I bought some Robinson hyperconcentrated fruit squash to enliven my bottle of drinking water. On the pack it says 'avoid contact with eyes'.My subconscious is annoying. It's got a mind of its own.Comment

Something, ahem, interesting that I've just learned.
I think you have to be at least 45 to remember the Old Grey Whistle Test but do you know why it was so called?
The show’s presenter Bob Harris once explained that the name came from an old Tin Pan Alley expression.
When the first pressing of a record was made, they would play it to the doormen who were known as the “old greys” because they wore grey suits.
If they could remember the song and whistle it after one or two listens, it had passed the old grey whistle test.Comment
