Everything okay?

Oh, a change is coming, feel these doors now closing
Is there no world for tomorrow, if we wait for today?

I work upon the principal that if it isn't someone will probably tell me - and they haven't as yet. ;)

I remember something being said about the cathartic value of screaming and shouting in a room designated for the purpose and thought The Watch could do with one. I suspect it will be as well used as that place where we can talk in real time ( does anyone ever dust in there - it must be filthy) but at least we have it.



Come to think of it, actually I'd forgotten about The Tank - talking about screaming and shouting in a room designated for the purpose.......

Way way at the bottom of the index page. The Watch's live chat function.

It's a bit buggy.

Go click on the link you'll see.

I'll meet you in there Skyweir if we ever happen to be simultaneously posting (which given our respective locations is, I grant, somewhat unlikely! :) )

The long and winding road that leads to the padded cell
Will never disappear
I've seen that road before it always leads me here
Leads me to the padded cell

The wild and windy night that the rain washed away
Has left a pool of tears crying for the day
Why leave me in the padded cell, let me know the way
Many times I've been in a padded cell and many times I've cried
Anyway you'll never know the many ways I've tried
And still they lead me back to this padded cell
You left me sitting here a long, long time ago
Don't leave me waiting here, lead me to the padded cell

But still they lead me back to this padded cell
You left me standing here a long, long time ago
Don't keep me waiting here (Don't keep me wait), lead me to this padded cell
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Don't know why this Beatles song with some *AHEM* 'creative liberties' The Long and Winding Road reminded me of a padded cell but oh well. :D
