It'll just get worse
We’ve written about getting piercings many times before. The last was a good long time ago.
While we have been out this summer, we have been asked about piercings, and while we hate to repeat ourselves or produce pages of confusing instructions, we can offer some guidance. If it helps, good.
If you think we have missed something, or have questions, do contact us. We’re not trying to encourage you or discourage you from doing it, just want to say a few words to make it all a bit easier.
We always loved the late 50s early 60s tv puppet (marionette) shows set in space, Space Patrol and Fireball XL5.
The originals are available on dvd and elsewhere, but someone has taken the trouble to re-animate them and make them, well, sexier.
When I was doing a course on how to be a teacher, we watched a tv documentary called Seven Up!.
It came from 1964, and met a group of fourteen seven year olds to talk about their lives, their families, their aspirations and so on. It was originally designed as a one off, but in recent years, the group have been re-visited, so we have had things like 42 Up.
Over the years, some of the original group have left, either because they no longer wished to be associated with the project, or they fell out with the director, or they died.
So tomorrow we come to 70 Up. The probability is that this will be the last, though no-one expected even this to happen after director Michael Apted died in 2021.
It’s ITV, believe it or not.
