Sage Words from Jeff
'Lord' Jeff stops me in my tracks again. He is advising us to go to Nicholas Nickleby at the Gielgud Theatre, a show in two parts. 'It's not compulsory,' says Jeff, 'to see both parts or even both on the same day, but you would be wise to see Part I before Part II - although that is perhaps stating the obvious.' Perhaps. But, then again, who knows?

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.
He is truly a national treasure. Roger Scruton should write a book about him.
ReplyDeleteLord Jeff is probably right. I read the second book of the Lord of the Rings before the first and although I was able to follow the story I think it would have been better had I read the first book first.
ReplyDeleteAnd you Brits are indeed fortunate to have someone like Lord Jeff. (Why does that make me think of Lord Jim?)
You Americans had the Truman Show, we have 'Lord' Jeff's blog. (I don't know why 'Lord' is written so - has he been defrocked or something?)
ReplyDeleteIt is an expression of incredulity, Ian
ReplyDeleteI'm learning, Bryan.
