BBC Radio 2's Chris Evans said, @ 3 mins ago, "The theme of today's show is, 'Even genius needs a break so the rest of the world can catch up' OK: samples from classic book, The Impressive Depressives? Did you know that nearly all the most creative folk in history were bipolar: The Genius Illness? So I'm in illustrious company, yes? Must ask events in history today? Celebs & historical figures born 27 Jan? NW UK Holocaust Memorial Day events? John Logie Baird's 1st demo of TV .. Daily Star said, in '96, that Take That were gonna break up .. ?? So Chris played This Could Be The Greatest Day Of Our LIves, leading up to 7.30am news My dear, wise old Irish ma taught me to start each day with that attitude That item was actually done as I hung on 0500 288 291, as Chris asked to ring if you're doing something today that you've never done B4 Timed out B4 BBC could answer it, but I'm gonna see Haywire, as being most appropriate for an ex-champ martial arts teamster: C U @ Yums Chinese Buffet, Bold St, High Noon? Then @ Liverpool One Odeon for the 1.50pm show? Movie won't start till @ 2.05/10pm, as they always build up atmosphere & anticipation with ads & trailers first, yes? This weekend is The Big Garden Party weekend ?? Good luck with that in a cold snap forecast to last 4 weeks, eh? LOL Celebs & historical figures born 27 Jan? Happy b'day ex-world heavyweight boxing chaamp & erstwhile inventor of sandwich toasters, George Foreman If I recall right, this was veteran Scouse comic, the late great Arthur Askey's b'day & I think it was ultimate slapstick clown, Sir Norman Wisdom's too? Or maybe it was Groucho Marx? NW UK Holocaust Memorial Day events? Hi Happee I won't publish the joke I just PM'd you @ that amazing baby pic But we're not forced to stick all day with the attitude we wake up in, thank God: coffee can work wonders sometimes, eh? Leads neatly into Dinah's words @ stream of conciousness: stream of semi-conciousness is more accurate in my case As it happens, our chat over lunch made us too late for the action movie, so 2 of us saw The Iron Lady I always did say that politicians are often moe funny than comedians: I roared laughing at some of the famous lines I recall from the original events I'll just reply to a few questions & link back here in case interestig memories are evoked in others ...
