The Netherlands has restrictions for pubs after 12.00 now. We have mouthpieces in regions which are orange on main streets like Amsterdam. and Mouthpieces in public transport.

Cases are rising. Not a lot of restrictions. I live in a region near the German border and the only persons with mouth pieces here are speaking German (As they have to wear them in supermarkets). We are trying to go one day or two a week back to the office aside mum's have little children, or people have special health conditions. People are hesitant and fortunately everyone has the equipment at home to do the same work rather than in the office. I see that people are even more productive, but also tend to be more online. In the summer we had team members working from 7 different European countries as they had to stay longer visiting their parents (multi-national team).

I have not been in the office since March as I had a not Covid related lung problem. All in all I assume that in October there will be more restrictions. They will only be cautious that they keep people working as the economy is already hurt badly.

 

And for Robbie. It is somehow strange after the overload to hear nothing. I thought of Gwen, but read somewhere that she had been on vacation on Mustique so she cannot do that bad (if it is true). Then I thought about a hair transplant :-) I could also not recognize if the pavement Teddy walked is British, American or whatever. If he will do a Christmas album II he will need to record the songs. I also wonder if he will continue with the TV plans. With people at home and the autumn and winter coming he might start something? Well, it will be interesting what he is up to and I am very curious.

The hair transplant conspiracy is hilarious Elisabeth, you think it's in the pipeline, I like when he shaves his head, looked fab this summer . Looks like we have to wait & see if he turns up. I have not seen Guy about much so maybe they are working on something . I read yesterday that Jonny Wilkes posted that the Pantos have been cancelled for this year which is rather sad . Guy & Robbie were just so lucky that TBITD happened before lockdown , imagine if it happened earlier. Robbie is up for an award as a newcomer , it will be streamed live , I posted the link to the live event in the Boy In The Dress thread , you can register to watch on the night . I would love if he got this award.

 

 

 

 

In a case if Robbie will win this award, then republish The Christmas Present this autumn with additional sales to reach Platinum status I'd say he does very well for this year adding Soccer Aid success, launching a new LMA campus (even w/o his participation in UK) and def having some more time for thinking (music and not only) about future.

 

I think he could record even more duets during that period than we have got already (Ronan, The Struts, Danny Jones) to use it later.

More than ever this Christmas - albums like The Christmas Present will sell well. People will want to feel warm and fuzzy after the awful year.

 

If families can't be together - they will be looking for comfort in familiar things.

 

I think the album will sell well whether it's re-released or not.

me, too, Syd. I am a fan of 'hair' so would not mind a transplant :-)

 

Why does he need a hair transplant? There's nothing wrong with his hair is there? :blink:

Sorry - my internet is playing up - didn't mean to ask that three times :rolleyes:

I also like it now, did not like the shaved head that much. Still love Rob in the Bodies video and the Julian Broad photoshoot at CBH at that time. It is only a personal taste that I like hair on heads. And I doubt - according to Robbie - that his will be strong enough to grow longer by itself. The hairtransplant for Gary Barlow and Juergen Klopp did magic (for the hair) :-).

Take this with a pint of salt, superficial anyways :-)

There's talk of Jools Holland returning to the BBC so maybe that's a ray of hope, however I still think Robbie giving the isolation thing it might not suit him unless they pre-record stuff which is not really the nauture of that show ...

Btw, the name of his single Time For Change is so fit to this year...

Yes - it all seems really poignant now with hindsight. -_-

Interesting Irish artist called Lyra appeared the Late Late last night, what a great voice , a real breath pf fresh air also lovely funny personality by the interview she gave afterwards

 

 

 

Our Government has allocated €50 ml in todays budget to the live music industry which is really good news , hopefully it will help to keep artists who need it going until this pandemic is over & we see live acts back where they belong ...
