Huzzah!
At last I can see the parcel is at the Sydney West sorting office and will be delivered to the recipient tomorrow or Friday

I seem to be having a ZZ Top morning. OK, subtle it's not in the main, although certain tracks such as 'Rough Boy' and 'I need you tonight' do have some tasty guitar licks

It's very sad that such an icon has gone from us, but I do wish the BBC would stop wallowing in it and asking anyone who has a voice to give soundbites

That's rather sorry, very good, John. 

I think she said "It costs a fortune to make me look this cheap"

RIP Dolly.

I agree completely, Chris.

Here's an example, but not the one I quote from time to time on my layout thread:

Interviewer: "Miss Parton, how long does it take to do your hair for one of your performances?"

Dolly: "Shucks, Honey, I don't know because I'm never in the same room when they are doing it."

Thanks again.

John

Just turned on the news and was shocked to hear Dolly has died. I'm not a huge country fan and I never bought any of her records but she was inspirational. There is a saying among my wife's musician friends "take your music seriously but don't take yourself seriously" and she was the essence of that. She has left a huge legacy and was the best of America.

RIP,

Cheers,

Chris

One thing I found repeatedly is that in each direction always use the tracking site of the country the parcel is currently in. A lot of the states of things don't translate sanely so we've had Royal Mail claiming the most bizarre things for a parcel but when you checked the local delivery company it all made sense (and vice versa incoming - eg the US doesn't seem to know how to explain "it's at the sorting office waiting for customs payment"

Very sorry to hear that the wonderful Dolly Parton has died, @Train Waiting will be most upset. Here she is in happier days...


RIP Dolly.
