The meaning of life..........

Differential equations! I may have been able to solve them years ago when forced to do so, but wouldn't want to see another one. Ever!

soontobe I have heard of Neil Sedaka, but never heard any of his songs before.
Well, there's a treat in store for you!

Rosequarts. if I was to appear in Vogue, it would have to be a double page spread.
Managed to get in Aeromodeller once and a pic of myself along with one of my models in a book on aeromodelling. Hardly bestsellers.

I am probably younger than most on this forum
I have heard of Neil Sedaka, but never heard any of his songs before.

Someone will probably tell me to lighten up, but I am having a chuckle remembering what Jess M said when a philosophy forum was suggested

"This forum stands as much chance of having a reasoned debate about the meaning of life as it does of solving advanced differential equations."

But perhaps there are several gransnetters who could solve differential equations

I do remember DD and her friend putting lemon juice on their hair and sitting out in the sun. They would probably have been better to go to Boots and buy some hair bleach.

I will be finishing my current modeling project within the next few days pompa I was looking forward to seeing you on the pages of 'Vogue'.

Will have a listen to these Neil Sedaka songs in a mo.

Someone has not heard of Neil Sedaka - how old are you, soontobe*?

Not boring jings I love it, with its change of key. I have had half a bottle of wine though, so most songs would sound lovely.

I like the penguin parody too.
So easily pleased.

I just used neat peroxide. (many years ago)

Oh!

Must admit I prefer his other hits - Oh Carol, Breaking up is Hard to Do, Calendar Girl etc.

(What are crow less sun hats? )

And crownless

I don't have golden locks either

I ain't got the golen locks either.
Did you know they used a mixture with urine in it which they used to put on their hair, then spread it out over crow less sun hats and sit on their Venetian rooftops to bleach their hair to gold?

Neil Sedaka wrote it so he must have recorded it as well although I only remember the BH version.

It is a bit parky round here too tonight Galen.

then Jason had a go

The dancing has come on a bit.

Gawd jing that really takes me back!
Still love it though!

Oh tempora, oh mores!

Sympathise with Browning in a Toccata of Galuppis

'And those women, dear dead women
What became of all the gold
Used to hang and touch their bosoms?
I feel chilly and grown old'

Heyho! Only three weeks to Venice (which that poem was written about!)

They sound surprisingly alike! Were they ever seen in the same room together?

That's my kind of dancing.

They both sang it

Laughing at the dancing girls!!

....although, going by the comments under that video...

Yes look. he did sing it

Oh you didn't mean that did you? Right. Bryan H sang Galen's song. Sorry.

I remember Sedaka singing it. I was on a walking holiday in the Lake District with three othe girls. Age 17 so too young to drink. It rained the entire time. Never done one since.

Well, it says Neil Sedaka!

It sounds a lot better since I've had my dinner.

That wasn't Neil Sedaka it was Brian Hyland.

Oh yes "Oh it's gonna be a long, lonely su-u-mmer, But I'll fill the emptiness, I'll send you all my love, in a le-e-tter, And seal it with a kiss"

Lovely.
