Northern Soul...

[Lie-in King]

...at the Proms - I know there are a few fans of the genre here & since Lynne introduced me to it, I count myself as one, though I'm still (& guess will always be) muddling through...

Anyway, if anyone's interested, it's on this evening - BBC2, 19:45 > 21:15 & I'll be watching with interest :-)

I missed you Pasta.
This was the result of my accident

Cut right down to the scull!

[naomi24]

Ouch! Mending well though, yes?

[Countrylover]

Yes Naomi. I am lucky our hospital has a great plastics team.

[naomi24]

What happened? I think I must have missed the story.

[Countrylover]

Fell flat on my face onto the sharp edge of our stone hearth. Never seen so much blood. Ct scan showed I had a brain!!

Oh good grief! That must have seriously hurt! How awful! (The accident - not your brain!). :o).

[Omg21]

Just watching this on catch up and really enjoying it.

[Countrylover]

If it’s my comment, Countrylover, I’m referring to watching Northern Soul at the Proms that the original OP was about. Re- reading, it looked as if it was about your comment.

OMG Lottie! That looks like brain surgery! I can imagine the immediate result of that kind of fall.
I tumbled down the last few steps on the stairs...no injuries but the space is tiny and for a few minutes I had doubts I'd be able to extricate myself.
Advancing years are fun!

[Lie-in King]

Omg21 - glad you're enjoying the Prom :-)

Lottie - "Ct scan showed I had a brain!!" - never in doubt, though it looks like it's a good job it's not bigger... ;-)) x

Legs it behind the sofa...

[Countrylover]

OMG. It wasn't for you. I haven't a clue how I posted it!

Obviously my brain did suffer.

To be honest Naomi, it didn't hurt much at all - no sense, no feeling! Also I suffered no concussion. I was alone and just grabbed towels and held them to my head and phoned 999. I bled, and bled. I'm on bloodthinners. I was still bleeding hard whilst they stitched me up. I was the talk of A a E, all the staff came to have a look and some took photos!

And LIK you can come out from behind the sofa now! ;0)

[Lie-in King]

Phew! x Just keep on getting better, (Lottie) :-)

welcome back Lottie... but back to the Prom's, this bloke really impressed me ..... I'm going to see if I can find him performing. All the singers were excellent

[naomi24]

I liked him too, bob. Great performers all though.

Lottie, just as well you had your wits about you. What a fright!

I was never interested at all in Northern Soul but my brother was an absolute fanatic and used to go every week to Wigan Casino. He's got some of the rarest NS records, so he says, amongst a massive collection that he still plays. I mean MASSIVE! He's got boxes and boxes of singles and LP's.

[Countrylover]

Great voice, but not impressed with the song.

Thanks for your welcome Bobbin.

My actions surprised me Naomi. Just a good job it didn't knock me out. I would have bled to death.

And, guess what, at present I'm restricted to bed because of my back!!

But nice to be back.

[Countrylover]

This is more me!
