Gilmour Day

~~~

I have many memories around May 25th 1984.

A hot friday night.

End of sophomore year in high school.

Months of anticipation … concert countdown days.

I guess we are all lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year, running over the same old ground, what have we found: the same old fears, wish you were here.

 

Wish you were here, Now Today.

Busy Times

~~~

As ever, we are sadly behind schedule here at The New Great Hall by the Sea. But today the floor project was advanced one iota.

The July 4th Summer Wrap Up party is still on however, the town of Winthrop has cancelled this years Fireworks. I still hope a few folks will still wish to kick it. Or perhaps wait until the Annual Reading of Browning’s “The Pied Piper of Hamelin” on Sunday the 22nd. Six years ago we had a similar event met with great reviews and good times.

The New Dominion

~~~

Q: So we have heard about this “new dominion” a couple of times.  Can you tell us something about it?  Is it Satanic?

VH: From time to time we take on a new campaign.  Some fizzle out, others achieve great victories.  The “New Dominion” has to do with an extra 50lbs The Host has accrued in his hard labours.

Q: So, your talking about some new Zen diet or something like that?

VH: In that ball park.  But, at no expense of The Good Times.  Plus, with the Pandemic Obesity problem, we need to do our part.

Q: Is 50lbs realistic?

VH: It’s a start.
