Once upon a time about 50 years ago and then again about 40 years ago in a land not so very far away from here called Wales, there lived a little green steam engine called Ivor. Ivor the Engine worked out of Llaniog railway station. Ivor could sometimes be a naughty little engine because he had a mind of his own. His favourite hobbies are singing with the local choir, making tea and visiting the seaside. Ivor has lots of friends where he lives, including Dai the Station master, Owen the signal man, Evan Evans the Choir master, Mrs Porty, a rather eccentric lady who loves buying new hats, Mr Dinwiddy, who describes himself as an amateur scientist, lives in the hills where he digs for gold and is always losing his boots but Ivor's bestest friend in the whole wide world is Edwin Jones, Ivor's driver. Ivor also loves animals and has ...
Advantages: Always entertaining, sometimes hilarious Disadvantages: No real disadvantages
IvorCutler's third album for Virgin, originally released on vinyl in 1976, continues his highly idiosyncratic trawl through life with the usual mixture of tall tales, some presented as unaccompanied prose speech, others sung (although the word is used advisedly) with piano or harmonium.
It's a long way from the hippie Virgin fare of that era - only his labelmate Robert Wyatt (with whom Cutler collaborated on "Rock Bottom") comes remotely close. Humorists like Spike Milligan and Vivian Stanshall are far more accurate reference points.
Ever the miniaturist, Cutler crams over thirty vignettes into the album. The perpetual "Life in a Scotch Sitting Room" has two more extracts included here, both of which are wonderfully bizarre evocations of a childhood of porridge, country walks and learning about the development of Glasgow ...
Advantages: Gets rid of dandruff. Guaranteed. Disadvantages: Possibly the price?
Nizoral shampoo to me is the Emperor of the anti-dandruff shampoos.
I have used this now for three years. I am 46 and have suffered from dandruff for over 25 years. During those years I have used various anti-dandruff shampoos of various strengths and duration. All have worked temporarily; some for a long time others for a few months. My dandruff has always returned, it seems to get immune to the shampoo, and builds up a resistance.
I have checked this and apparently dandruff is the result of yeast, grease, or fungus, or all of them. This results in the flakes and bits of dead skin. So if it is a fungus then like bacteria I suppose it would build up resistance to the shampoo in use at the time.
In my case if I let it get out of hand then it is like a snowstorm. I hate it. I always get the impression people think you are dirty ...
