^Actually it appears they are quite different meat. Regardless of what meat it is or what it is supposed to be :D

Eg i had doner and shish in London (doubt there is any here due to gyros) and it tastes very different. Iirc gyros is *supposed* to be pork (?). Doner/shish is (again supposedly) lamb (?)

They look different too (gyros is closer to doner, but with other meat and larger and non-continuous cuts, whereas doner is one roll afaik).
 
John Wetton, former vocalist of King Crimson has died several days ago. I guess he managed to escape the One More Red Nightmare before the rest of us.

It hasn't been a good couple months for the King Crimson guys. :sad:
 
Keep your hands off Robert Fripp, 2017!

Or Bill Bruford, but he's retired and (actually about to be inducted in the Hall of Fame with the rest of Yes) so he'll be safe, for now.

Didn't stop Squire from passing before Yes was nominated.
 
Just got an offer to send my Cv to a language learning office

My thoughts -

I have studied 4 languages at university - English, Latvian, Latin, Lithuanian. In some courses and self-studied - Polish, German, French, Russian.

Nowadays languages aren't valuable themselves, just as tools to do something else.

I have earned total less than 100 euros from Latvian/Russian/English private lessons and translating from English a bit.

If I don't plan to be a corrector, editor or a translator, I can't see much of a reason to further my language studies. Every next language just makes me smarter, but there are no cash returns for time spent. I could improve my Japanese or pick up Czech, but why? For self-education my head is full of physics formulae already.


 
Apparently, feeling Tired All The Time (TATT) is the one of the most common complaints made to GPs in the UK.
 
You are so funny. The world lost a great stand-up comedian.
