It’s ONE WORD WEDNESDAY.

You know the (new) rules. Choose a GIF or image that illustrates, to you, the meaning of the word. We do this obviously under protest, because we have no new half nakedness. Reblog with tags within this thread because we want to see everybody’s choices, etc. 

The past two Wednesday words have been beautifully oblique. I have been giving this a lot of thought, and took @jessieren’s comment that she tries to come up with a word around a photo she happens to want to use to heart.

I hope you find the myriad possibilities in this week’s word. 

Today’s word is…..

Morse.

How much icing would the stache trap?

LEWIS || Life Born of Fire

[incorrectendeavourquotes]

Thursday: Morse? Don’t you have something you want to say to DCI Box?

Morse: Yes, but then you’d make me apologise for that too.

Just rewatched Arcadia and I don’t know if it’s in my head or what, but the queer subtext between Morse and Peter is so fucking overwhelming you could drown in it.

What do you mean - ‘you knew & you could have told me’, Morse? What does that mean? What do you mean it’s ‘sudden’? What do you mean you’re calling him Peter?

A few days ago I reblogged a post by @harrison-abbott from @oldshrewsburyian. The post contained a link to a recording of a Schubert string quintet - which was glorious. It got me thinking that I might actually have a recording of it on vinyl because when my dad died (many years ago) I inherited his classical records. I've played some favourites many times but it's years since I've gone looking through the whole lot. And on Friday, when I tried to look for the Schubert, it was impossible to find anything - the records weren't in any kind of order except for the few I play regularly. So, I decided to do something about that.

Here are all the records taken out of the sideboard where they live - a mixture of dad's classical, my classical, and mine and my husband's pop, rock, folk, jazz etc.

One of the things I found quite moving was that there were a few examples of where I'd bought a recording of a piece that I'd learned to love as a child by dad playing it, so now I have my copy and his copy. Smetana's Má Vlast is one example, and here's another:

It turns out that I don't have the Schubert string quintet, but I do have several other Schubert recordings including this one:

And here they all are, back in the sideboard - one side for classical, one side for all the other genres, both sides now in alphabetical order.

Oldshrewsburyian alluded to morseverse in her tags, and I have to say, spending the afternoon sorting through the 1970s records of someone I loved who has since died certainly made me feel a touch Lewisian!
