Hi cmsjs1...great to hear you're joining the merry Dublin bound band!!

Sorry to hear you've been poorly jayfan...hope you are recovering now.

Hey jnb...seems you and Siva are on the same wavelength ....

When thoughts overload
And feelings forebode
When emotions explode
Write.

When you want to unload
And your spirit is bowed
When the heart will implode
Write!

Your lovely prose brings back beautiful memories for me too, Lola. The skirt's long gone, but we're still together!

When you're heart's on a high
And you feel you can fly
Then just tell the world why
Write!

When you think you're small fry
And each thought brings a sigh
Why not give it a try?
Write!

When happy times abound
And you find common ground
Then life can astound!
Write!

If hope runs aground
And no-one's around
And your dreams are unsound
Write!

You should have made a heart-shaped cushion from your lucky skirt, BB. 💖

So it didn't take me long to end up on the night shift again but, hey!!... it's worth it to watch Jay and Diana talk about their BIG stage experience. Everyone's very excited...including me 😆

Jay being typically self-effacing but I can confirm...he does act amazingly😃🎹🎭🎶🎹💃

Thanks for the link. Lovely interview but I wish the cameraman had kept still! The backwards and forwards movement made me feel a bit swimmy!

Autotext!!! jnb

Lol - I understood autocorrect is the bane of my life too!

Thanks speedy - hadn't seen that interview before - pretty BIG 😂

Happy thanksgiving :

I don't know you, we will probably never meet but I don't think there has been a day gone by since I started to read this thread that you haven't posted a poem, a picture, a video, a daft jayjob that makes me smile, so yes in my slightly clumsy way it was to say a thank you for making me smile each day.

It doesn't take much effort to say thank you occasionally

No, it doesn't.

Get Well soon Jayfan🍀🌸

So Lola - you won't be wearing an orange swirly outfit in Dublin???😉 Am partial to wine velvet - love the colour 😊

Me too - less than 2 weeks to go now..:🎹🎶🎭✨😝😄

Thanks a mill Ahouch 👍- good review - there was a nice interview with Irwin Sparkles also on Today FM- not sure if the link to it was posted already?
Just in case and 👍DD. for link below -about 34 mins into interview on 24th Nov on The Fergal Darcy Show
https://twitter.com/daysdeise/status/801825645982609408
Its more about background info on Irwin than Jay and ends with
"🎵Goodbye Mr A"🎵 which brought back nice memories 😌
Happy FriJAY all !!✨🍀✨

BB - and a thank you to you for being brave and admitting that you wore a wine velvet skirt and chiffon blouse that was the catalyst for my attempt at a pome - although I do think we need pictures of this outfit

I had an ankle length 2 piece wine velour/velvet outfit which I liked a lot and maintained well -it was recently resurrected and skirt part currently being shortened ..it is about to get a new 'lease of life'

Max just posted a cute ThanksGiving pic of himself with Jay 🍁🎭✨

Lovely poem Lola

Hope you're feeling better now jayfan


Thank you for the link Ahouch. Nice review

Thanks also Ahouch & Polly for the thanksgiving tweetlinks

How I love the poems
That appear upon this thread
They make me smile & chuckle
When read inside my head

At times, though, they are more profound
With thoughts & feelings deep
And when I come across these
They sometimes make me weep

Now firstly there is Korky
Our most prolific bard
A pic appears, she disappears
Inspired, off working hard

Then there is our BB
The original BionicBard
Creative & inspiring
Rhymes held in high regard

And not forgetting Rafferty
Another feline kitty
Who offers gold stars from a tin
And rhymes that are so witty

Now when they get together
The rhyming couplets fly
Encouraging all us others
To give poetry a try

Thanks Whiffle - been a while since I've tried a ditty but, as you say
in your last lines, encouragement to try a bit of creativity is always appreciated.
Will be gone for a few days so have a great weekend everyone

More thanksgiving fun!

Thanks Ahouch, Polly and jnb for the thanksgiving tweets - it's nice to see that Jay is spending thanksgiving with Max.
Thanks to speedy as well for the interview link - it led me to this on you-tube, which is Bethan Turner doing a time lapse painting of Jay in BIg.

True. I have never been into poetry much but love those on here. Thank you. Remember - Jay "As i am a wordsmith". Siva "what is that?" Jay "Moving on".

Afternoon peeps.

Thanks for all the wonderful links, pics and odes. Love, love, love them!

jayfan, you deserve a medal for the recordings of KD (hope you're feeling better). Many thanks to Arnostae for posting the links. They, along with the great reviews, transported me back to the fun time in Edinburgh (you're right speedy, I was very, very lucky!).

Hope you're getting better jnb so you can be on top form for Dublin.

Have a good day all.

Hello, everyone!

Busy day of work ahead but just wanted to say that (even though they've already been posted here), pics and videos of Jay at thanksgiving will be posteed on MD. Only 1 video so far from Instagram Stories, but I hope there'll be more throughout the day
