Pretty extraordinary - Tom Lehrer, aged 92, has decided to put all his lyrics and sheet music into the public domain, before he passes away. https://tomlehrersongs.com
Feeling a bit out of sorts and tired today :( Anyone got anything fun/interesting for me to look at to distract & amuse me?
B is working on computer animated charter marks based on The Old Kingdom series by @garthnix. Next step is to make them part of a cloak
Day 1 of “self isolation” for F today after a confirmed case of Covid at school :(
I must know more than one person who would be a great fit for this job :)

Listening to Bach violin sonatas and partitas. Just lovely
Not sure how I feel about the lyrics “I want to go fast not steady” in the latest song F(9) has written

I don’t have a favourite gif and can’t even imagine having one but this thread has made me laugh and smile this morning (and taken up far too much time)

I need your VERY favorite gif. No, not top 10 or top 3. The last gif you would post before your last dying breath. You get one. Gif it to me.
