the hips mid spin and tosses her up into a hand stand on his hands, amazing! So many interesting things on the internet
