WAIT A MINUTE, WAIT A MINUTE ....

 


POSTMAN


Please Mister Postman, look and see
(Oh yeah)
If there's a letter in your bag for me
(Please, Please Mister Postman)
Why's it takin' such a long time
(Oh yeah)
.............
There must be some word today
.............
Please Mister Postman, look and see
If there's a letter, a letter for me


Yes, you guessed it - Robert's deleted all his posts again, he's .......WAIT!  Wait a minute, wait a minute ........ it's not Robert, it's ...... Richard!

For the third time Richard, the founding member of this blogging community and creator of Richard's Bass Bag (the original bass bagging site) - don't ask , has deleted all of his posts. He does that when under stress or attacked.

All of the posts 'like wot he wrote' since he started the third generation of Richard's Bass Bag in August 2020 have been wiped.


Here's a link to an earlier post of mine where generations 1 and 2 are mentioned: HERE


The first deletion was necessary given that some interfering busybody in the workplace decided to, for reasons of his/her own, distribute the blog address to his employers who had no sense of humour.

The second deletion is unexplained and maybe, just a maybe, could suggest that he wanted to be like Robert and 'flush' his blog occasionally. I guess we can all be thankful that when his third version appeared it was apparent that any wishes to be like Robert didn't extend to blogging.

This latest deletion is just silly but I won't elaborate on this because it is private to Richard. It's a shame though because, while Richard's Bass Bag version 4 has already surfaced, the old posts have gone. I looked forward to reading these and, sometimes, re-reading them. I won't say that they were the highlight of my day because that spot is permanently reserved by The Old Girl, but they were good. It's a shame that they, and those of versions 1 and 2 have disappeared into the ether.

 

I've been standin' here waitin' Mister Postman
So patiently
For just a card, or just a letter
Sayin' he's returnin' home to me

Tra il dire e il fare c'รจ di mezzo il mare. Thanks for the kind thoughts. Some things in life are complicated and I'm feeling a bit down tonight, like I have a story to tell and that the exact truth of the situation hasn't really come out. There you go.
