Great books. Recounting a christmas, something along the lines of "I bought her a jigsaw, she bought me a cadillac."

Excellent reads. Some wonderful tales of a World now passed.

Several decades ago I was in a nightclub, rather drunk, and I apologised to someone who tried to enter through the same doorway that I was using to leave.

The doorway was a mirror. I was apologising to my reflection.

My father was a chauffeur to a film star immediately post war and met Niven. He refused to watch any film he was in, his way of paying him back for whatever reason. My father had some stories. He became friendly with Marlene Dietrich and was more than willing to talk of her. She was, according to him, the only one with a bit of character in the whole business. He drove a Roller and reckoned he could retire early on what he saw. His employer's secretary lived in Herne Bay and she had some scandalous ones and was only too willing to share them. She'd gone out to Hollywood with the film star and later worked as a private secretary to a couple of famous female ones. I always took new girlfriends to see her. She added a charisma that I so sadly lacked. We don't, unfortunately, hear half of it in books.

I had a quick Wiki and fell down the usual rabbit hole(s). Mind boggled.

The Graham Hancock theory of a cataclysmic event involving large scale flooding about 12500 years ago, wiping out previous possibly-high-tech societies of which we now can only find massive high quality structural stuff, is fascinating.

It’s derivative of Erich von Däniken‘s bonkers theories about aliens and all codswallop.

That would certainly explain South London.



Other than the massive, high quality structural stuff, obvs.

Lol, Graham doesn't say anything about aliens and the facts are undeniable about an advanced civilisation. He speculates on some of the stuff but those ruins are undeniably real and ancient, especially the pyramids. I hope one day we find something out about how they built.

I think I'd remember if that had been posted before. It's like something from one of those 'megastructure' videos.
