I know little about All About Eve but as you say it's a pleasant enough little ditty.
I did spend the whole time waiting for it to "get going" though.

Talking of oldies, I have just been clearing out under my test track and came across a vinyl "Sing a new song" by the Settlers, an old 60's Birmingham group.  The Settlers lead singer was Cindy Kent who is now a vicar and regularly does Songs of Praise on the BBC. I remember seeing them live in Reading, besde the river Thames next to the Reading Rock festival site.  The vinyl still plays well and includes a brilliant Streets of London and Nowhere Man

Yes, agreed on both counts, I never ignore threads on RMWeb either I must say, and that's much more active.

"all unread" rarely gives me more than a page or two of new posts to catch up on so never find it a problem to scroll past stuff I'm not particularly interested in. 
 
It does highlight the need for topic starters to phrase the title as a synopsis of the subject, not just "help needed!"  :)

I suspected that was the case. Unfortunately the "all unread" and "recently unread" functions - my preferred ways in to new postings are just clogged up with threads in which I have no interest and the content is like to read gets lost. Being able to ignore threads would have helped.

That's a blast from the past @kusojiji ! I recall Roger Whittaker appearing on the TV a lot during the 60s/70s and he only died in 2023. I quite liked "Durham Town", a bit cheesy by today's standards...

He had an interesting past and life story.
