I'd like to send that Steve Harley clip to my daughters, but I'm useless with videos. I click on 'share' but it takes me to Facebook or Tik Tok or crap like that. Any  easy way of doing it, like Whatsapp or something?

Just harking back to Steve Harley for a minute, when did he pass away? Heard nothing here.

As they bid farewell to Jowan Trelawny outside the entrance to the long driveway leading to Trevelver Castle, expressions of gratitude are exchanged, along with promises to meet again soon. With a final wave, Jowan then set off on his journey back, leaving the convoy to continue its path toward the castle.

As the pair of 'Castle Estates' Landrovers approached the grand entrance to Trevelver Castle, a sense of anticipation filled the air. Despite the biting cold and the deep snow, the four friends returning from their mission felt the warmth of true camaraderie.

As they drove through the imposing gates and along the sweeping driveway, the imposing silhouette of the castle loomed before them, bathed in the soft glow of twilight. The sight of the ancient dark grey stone walls and the bright lights within served as a comforting beacon, a symbol of safety and sanctuary amidst the wintry landscape.

Awaiting their arrival were Lord and Lady Trevelver, standing on the steps of the castle with Huw, Gwen, and a group of the guests, waving eagerly. Their faces were lit up with smiles of relief and gratitude as they welcomed the returning party home.

Inside, a roaring fire crackled in the grand hall, casting a warm glow that spilled out into the entrance hall. As the vehicles came to a stop, there was a flurry of activity as the drivers and passengers disembarked, greeted by the familiar faces of friends and loved ones.

Lord Trevelver stepped forward, extending a firm handshake to each member of the party. "Welcome back, everyone", he proclaimed warmly. Your efforts have not gone unappreciated. But, in particular, I intend to recommend to Prime Minister Macmillan that Jowan Trelawny be awarded the BEM, the British Empire Medal, in recognition of his outstanding service and dedication during the emergency snow-clearing and relief efforts this Christmastide."

As the group made their way into the castle, there was a sense of pride and accomplishment in the air, a shared recognition of the importance of their mission and the bonds of friendship that had carried them through.

That's an interesting choice @Malc . A long time ago, I had a sampler album from the Deram record label called Wowie Zowie, Savoy Brown was included as were:

Side 1
1. Touch: Down At Circe's Place (4:47)
2. John Mayall: Where Did I Belong (3:08)
3. Savoy Brown: Train To Nowhere (4:05)
4. Johnny Almond: Voodoo Forest (3:32)
5. East Of Eden: Communication (3:23)

Side 2
1. Genesis: In The Beginning (4:08)
2. The Moody Blues: Nights In White Satin (4:19)
3. William R. Strickland: William R. Strickland Is Only The Name (4:37)
4, John Cameron Quartet: Go Away, Come Back Another Day (4:59)
5. Keef Hartley Band: Not Foolish, Not Wise (3:50)

An interesting disc but not quite as good as the Island samplers. Track 4 Side 1 features the late Alan White (Yes) on drums. John Cameron became part of CCS and has had an interesting career, Genesis sounded nothing like they would, and I rather liked Touch's "Down at Circe's Place", so here it is...

Steve Harley (and Cockney Rebel) always put a smile on my face with their humorous singles such as 'Judy Teen', 'Mr.Soft' (I have that on 45) and the above mentioned 'Come up and see me'
He'll be missed :(
