The Singing Detective
Nov. 8th, 2021 12:56 amOne of the best TV dramas from the past - written by Dennis Potter - was The Singing Detective.
Here is the original BBC trailer for their series -
In between the Wednesday Matinee and Off the Record, a trailer for the new Dennis Potter series which went out the following week and soon became regarded as one of the finest TV dramas of the era.
Please dismiss the awful American film version of it!

Today's Finds
Nov. 8th, 2021 10:03 pmThe Asian lunch in our common room was spectacular and afterward, I felt so full I really needed to walk to town. Had a strong IPA at my local and then popped next door to the charity shop and picked up three vinyl LPs for one pound and fifty pence.
These are the finds -

The Waterstone Asian Food Festival
Nov. 8th, 2021 10:32 pmSo yesterday I mentioned that we were having an Asian food fest in the common room. This was due to the work and effort of my neighbor Anna who lives above me.

Thus is Anna, on the right of the picture.
They did a range of Asian foods from sweet and sour to mushroom curry. I filled my plate with a bit of each and loads of veg rice.

I took quite a few pics so the rest are under the cut.
( More pics here )
I definitely needed a walk after all that food lol!
Thank you ladies for a great food day!

Oh, I walked into town and had a strong IPA to digest that food!
