The over-loud soundtrack does rather detract from the dialogue. Does it? I must be fading it out. Hence missing Holst earlier. Silflay hraka, u embleer rah!

Perhaps you'd appreciate my b-i-l - performer, maker, magician, teacher... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=quGuW...uGuW3IpCJU (And the best uncle to my kids. Sorely missed. Especially the Christmas presents). Great atmosphere building in this film, btw. They don't do it like that any more. That was brilliant! Thanks, There's a couple more of his things on YT, and there's a whole lecture about how he built the spinning chair...I can send you the link. He's probably the only person to spin three different things at the same time. Was. Sorry. I keep forgetting. Yes please! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=quGuW...uGuW3IpCJU "You're not sulking, I hope?"

I guess there might be a lot more sirens and screaming sometime soon.

It's very very hot, but father and son are still wearing their jackets. Wouldn't happen today. |

The dialogue is very clear though. They cut the music a while back, after the jazz number. I'm not sorry "You're not sulking, I hope?"

A brief burst of Camptown Races from one of the fairground rides, but that's all. |

If you still need cheering up, those aircraft controllers remind me of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqm7...qm73DLtwD0 (Listen to it later - it's too long and too funny to waste). Edited by M1795537OCVirn on 21-03-2024 20:31 "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Earth's tilt has changed by 31.5 inches (80 centimeters) between 1993 and 2010 because of the amount of groundwater humans have pumped from the planet's interior. (Space.com) "You're not sulking, I hope?"
