oooooooooft, that’s a really tough one. could really be any of SOS, when all is said and done, one of us, head over heels. tbh though i reckon their best song is the winner takes it all. just a perfect song, i’ll stick with that.

Pretty good question. I mean I’ve heard better but it’s not bad at all.

hmm who would I choose. First thought is that there are only three seats in my van so three of the passengers would have to be happy in the back. I’ll have my mate DDJ up top with me. He’s not my best mate by any means but he’s a good laugh. I think we might like to hang out with Rory O’Neill so he’s got the second seat. Then maybe set Crosby, Stills and Nash up in the back to sing us sweet harmonies all the way.

EDIT: just realised I’ve put three OAPs in the back of a van for 7 hours. oh well fuck it they were never that good anyway

just would like to make some money I guess, I feel like a child playing at pretending to be a musician.

You’re right though, I need to try and overcome this.

I just found it because I wanted to post in it - weird

Well…

I mean I finished Reni Eddo-Lodge’s book and I was going to read either Green Mars or Pachinko by Min Jin Lee…But I got followed on Twitter by this weirdly endearing husband & wife geek podcast who were going through The Name of the Wind. Which was a book I found about half great and half duff.

Anyhoo, I started listening to the podcast while going through some really boring work and this resulted in me re-reading The Name of the Wind.

So that’s your answer: I’m wasting precious time when I could be reading new books, reading an old book I didn’t think was all that in the first place.

@anon5266188 how do you feel that despite it’s shaky start I have now pushed this thread over the double 00 mark?

I think this thread will go down as an all-time great, I can see it getting upwards of 5k posts in the next three years.

There won’t be a time when it isn’t hovering in the most recent 5 topics on community.drownedinsound.com and we will all know each other better and be a more tight-knit and together online community as a result of this thread.

Internet scholars in 150 year’s time will view it as a landmark moment when the internet finally began to completely replace face-to-face interaction as mankind’s most beneficial method of communication.

Thanks for your question.

@NoahVale Has your office drama (iced coffee drink-gate) dramatically resolved itself yet, or is it all just rumbling on?

@Steved what is your favourite Bergman film?

#204

They’re still at it on the sly

#205

No I haven’t yet. A holiday, a chest infection, meetings and my knee injury have prevented it so far.

Next week, hopefully.

@marckee

What is your opinion on Carly Rae Jepson?

MOUSEBIRD, easily. Only non-standard (in Countdown world) 9 I got to declare iirc. Wasn’t 100% sure about it - I’d never declared it in a letters round online or anything, but it jumped out at me in a way that made me fairly sure it was a thing… I’d seen it as a conundrum a few times before which must have been how I remembered it. Ngl, it’s generally a pretty fucking good spot in a selection which doesn’t look particularly 9y.
