November Composition Challenge - GET WRITING

[christofloffer]

i wont be getting anything in this month. been very lacking in inspiration recently and far from in a state of mind to make music. everything i did try was very dark and i didnt like that. hopefully next month i will be in a better place and more inclined to put the effort in.

Not always easy, but tis good to look ahead...hopefully next month !!

It was the 'Two Ronnies' with the brass band I kept thinking of when making up this months ditty....unfortunately,I'm not clever enough to create that sound.....!!
Also had the help of Mrs J to break up my vocal tone !!
Anyway, I'm in...

Rockfordstone and christofloffer - hang in there guys and hope to hear some tunes from you both when you're ready.

Keep on keeping on lads best wishes. Originally had two songs partly recorded for this but never had time to finish. To get something down I've just done a simple number, having some trouble with a combination of recording, time and instruments at the moment.

Morning all! I'm traveling today but will launch the voting later on this evening.

I'll add on an extra day to compensate. I know, it's often said I'm too generous

What happened to that nice Mr Lurksalot that did such sterling work a short time ago..? I liked him; he had the knack of getting the trains to run on time.

Some of us are British and trains running on time is just not the done thing!

Sorry*


(* Another British thing: say sorry all the time.)

Oh my days , recognition at last , thanks Dad , though I must say we did gave an unfortunate derailment yesterday , Albus, the grandson, had a bridge strike and consequently Annie and Clarabel rolled over onto their backs and Thomas landed on top , what a mess.
Still , a full investigation exonerated the management and we are back on schedule
Well , the trains are at least !!

This gives some slight exoneration to my occasional fantasmes of becoming the Fat Controller..! I have partial qualifications for the post (but control little, in fact..! ). Still no voting up and running, though. AWOL again, le chenapan..?

[lurksalot]

To be honest the days have flown past me aswell this week , I shall pop over to Studio Skol and see if he needs a hand

Blimey, what kind of service is this ?
I always had it down as a Luxury, European leg of the Orient Express adventure.
It seems that post the 'B word', has given us a cute little Noddy train service.
I am glad we 'got out Britain back'.

[lurksalot]

Sodor'm all

[lurksalot]

OK gentry

Voting is GO GO GO

Normal service is resumed

I always see that clapping as mocking and or ironic.

Is this from experience gained over years of your playing before a public, or just a personal trait..? How about the 'glass half-empty' test..? How does your toast fall; jam-side down or not..?

No, I usually post in all sincerity, except when suffixed with a Smiley (Deadpan...). Still, I can see the alternative interpretation, much like the 'two white faces or one black candlestick'. This time it's genuine appreciation for having got the ball rolling (not like that there Skol fellow, skivvying off at the critical moment... ).
Well done, Lurks, old boy; well done.
