> [@3Wells](#): > > a bit of a damp squib here Probably mostly down to the track, and direction of the winds, which meant we got maximum protection from our “shelter belt” and the landscape! Not really a damp squib for the 194,000 homes and businesses without power! Hoping the worst of it missed y’all too … ---

Aha! Note the wording 😉 Theaker was who you _heard_—but left shortly after recording the album. All the (mimed) promo appearances featured his replacement, a certain Mr C Palmer. ---

We had a drama today I was chatting by phone with my friend when her 6 year old announced that a strange man had called When he was admonished for opening the door the wee cub got upset So B rang off to give healing cuddles At that moment a delivery courier rang our doorbell and proffered a big bag of parrot food A different man to the usual drivers we get so he had needed directions One small boy taught not to open the door to strangers a mystery solved and a parrot fed for 3 months It just brought home the innocence of wee boys and the need to instill a sense of caution into them ---

> [@3Wells](#): > > small boy taught not to open the door to strangers Any small boy worth his salt would point out that one can’t tell whether or not it is a stranger _without_ opening the door. Instead of parrot chow, it could have been sacks of LEGO… [Gusly grinnity] ---
