R.I.P. Bert Weedon.

"Bert Weedon, the English guitar legend behind the Play In A Day tutorial book, has passed away at home in Beaconsfield at the age of 91.

Play In A Day, first published in 1957, has been cited as a major inspiration and vital early guide to the likes of The Beatles' John Lennon, George Harrison and Paul McCartney, as well as Eric Clapton, Brian May, Robert Smith and Pete Townshend. The tutorial book has so far sold over two million copies around the world."

RE: which river did you swim ??!!......

Sound impressive Jeeps...was this some kind of hobby of yours, or couldn't you afford the ferry?

Rio Grande?

Were there many coming the other way?

RE: which river did you swim ??!!......

No worries...hug

But it does give me the opportunity (again) to say to all those who claim they can't swim...

LEARN!!!

The man couldn't swim, he was only a few metres from safety, but... he had no intention of being in the water that day. A simple slip would have ended in a bit of a laugh...had he been able to swim.

RE: Which is the best beer in the world?

There are so many micro breweries producing the finest beer to be found. None of these would be on your list, in fact all those listed I would steer clear of...uh oh...especially as I've just enjoyed a couple of pints of Congletons Beartown breweries Bearskinful...thumbs up

cheers

RE: which river did you swim ??!!......

Talking about rivers, this is the source of the river Mersey, about half a mile from my house.

Looks like there are a couple of guys ready to swim this...crazy fools...laugh

RE: which river did you swim ??!!......

It rises in Wales, runs into England but at the mouth of the river which country you are in depends on which bank you're standing on. The north bank is on the Wirral, England, the south bank in Wales.

My friend Scottish Gordon swam the Rhine in a drunken state many years ago.

He was always a bit crazy.

RE: which river did you swim ??!!......

I did cycle across a river in Wales once.

It became a bit touch and go in the middle when the water almost reached the handlebars...uh oh

Already canoed part of the River Dee, from Overton to Chester, none of that section in Wales though.

Could it be Elvis next?

Found it...thumbs up

But not a hologram, like the Elvis one, could only be watched on a screen.

cheers

Could it be Elvis next?

Hi Rohann, just had a look for that but couldn't find anything.

It was probably done the same way as the Elvis one. It's called Rotoscoping.

Rotoscoping allows you to take one image from a pre-existing piece of video and puts him a whole new environment, but as I mentioned earlier, this has to be projected onto a screen, the Tupac show was a hologram of the performer on stage.

Could it be Elvis next?

It seems the audience in the Elvis show could only see him if they watched the screens at the side of the stage, whereas in the Tupac show he was there in full view of the audience.

It's completely different and new technology.

Could it be Elvis next?

Apparently unlike the Tupac 'performance' this is not a hologram.

confused

Could it be Elvis next?

A hologram of the late rapper duets with Snoop Dogg on stage – prompting the question: which other pop stars would you like to see similarly resurrected?

When does a hill become a mountain?

Yes, no denying when you visit Zermatt and gaze up on the Matterhorn...

That is a mountain!!!

Relatively easy to climb though...depending which route you take.

RE: Anxiety in a relationship

Anxiety and depression can produce similar effects on the mind and body, but depression is usually more about the past, whereas anxiety is more to do with the future.

Better to face the fear of anxiety than suffer the stagnation of depression.

RE: Anxiety in a relationship

Anxiety is a form of fear.

You could examine if your fear is really justified.
