Happy birthday this 12th May to ...

esmeria!

While I'm here, a few odds and ends ... I should mention the latest Niffle of Rat by Vindictus Viridian (a Marauder prank tale with Peter as the prankster). I see no-one has guessed which fic I did for springtime_gen. And I so would have liked to refer this poster to Bound for Detention. :)

Lyrics: The last one was Leonard Cohen's Tower of Song from 1988, one of his many fine songs, as gilpin25, a_t_rain, and finmagik all recognised.

Another oldie I just happen to like (from someone I discovered today was apparently George Harrison's best man when he got hitched the second time. Well, I never):

Dad's gone down the dogtrack, Mother's playin' bingo
Grandad's swearin' at the telly, tryin' to make the thing go
No one seems to notice me, isn't it a sin ... (1960s)
