24th August, 2018.
I’m definitely feeling a bit dicky this morning, I really am.
The usual trouble: the innards are playing up, again.
To the point where I might just have to phone in ill: I’d rather not be too far away from a toilet …
The shame of it … ?
Is simply that last night — eating the dinner I think caused the flare up … ? — went well enough that I caught a movie.
Split, so you know.
That was rather good …

Let’s move on, shall we?
Yesterday’s Teaser saw Debbi* putting in her answers: scoring four out of five in the process.
Let’s see how everyone does with today’s questions, shall we?
Q1) 24th August, 1948, saw the birth of musician, Jean-Michel Jarre. What — in 1976 — was his first hit album?
Q2) What was Jarre’s first album called?
Q3) 1990 saw Jean-Michel release En attendant Cousteau. Which oceanographer was the album about?
Q4) His first live album was recorded in which country?
Q5) Finally … ? There is only one legal copy of Jarre’s sixth album. What’s that album called?
Here’s yesterday’s questions and answers …
Q1) 23rd August is the feast day of the obscure Saint Tydfil. There’s a town named after her in which country of the UK?
Q2) There’s at least three villages, or towns, called 23rd August: in various parts of which European nation?A2) Romania.
Q3) 23rd August, 2016, saw the death of actor, Steven Hill. He’d played Dan Briggs: in which TV series?
Q4) 23rd August, 1947, saw the birth of playwright, Willy Russell. Which of his plays was turned into a film with Julie Walters And Michael Caine?
Q5) Finally … 23rd August, 1914, saw Japan declare war: on which European nation?A5) Germany.
Here’s a thought …
“I think that you have to seriously have fun, or taking serious things in a light way and obviously, for me, before all, music is made of fun and pleasure and excitement.”Jean Michel Jarre.
And some music …
Today’s questions will be answered in tomorrow’s Teaser.
Have a good day.
* There’s STILL no airdate! Debbi, it’s getting stupid! Oh, did I mention I had a (very battered) copy of the book in the picture? Can’t think where I put it …
