CraigB (ITIYRN), wow - does that mean we are now allowed to reference that rather odious medical condition CakeAlexS ? 😄

I'll tell you what Kenny, the service was so good at that hospital I left a massive tip.

Nice circumvention there Craig. 🤠 Circum...what now 😄

Can we still say ***** 😄

I began a lifelong love of the music of Glenn Miller & His Orchestra when, as a young lad, I often listened along as my dad played the soundtrack LP of the movie The Glenn Miller Story. Wonderful stuff.

Great find! I vaguely remember watching it when it first aired.

February 7th 1238: Mongolian forces led by General Batu capture and burn the important Russian city of Vladimir, after an eight-day siege. Coincidence? I think not. Many Happy Returns Eduardo 🎂

I see the newer generations of AI as just another creative tool for video and film makers - available to those without the skills, budget and time to produce convincing CGI. Although no doubt AI-generated movies and videos are already very good, when it strives for realism, most of them still have the 'uncanny valley' giveaways of early and poor quality CGI/motion capture - think Polar Express for example. If used 'innocently', I don't see a problem - much in the same way as no one who watches a Jurassic Park movie thinks thy are looking at real dinosaurs. Mind you, once the technology comes of age, the use of such a technology will undoubtedly be used for more nefarious reasons.

You mean CakeAlexS's birthday?

Rain: Yeah, that's take #382 Bapu: Am I ever going to get my tracks 😡 😊

Wow Danny, that's a lot going on there mate. On the teaching gig - having personally benefitted innumerable times from your advice, knowledge and (endless!) patience, all I can say is your students are in very good hands 😊 As Craig says, it's so sad under the circumstances of this thread, but it is nice to see you around.
