I can't sing at all.
Not even carry a tune. My voice is really flat.

Oddly though, I've been asked to provide voice recordings for 'on hold' messages by a number of different call centres. So it appears I speak in a nice deep tone, but I can sing for toffee.

I've had my curry now. It was shit.

What did you get in the end?

Heartburn!

You've been putting *there there* to good use of late.
Award yourself some sympathy points.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sat 16 Oct 2010, 23:04, Reply)

Duly awarded.

( girlinthehole, Sat 16 Oct 2010, 23:16, Reply)

I had
Crab kofta, Nepali root (with lamb), tarka dhall and the special rice.

Nothing massively wrong with the food, but the delay in getting it pissed me off, meaning no matter how good the food was, my mood meant I wouldn't enjoy it anyway.

Sorry to hear that.
I hate it when that happens. I hope it wasn't too cold either.
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Sat 16 Oct 2010, 22:56, Reply)

No, it wasn't too cold
It was just about an hour late. Which has, in turn, put the mockers on me going to the pub for last orders.

Get over it and move on.
There'll be other better curries.
( girlinthehole, Sat 16 Oct 2010, 23:03, Reply)

I am over it.
I've had 2 bottles of wine.

I'm going to have a few beers now
And maybe a nice mug of hot chocolate before bed.

It's a cracking plan in my mind.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sat 16 Oct 2010, 23:09, Reply)

I have a nice mug of hot chocolate
And I'm thinking I should really wash up the not-quite empty, almost identical mug of tea from this morning before I end up picking up the wrong one...

You're playing a dangerous game there.
Consider that a warning.

Booze and then hot chocolate?
Ew!
( girlinthehole, Sat 16 Oct 2010, 23:18, Reply)

Annoying.
Just drink at home then!

I'm listening to the Carnival of the Animals
It's surprising how much I remember :D
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Sat 16 Oct 2010, 23:07, Reply)

I must confess I'm not familar with Carnival of the Animals.

man, I used to love that
they played a bit of it on 6music the other day, it made me happy

I love Prokofiev in general

Find it on Spotify.
It's excellent. I love Fossiles as when I was younger I wanted to be a percussionist, and I like the clacky sound. And as it references Danse Macabre it reminds me of my bezzie mate who can sing it incredibly well.


This is the only vocal version I can find at short notice. It's not as good as his version in my opinion. Although his voice cracks a couple of times, his voice is very smooth and lovely.

I haven't for Spotify on this laptop
But I found a version on YouTube.

I do know it!
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sat 16 Oct 2010, 23:52, Reply)

I didn't realise it was Danse Macabre for ages
I heard it and thought it was referenced in Fossiles... I like the poem it's sung to.

Err... Me neither?

Ask me a easier question.

Would you rather lick a razor or paper cut your glans?

( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Sun 17 Oct 2010, 0:02, Reply)

I'd lick a razor.
Probably.

I'm sure I've enough dexterity in my tongue to avoid being scarred for life.

I hate paper cuts
and I hate razors. Urrgghghhhhgh

There appears to be a new thread.
I'll go for a smoke and think as to a similar dilemma I can ask you.

I was on the phone to another shop once asking for something
and the guy asked me to hold on. Then another guy came on the line
"have you found it"
"no" he said "the other guy just told me there was a girl on the line with a sexy voice.

I really don't have a sexy voice
