1. I look up at a tower. The clouds are scudding, and the brickwork seems to move.
2. Introducing Fenella to Beautiful South's haunting cover of You're the One that I Want and discovering that she loves it too.
3. To settle a supper argument about the four humours I get out Brewers Dictionary of Phrase and Fable. I can never remember the official name of black bile -- it's melancholy, which is a lovely word for a really useful emotion. I might spend some time being melancholic later in the year. Being cheerful all the time just can't be good for one.
now you've gone and reminded me of durer's amazing engraving ...
ReplyDeleteTristan, which beautiful thing reminded you, just out interest? Was it Durer's engraving of scenes from Grease? Or did he do the four humours? Or a tower?
ReplyDeleteOr perhaps John Travolta and Olivia Newton John singing and dancing about the four humours on top of a tower. The mind boggles.
