House of Cards — Series 6: Episode 7/Chapter 71 — The Review

11th January, 2019.


Yep: for once I’m actually listening — late at night — to something that’s not on Spotify.


I think I was having a weird patch, when I got it from iTunes: exploring strange and uncanny musical areas unknown to humanity, with unruly edges that invite the listener to contemplate the infinite in new ways their mind’s eye — hitherto — hadn’t dare perceive.

Yeah … 

Odd, in other words … 

~≈§≈~

At any rate … ?   And not wanting to rush?

I want to go to bed, tonight: as I have a long day, tomorrow.

Remember that I’d put in for a provisional driving license?   To help prove my ID at job interviews … ?

I’d sent the form off: and had it sent back, as I’d forgotten to sign it.

Then got it back, again, today … 

As they wanted my most recent addresses … 

Ridiculous … ?

Yes.

It leaves me asking what on EARTH I’m bothering for … !

~≈§≈~

At any rate …

It’s enough to turn you to drink, to be honest.

Or more Stockhausen, in my case …

Or, just to be different … ?

Another episode of series six of House of Cards … 

~≈§≈~

Episode 7 — Chapter 72 — opens with Doug Stamper (Michael Kelly) desperately digging for … something … 

A something that turns out to be his former lover, Rachel.

He’s ALSO got access to Frank Underwood’s diaries*.

Something President Claire Hale (Robin Wright)— the President has started using her maiden name — is deeply interested in.

In the midst of all this … ?

Someone … has almost caused the President to lose her child.

Things … are getting tense … 

~≈§≈~

Now … I have to admit, I’m enjoying this series of House of Cards: but this season — so far — seems a little patchy.

This episode was: although not as bad as some.

Right at the moment … ?

I’m going to hit the sack: we’ll have to see what the next — and last ever episode — brings …





*        Quotes from the diaries are actually the various asides that Frank has made in the first five series.

I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?

I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.

Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.

Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.

Thank you.
