Hello, Elle!
It came out of the blue to me that Sissel did the Titanic vocals.
There is a clip of her doing them onstage somewhere.
I am getting more impressed by the minute with this lady.
I liked Titanic, but I think "A Night" was more factual, and I always liked Kenneth More.
Last time I was in NI, I visited a cricket club there.
And their one time club captain was Thomas Andrews, the man who designed Titanic, and went down with the ship.
Still a lovely evening here!

Update, Elle!
Here she is doing "Titanic".

Hi, Rusty!
Yes, that clip also was great!
Sissel is certainly a 'good find'!
I am just amazed that we had never come across her before.
I have finally caught up with the Birmingham Grand Prix this evening.
Dina Asher- Smith did brilliantly in the 200m race.
She came second to Shaunee Miller Uibo, beating some really big names.
Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce came third, with Dafne Schippers fourth.
Well done, Dina!

Hello, Elle!
I agree, Sissel is very special.
I just happened across her by chance, and glad I am that I did!
Just shows the amount of talented people that are out there unknown to many of us.
Thank goodness for YouTube!
That was a high class field that Dina was in.
She did very well indeed!
Another bit of news that pleases me, is,
"Who Wants To Be A Millionaire", with Jeremy Clarkson, returns on Sunday!
I am looking forward to that.
I like Jeremy as host!

Hi, Rusty!
I haven't watched "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" in years!
I watched Judith ("Egghead") win, on YouTube recently, though!
That was an old recording....... and a very young Judith!
I might give "Millionaire" a go.....
I haven't seen Jeremy Clarkson in action!
I'm catching up with "Casualty" again at the moment.....
Then I'm away to my bed!

Good morning, Elle,
Fine fresh morning here!
Just waiting on a gas engineer to call sometime this morning.
One radiator not working. Wonky valve, I think.
You saw some of the last series of Millionaire with Jeremy Clarkson.
You were interested when I mentioned a new option when the contestant was stuck on a question/answer.
As well as "ask the audience", "phone a friend" etc, there was "ask the host".
Contestants could ask Jeremy what he thought the answer was.
It was good!
I like Jeremy as host.
I never ever thought I would take to Jeremy but I liked him on Millionaire!

Good morning, Rusty!
Yes, a lovely day here, too.....with a nice light breeze.
Good walking weather.
I hope your engineer fixes your radiator .
It isn't long since your annual c/h inspection ......did the engineer not check your rads then?
Our "deal" ( a cheap option) is checking the boiler, and the radiator valves' function, annually.
We get the valves fixed or replaced for free.......but are not covered for a replacement radiator.
Yes, you are quite right about Jeremy Clarkson!
I DID see him in a clip that you sent to me......
I remember now about the "ask the host" option .......it was funny!
Yes, I shall give it a go.......the programme looks promising.
I am going out very shortly to have my hair cut......
I shall be back about lunchtime.
No word from the plumbers!

Hello, Elle!
Radiator fixed!
It was a sticking pin in the valve.
Took a minute to fix.
My radiators were all working when the annual inspection was done.
I'm looking forward to Jeremy and Millionaire!

Good afternoon, Rusty!
That is good that your radiator was fixed so quickly!
And at least you discovered the problem now, before the weather becomes very cold.
Although the Winter seems very far away, today.....
We have bright blue sky, and sunshine...and a warmer temperature than of late...20C this afternoon.
Very pleasant!
I now have hair an inch shorter in length!
As dog had hers cut last week, we make a matching pair?
I shall print out my crosswords....and endeavour to solve a few clues.
I expect you finished your puzzle earlier?

Hello, Elle!
Yes, these particular valves are known for the pin sticking in them.
It is a fine day here, too.
I finished my puzzle online this morning.
Was a good one.
I did not buy me a paper today, as I stayed put a-waiting my gas engineer.
