We need to run with what we have for now (soon to run out), so one more of The Saint. Oh for women to still be womanly … sigh.

“Simon Templar meets Valerie North on a flight from New York to Paris. Valerie is traveling to meet her brother, Charles, whom she has not seen since childhood, due to their separation during World War II. 

Upon arrival in Paris, police inform Valerie that her brother has been found murdered in the River Seine. The St. Christopher medal he wore around his neck was stolen. Simon decides to help her investigate the crime. 

It is revealed that Valerie possesses an identical medal. The two medals together are the key to a valuable secret, likely related to stolen antiques or money linked to the Nazis during the war. 

The main villain is Georges Olivant, a Nazi collaborator who worked with Charles during the war. Olivant kidnaps Valerie to get her medal and discover the secret. Simon must uncover the connection between the medals and the wartime treachery to rescue Valerie and bring Olivant to justice. 

The episode is known for its fast pace, strong writing, and a more gritty tone than typical for the series, featuring flashbacks to wartime resistance heroism and an exploration of the raw memory of collaboration in post-war Europe. “

JH: Looking at that thumbnail, sorry to bore you further on male-female but I always tried to move her into a position of control should she wish, which sitting like that did, while she was trying to get me thinking I was in control … whilst she was actually all along. It worked until the harder stuff was required, via her signal … whole thing is a constant dance is it not? Or game of chess.

9. DAD on Guido on Britland

Guido reports


Latest figures from the ONS show GDP grew by just 0.1% in July to September, slower than economists’ expected 0.2%.That’s down from the previous quarter of 0.3%. And the worst performance in nearly two years

GDP fell by 0.1% in September. Grim reading for Reeves


UPDATE: Shadow Chancellor Mel Stride said:

“Today’s ONS figures show the economy shrank in the latest month, under a Prime Minister and Chancellor who are in office but not in power.”

7. Protocols which kill

Thursday [6]

There’s an argument I’m going to try to put, despite choruses of “what utter bollox” … and it’s this:

 

  • It’s not a great plan to just post endless pop and folk nostalgia, as for every song I posted, readers would either summarily dismiss “that pop rubbish” or else would be into it, but quite different songs to those I’d choose, from eras I’m not into.
  • For example, if some of us say we like “jazz”, then I’d include THIS as jazz … but jazz, to others, might be some 50s Felonious Monk or some saxophonist making late evening slinky, squeaking noises from his instrument in a smoky piano bar … hence just trad for me please.
  • However, should certain songs be intrinsic to the history of the era, then I’d maybe play two, max three in a post here to illustrate the point being argued.
  • And one thing becoming increasingly apparent to lil ole me is that speaking of “the 50s” or “the 60s” is a misnomer or mis-datum or whatever. Post-war, there’s more of a case, imho, that decades should be called 55 to 65, 65 to 75, 75 to 85 etc. … more awkward, yes, but more accurate.
  • I’d call 45 to 55 as coming out of the big band, orchestral era, then using sax and keyboards to a greater extent in the 55 to 65 era, give or take, then taking a turn downwards into screeching, strident, showoff guitars (e.g. metal) in the 65 to 75 era, pre-punk … nastier era.
  • And thus, I’m going to commit heresy and say I don’t like how the Beatles and Stones ruined pop music. This was how it was in 55 to 65 (hear the intro by the artist):
  • I’m by no means saying it’s “great” music … it’s danceable, which was its purpose, sing-able … it was happy music, Friday or Saturday night music, not clever nor complicated like Pink Floyd or ELP, super serious about selves … it was fun, that was all, for relatively innocent kids.
  • This illustrates the point even better:
  • Going to finish up this first post of two (the second and final being about Louie Louie sometime later) … finish with the B side to that song just now … their song about “Little Donna” and before I play it, please note:

To my mind, the Beatles stink in their attitudes … their song was 1976, the Rivieras in 1964. And another thing … dancing should be joined together, one male, one female, occasionally breaking to show off at each other for a couple of bars.

2. A word about other European languages

Yes, I’m well aware of 1788, and of Trafalgar, and of WWs 1 and 2, and of Crimea, and of Crecy etc. And I want none of the Fabian communist EU where the power positions are unelected and even if they were, the stoopid Continental peoples, like ours, would vote a wolf in to look after the sheep.

At the same time, it does help to be able to at least gain meaning from Euro text such as that above. It’s not brainpower, it’s just familiarity with Latin, patterns.

For example, “los españoles en Barcelona ya son minorĂ­a” is fairly obvious, I’d have thought, in the context of our invasion woes across the west. I don’t speak Spanish or Portuguese beyond a few words and yet the overall thrust of that post is not all that difficult to understand in visual form.

13. Which?


12. Ireland


11. Was it years ago I ran this song?

And discussed it with Toodles. Well today, I discussed it with MMutR and the different views were … interesting. Assuming we were in an acceptable age bracket, whom would we go up to to talk to? Previously I thought the white shirt dancer in the staged thing on the bridge, start and end, plus red track trousers but she might be a bit iffy, red track trousers … switching my attention to the female professional dancer for a cup of coffee.

Midweek Matinee

 

Not quite sure of my timings this morning, so best post this early … there’s a second for later if need be … quite liked seeing Shirley Eaton again but just shy of two years later, she would get her comeuppance elsewhere, involving gold paint.

Wednesday [6]

(0905) Time is tightening here folks, as I have a certain amount of housework before my visitor … this might be the last before late afternoon, maybe a couple more. (0926)

 

The essential problem with all of these fine people below

Rupert (similar in parlmt):


The problem is not in what they say, all are probably correct. The problem is that all we can ever do, given our personal circumstances, plus the way we drop into the stoic “mustn’t grumble” we’ve been brought up to do … ensures NOTHING is done …

… and those evil muvvers, in vicious alliance, who are combining to do this to us, are grinning at Suzanne Evans and Co … who are complaining bitterly …

… and that’s it.

Until the next Sep 13th type march. Which completely ignores that we are going to first starve and then be hit by the third world army waiting in every town and hamlet in the land. The obvious question is … even if all the wokeleft and normies, all of us too, finally woke up to the extant danger (the raped and murdered girls know exactly how it is) … what can actually be done?

Can we suddenly lay our hands on sufficient firepower and even if we could … the wokerati, plus normies, would call such a thought racist or something. And are we trained as soldiers once they strike? To keep pleading with govt is followed with angrily pleading … these bstds are on an agenda, are they not? As if it makes the slightest difference to them, the pleading … they’re “the elite”, or so the real elite tells the non-comps.
