When I was a five year old "Titch" I watched Thunderbirds and always wanted to do the countdown. whilst NOT for Thunderbirds you'll understand why I enjoyed doing this intro ....

We don't stop playing because we get old, we get old because we stop playing.

I just read that exact line in a gig! George Bernard Shaw, yes?

Anyone else picture a Thunderbirds marionette version of Philip in his Top Tips video doing this read?
No?
Sure? Ok.
I'll just let myself out.
