Today is Wednesday, the 4th of January 2023.
Happy new year, world, said the fox to the ox.
Have you seen the scarf for the giraffe?
But the scarf for the giraffe was far too large.
And a Docteur just mocked her.
What was I talking about?
I give anything for a bad rhyme...

"Leaving Bromford"
Life springs eternal
On a gaudy neon street
Not that I care at all
I spent the best part of my losing streak
In an Army Jeep
For what I can't recall
Oh I'm banging on my TV set
And I check the odds
And I place my bet
I pour a drink
And I pull the blind
And I wonder what I'll find
I'm leaving Bromford
Lights so bright
Palm sweat blackjack
On a Saturday night
Leaving Bromford
Leaving for good, for good
I'm leaving for good
I'm leaving for good
Used to be I could drive
Up to Barstow for the night
Find some crossroad trucker
To demonstrate his might
But these days it seems
Nowhere is far enough away
So I'm leaving Bromford today
I'm leaving Bromford
Oh, lights so bright
Blackjack on a Saturday night
I'm leaving Bromford
I'm leaving for good, for good
I'm standing in the middle of the desert
Waiting for my ship to come in
But now no joker, no jack, no king
Can take this loser hand
And make it win
I'm leaving Bromford
Oh, I'm leaving Bromford
For good, for good
Leaving Bromford
I quit my job as a dancer
At the Lido des Girls
And we're dealing blackjack until one or two
Such a muddy line between
The things you want
And the things you have to do
Oh, leaving Bromford
Lights so bright
Palm sweat blackjack
On a Saturday night
Leaving Bromford
I'm leaving for good
Oh, I'm leaving Bromford
And the lights so bright
Palm sweat blackjack
On a Saturday night
I'm leaving Bromford
I'm leaving for good, for good
Oh, I'm leaving Bromford
And the lights so bright
Leaving Bromford
And I won't be back
No, no
No, I won't be back
Not this time
Life springs eternal
On a gaudy neon street
Not that I care at all
I spent the best part of my losing streak
In an Army Jeep
For what I can't recall
Oh I'm banging on my TV set
And I check the odds
And I place my bet
I pour a drink
And I pull the blind
And I wonder what I'll find
I'm leaving Bromford
Lights so bright
Palm sweat blackjack
On a Saturday night
Leaving Bromford
Leaving for good, for good
I'm leaving for good
I'm leaving for good
Used to be I could drive
Up to Barstow for the night
Find some crossroad trucker
To demonstrate his might
But these days it seems
Nowhere is far enough away
So I'm leaving Bromford today
I'm leaving Bromford
Oh, lights so bright
Blackjack on a Saturday night
I'm leaving Bromford
I'm leaving for good, for good
I'm standing in the middle of the desert

Oh, I'm leaving Bromford
And the lights so bright
Leaving Bromford
And I won't be back
No, no
No, I won't be back
Not this time
