It's The End of The Musical World! Richard Strauss. Also sprach Zarathustra.
Yes, I know I've posted this before, but for anyone who missed it first time round, may I suggest you get out the Kleenex, go to the loo (otherwise you might wet yourself), and enjoy.
Not particularly Mayan, but could this be the end of the musical world, as we know it?
That racket could stave off the end of the world! Good on the kids for giving it a go, though!
I shall pass from this world to the next christening my pond. I don't mean easing springs into it, I mean fishing it. Having gone to all the trouble digging and then stocking it, it would be a shame for all those fish to go to waste! Last night they were leaping clean out of the water. Maybe like the Dolphins in the Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Universe, they are getting ready to leave. I shall dress smart casual and take some beer down to the pond with me.
What...you still here? :-) Me too! Well, that little clip managed to put Buzzy McDuff into a lather, throw back his head and howl. So funny - loved it!
I'm so glad you posted that, I missed it last time obviously. Brilliant and you were right it bought a smile to my face, managed to keep the other thing under control. lol Briony x
If I don't get back before Christmas, I would like to wish you and your lovely family, a very happy holiday, with good health and much happiness for 2013.

Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!
This is a daily, optimistic, 'photos and comments' blog. I make no judgements (only occasionally), just notes. If you wish to comment in any way at all, please feel free. Everything and everyone (except the obdurate and dictatorial) is very welcome.
I was born just south of London, but for the past 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. We also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching).
Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!
Is enjoy the right word?
ReplyDeleteHa! All the right notes - not necessarily in the right order - well, not even the right notes. Musical suicide.

Well they tried.
