Just seen on the gogglebox re the damage to France's most famous Cathedral...shocking. At least the infamous bell tower survived....the ghost of Quasimodo, can carry on on swinging away on the bell ropes!

What did Oscar Wilde write: a cynic is a man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.
Notre Dame represents far more than just a building. It is the soul of the nation as witnessed by the huge sums immediately pledged by wealthy individuals for restoration; some 800 million euro last I heard.
In a similar vein, after the destruction of the Dresden Frauenkirche during the Second World War, the East German authorities had planned to build a car park on the site, but local feeling was such that they backed down. Following the reunification of Germany, a massive rebuilding of the church was begun in 1992 using the original architects's plans from the 1720s, and original features recovered from the ruins and carefully numbered by inhabitants after the bombing. The project was finished in 2005, a year ahead of schedule, and is a source of immense local pride.
Quite apart from its religious significance for believers, Notre Dame (and other contemporary buildings like it) are a testimony to the spirit of mankind. How they even built such an edifice without access to the construction techniques we have today. Countless other buildings have come, and as you say tech, gone in the centuries since, but Notre Dame endures through fire, war and revolution. May it rise again.

800 million'd buy a lot of houses! move on, french people, feed the poor that you're so proud of!

Trigger: And that's what I've done. Maintained it for 20 years. This old brooms had 17 new heads and 14 new handles in its time.
Sid: How the hell can it be the same bloody broom then?
Trigger: There's the picture. What more proof do you need?
:)

Trigger: And that's what I've done. Maintained it for 20 years. This old brooms had 17 new heads ..."
The stone walls are still standing, for the most part. Human cells are replaced at what rate I don't know. You ain't the same tech you were when you were born! 😂

yeah, read the legend of 'Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego and Tech!'
.....and, tim, yes i recognize the fact that i have been entirely replaced by me, but it didn't cost 800 million euros to create this finely sculpted and perfect work of art!

Okey doke then...time to put away the tonk tonks..and announce the winners.
'Riding' well away with it this week, by a clear 9 point margin, is Low Rider by War, so Tim take the top step on the podium, well done sah!
And the 2nd place to stand next to Tim, reeping 23 whole points into the bargain, is Little Sister by Queens Of The Stone Age, so the second step goes to Johnny.
And we have another tie, two songs having a battle for the final step all to themselves, sitting ugly togther as they are, both managed to garner 22 points apiece, they are: Honky Tonk Woman by The Rolling Stones & Rawhide by Scott Walker.
A quick countback, reveals that the aging pouting wrinkly rockers, ala M Jagger & co, managed 1 extra max points over Mr Walker, so Jemma gets to proudly go Yayyyy! :)

Hello y'all,
Rightyho, straight in with this one then...Jimbo wants a whole loada cowbell noise for this round, so let's get busy tonk-tonkering then:-
'More cowbell!' Any track which features afore said percussive instrument. Anyone not sure about what a cowbell sounds like, listen to the beginning of Forbidden Lovers by Be Bop Deluxe - it's that stunted tonk-tonk sound'
Whilst looking for my nom on YT...came across this amusing Saturday Night Live spoof clip from 2000, with Christopher Walken & Will Farrell..gave me a few chuckles:
