Jono's life sans Xara

Meanwhile...

Seasons Greetings to one and all.

Here's an idea I've been playing around with off and on for a few days. It was actually inspired by a small wooden sculpture I saw in a museum in Krakow (Poland) earlier in the year.

It's called, "Keep holding on - with novelty reindeer antlers".

hi jono, just catching up with the thread - now you really don't need me to tell you how good you are, do you ?

seasons greetings - I will put the novelty reindeer antlers with the joy division oven gloves....

And a Happy Christmas to you Jono.

This variation is called "Still holding on".

haha, I've not looked but I bet such things exist! (and now I want some!)

That's fantastic Egg and very apt. Only yesterday I was left hanging in a looped message for 15 mins with no position countdown.

not sure about that, but burk'n'ead band half man half biscuit wrote a song about them; it's a satirical take on merchandising; if you lookaround google you may get some interpretations on the lyrics that strive to be insightful, meaningful even, but if you listen to it, its a pi**take

Ahhh, I knew I recognised 'Joy Division Oven Gloves'.

Although I'm reasonably familiar with HMHB (via the days of John Peel) I don't think I've made it through one of their albums in one sitting yet. They've recorded some great tunes to whistle along to, but I find you have to be careful as they can become persistent earworms. I'm thinking 'Deep House Victims Minibus Appeal' - "Said the public sector leader, At the pre-launch breakfast briefing, Get your cheque books out..." (I'm humming it just writing this!)



(pretty tasteless when all things considered - Joy Division + oven gloves)
