No one says your name no moreWhen once it was in all our thoughts
I know you’ve gone ahead a while
But I can still recall your smile
But no one says your name no more
I looked at some old snaps of you
You look so happy never blue
We were always guaranteed a smile
With cheeky looks you could beguile
No one says your name no more
I sit and don’t know what to do
Some days it’s just all blue all blue
I could talk of you all day
But everyone says please don’t say
No one says your name no more
Well I’ll take every chance I can
Talk about the man the man
The man who’s name they will not say
The man who’s voice we could not enslave
No one says your name no more

Re: Gumbud Leisurely Scribbles (part 3)
I was reading about the Apple watch, what a load of rubbish! and the price of it! Who the hell wants to be reminded of their blood pressure at the flick of a wrist?, how many steps you walk in a day or how many calories you consumed in the pub? and a reminder that someone you owe money to was trying to ring you, why carry all that bad news around on your wrist all day? is it any wonder this generation are nervous wreaks, have they learned nothing from the Yuppies and their filofax's? that's why you never hear about Yuppies anymore, they all went mad from worrying, a whole generation ruined by trying to be on top of everything all the time, can't be done I'm afraid.Then when you get home she says “Darling, we have to talk, (Another American import, I hate it when they say that, sirens start screaming in me ears) I wanted to speak to you about the household spending, and I’m overdrawn at the bank again” “Hang on a second until I check with my new Apple watch, no, not a good time now, me heart is up to 98 point 6, perhaps after dinner, then we can synchronise our watches, level off at 78 point 4 and if we get overheated we can both drop dead at the same time. (Now there’s an idea for a new Apple double coffin)
I prefer to take my chances and go when I gotta go, no point in worrying about it all the time, out of sight out of mind, so no matter how cheap they get I won’t be getting one.
