Eureka moment!


While there just aren't enough hours in the day for me to get round to finishing the rose tiered petticoat I've been sweating over for months now*, it's taken me a good 26 years to work out that in Once in A Lifetime (a song that always reminds me doing my O levels, along with Lawnchairs by Our Daughter's Wedding, New Life by Depeche Mode, There's A Guy... by Kirsty MacColl and Body Talk by Imagination), Talking Heads are not singing 'And as the days go by/there's no automobile' but rather 'Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down'. Honestly, I had no idea until today.

But then I didn't realise Basil Brush was a fox until about five years ago. I thought he was a brush. Because I don't like that puppet, I'd never given it much thought. Then it struck.

*As if
