I “discovered” #MorecambeAndWise last night. Not that I hadn’t heard of them before; their show was running while my family lived in England, but somehow we never watched it. (most likely, it was on at the same time as a show we watched regularly on another channel) They seemed like a more debonair version of #AbbottAndCostello. I was especially impressed with their precision timing and lightning fast repartee, all while making it look easy.

Who knew that I had something in common with Robbie Williams?

Eric Morecambe was my childhood hero too. I was devastated when he died.

I don’t blame Robbie for going all out to buy Eric’s glasses. It’s hard to think of any object (other than his pipe maybe?) that is more quintessentially Eric. What a thrill to have them!

My #SaturdayNight?

- Watched an old #MorecambeAndWise
- LOLled out loud at it
- Loved guest star #KennyBall 's ragtime version of "Someday (You'll Be Sorry)"
- Chased that song down a rabbit-hole
- Ended up making TWO #ChasAndDave playlists

Still single, ladies.
