Midweek Music Lyrics by Suffolk songsters
A strand of silver hanging through the skyTouching more than you see
The voice of ages in your mindIs aching with the dead of the night
Precious life (your tears are lost inFalling rain)
And if you hear me talking on the wind
You've got to understandWe must remain

Brits: They drive a German car. They go to Irish pubs, to drink Belgium beer. They get a Chinese takeaway on the way back. They sit on Swedish furniture, to watch American films, on a Japanese TV. Most of all though they are suspicious of all things foreign. [I]Told by Rick Wakeman while on tour.[I] On This DayIn 1987... The picture 'Sunflowers', painted by Vincent van Gogh was sold at auction by Christie's for £24,750,000.
Van Gogh took his own life and died with insanity, and a virtual pauper after mainly giving away his paintings in exchange for goods, but never selling any of what were to become masterpieces, selling for millions.Today's Hadleigh sunrise: 06:32
