But but but ... text woman, text!

feel like that phrase ought to be included in the lyrics to "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights"

Julie - Ah, I've been called out. Today should remedy the text deficiency. Nice to see you back - I've been enjoying "Riff" and will be stopping by more regularly.

Jackie - Good call, GF. They're a set of lyrics, but from "Dirty Old Town". I'll give Meatloaf a call and see if he wants to borrow them.

Originally a song about Salford, of course.

The gasometer remains a significant landmark in Dublin, although I can't quite see it from my office window. I don't know how many of those apartments are occupied now, either. A monument to folly if not a folly itself!
