Jeff At The Proms
By some oversight, Thought Experiments seems to have missed Jeff's latest emission - a masterly review of a Michael Ball concert. A classic of its kind I'd say (i.e. not one single word showing any detectable vital signs) - and I like the 1 comment it's attracted (so far), especially the last bit...

A blog about, among other things, imaginary ideas - What ifs? and Imagine thats. What if photographs looked nothing like what we see with our eyes? Imagine that the Berlin Wall had never come down. What if we were the punchline of an interminable joke? All contributions welcome.
Mr Tumnus, indeed! Poor old C. S. Lewis must be spinning in his grave.
ReplyDeleteJeffrey's style is..... well, sleep-inducing. I read the Michael Ball review, but then made a big error by reading through the account of his holiday. It was if an accompanying voice was whispering "you are feeling very tired; are you sure you want to go on?"
ReplyDeleteIf Appleyard is a walk through back-alleys to the sinister sound of steel toe-caps clipping cobbled stone, and the threat of a jagged edge, Jeffrey is a journey through a strawberry blancmange, initially pleasant, but ultimately nauseating. Take him to a desert island? On the evidence of his blog, I'd sooner perish in deep water.
The toecaps, johntyh, are tinfoil.
ReplyDeleteDoes Sir Jeff really write that blog or does he have a staff of underpaid slugs who drag slime around a touch keyboard?
