🔗 📼 Why is England called England?

.. and lots more besides if you have interest in the history of names.

At the beginning of the year I had grand plans for this series. A daily long-form post about something that was rattling my brain that day. And then life. For a while, I was even just dropping markers - to revisit. I came to realise that part of the problem was the complexity of the structure for each post - so that went away. Simplicity really is rather nice. As I write on 240413, I am now going back and filling in the gaps. PLUS - unless something strikes me immediately, I will not classify until the end of the day and go back to move one of the posts of the day into the 366. Also - if you are wondering how I have update the words at the bottom of over 100 posts at a stroke, well - THANK YOU Andy Sylvester and his Glossary plugin.

Some people respond to me with musical references.

I do it. A lot. In reverse? Not so much.

This is an example of someone who has done it a few times. ❤️

So, may I introduce you to - no, not ‘Billy Shears’.

Elvis.

No, not that Elvis.

This Elvis.

📼 The Arc people continue to think out of the box AND create really nice and different introduction videos

Not sure how I knew but had the Arc search app installed before I understood what it was doing.

It is doing clever things.

📼 🎵 Orbital

Gorgeous. Totally gorgeous. Welling with tears.

In the spirit of John Cooper Clarke and Simon Armitage.

You’ll be hearing more about them soon as part of a larger initiative I am working on.

Oh - and if you like Orbital - you might also enjoy 🎵 📼 🔗 this

On a business call this morning, we took a sidetrack down the path of ‘the problem with flying’. Flanders and Swann were mentioned - and specifically the ‘bit’ they did about excess baggage. I know their stuff - this one didn’t ring a bell.

🔗 Just found it

😂 Fell on the floor laughing.

There’s 📼🎵 something in the air. Anybody else feeling it?

It started happening last week. All good.

But .. not all good apparently 😖

I tried to find a post on my site to link to - #FAIL.

Gnashing teeth.
