Excellent Service
By Margaret Rose

I ordered these flowers for my Aunt & Uncles Golden Wedding . They live in Southern Ireland , so could only hope it would all happen according to plan . Was not disappointed !.. I received a text on the due date to say they had been delivered & then my Aunt rang me the next day to say how thrilled she was with her beautiful flowers . She had received a phone call asking if she was in ...as she was out shopping the florist even arranged for her to pick them up from a location that would suit her while she was out ! ...Now that is customer service !!!..All in all very happy with the service will definitely use again

It was Okay
By Walshian

The flowers were nice, there just wasn't enough of them and I had paid for a large bouquet. I have a picture of the flowers in the vase with the chocolates from the person I got them for and I wasn't overly impressed. I have used interflora before and the previous time was excellent, the bouquet was huge!
A Birthday Surprise, sure to delight
By Marguerite McGrath
from Wexford Ireland
Good AfternoonI ordered a bouquet for my Aunt's 70th Birthday. This lady never receives flowers delivered to her door so I thought it would be a nice surprise. The bouquet was delivered on the date requested. For the cost of the bouquet it was great value. A futher added value was the vase the flowers came in. My aunt was extremely thrilled to receive this beautiful bouquet. I would be delighted to recommend Interflora to others and will definitely be using them again.Regards and many thanksMarguerite McGrath

shrunk in transit
By jakey
from ireland
I went for the larger version advertised on website, but due to euro economy in ROI it appeared to have shrunk drastically from the UK version shown. I wished I had waited until my return and driven to Northern Ireland and picked up a boquet from a florist shop to get better value.

There are nearly three months since he took the heavy responsibility to put 63 items of Bupe the street without a trial (without notice or right) and for reasons such as laziness, repeated absences. All things that the victims dispute.
After several unsuccessful attempts with certain administrative, political and religious country, the elements unfairly dismissed from Bupe decided to enter the regional labor, employment and vocational training in the Bamako district, so that it takes place after the mayor of the district for an amicable settlement of disputes.
He estimated that the contracts speak the mayor of the district, plus the fact that they do not fully meet the basic conditions and form of fixed-term contracts were signed by the parties as they had already been recruited from 1 March 2006, ten months ago, by Decision No. 144/Mairie District of Bamako on 27 March 2006.
From this decision, the Labour Regional Director said that, like other elements of Bupe, the 63 victims of a dismissal had acquired the status of holders of permanent contracts covered by Article L 40 Labour Code. Based on the foregoing, the Regional Director of Labour has asked the mayor of the district to reinstate them in their jobs. And failing that, he made two proposals.
Mayor Adama Sangare has the option of agreeing with the applicants of a separation amicably by offering to settle all of their their rights under their contracts on 1 March 2006. It also has the opportunity to engage at the regional labor dismissal proceedings against the 63 elements of Bupe, if the facts alleged against them are verifiable and it seems serious enough to reach such a solution.

Migraines & Headaches Health Center
Headache Prevention: Posture and Body Mechanics - Topic Overview
Good posture and body mechanics
Good posture and the way you move your body can help prevent tension in your neck, shoulders, and upper back muscles. If your headaches seem to be related to tension in this area, be aware of your posture and position during daily activities. This may help prevent headaches.
Use good body mechanics all the time, not just when you have a headache or back pain.
Recommended Related to Migraines/Headaches
Since it is brief, the vision loss of ocular migraines is not usually treated. But you may need relief for the headache that accompanies or follows it. The primary treatment for ocular migraines is to reduce exposure to triggers. Calcium-channel blockers are the main drug treatment for ocular migraines. They work by relaxing the blood vessels. One example is Cardene, which can be given as a pill or as a tab you put under the tongue.
Read the Ocular Migraine Treatment article > >
- Keep your back in the neutral position.
- Sit straight in your chair with your lower back supported.
- Take breaks once an hour to stretch your neck and back muscles.
- Adjust your computer monitor so that the top of the screen is at eye level. Use a document holder to keep copy at the same level as the screen.
- If you use the telephone a lot, think about using a headset or speakerphone. Do not cradle the headset between your shoulder and your ear.
- Make sure that your work surface is at a comfortable level. Avoid reaching up or down to your work.
- When standing for long periods of time, stand with one foot on a small stool. When lifting, lift with your legs, not your neck or back.
- Avoid exercises that require hyperextension of the neck, such as bike riding.

Lancashire and the Peaks Sights
Manchester Cathedral
Manchester Cathedral Review
The city's sandstone cathedral, set beside the River Irwell and originally a medieval parish church dating in part from the 15th century, is unusually broad for its length and has the widest medieval nave in Britain. Inside, angels with gilded instruments look down from the roof of the nave, and misericords (the undersides of choristers' seats) in the early 16th-century choir stalls reveal intriguing carvings. The octagonal chapter house dates from 1485. There are free guided tours daily, year-round.

Cape Town Restaurants
95 Keerom
95 Keerom Review
Chef-owner Giorgio Nava is so passionate about using only the finest ingredients that he catches his own fish and farms his own beef. Diners will be hard-pressed to find better Milanese cuisine. The paper-thin beef carpaccio "95" is drizzled with homemade mayonnaise and topped with fresh arugula and Parmesan shavings. When Nava manages to catch tuna, he serves it seared with cherry tomatoes, capers, and olives. The butternut-squash-filled ravioli with brown sage butter is sublime, and the soft-centered chocolate soufflé is the benchmark for every other. With its bentwood chairs, the upstairs interior is Eames-inspired; downstairs, the exposed stone reveals the building's ancient history, which began in 1682.

... struggling big time but he managed to get through it.
Marc introduced Sean and the boys in great style, the sound and lights at this place are amazing and the band sounded great. Sean got a fantastic reception from the crowd and played really well a really proud moment for Deb and I for sure. A truly great experience for him and one for which I know he is very thankful.
After the gig we all went back to Little Long Beach Bar for a small good bye ...
Castle, concert and cruising

We used out JR passes one last time to go to Namba station. Here we saw some young women practicing their formation dancing (see video) and went back to Shinsaibashi, which was incredibly busy - must be because it is the weekend.

Well it turned out that they all had some semblance of understanding, although one only had two words of English - which were a baffling, and suggestive, 'try me' said at appropriate points of the conversation. I was invited in. Now, with my luggage and me included, the bar was packed!

I think this hostel was easily the worst I've ever stayed in. The fella who runs the place is absolutely wonderful – really helpful and pleasant, but the place was such a dive....we were so glad to be leaving early the next morning to catch our flight to ...
Next I went to Osaka. As in other places I've stayed at, my bed here was a thin but comfy mattress on a wicker mat floor.
I found a castle, which I was told would be "impossible" to walk to. When I informed my adviser that I would be attempting the walk anyway, the last thing they called after me was "be careful". I was careful and I did achieve the ...

A company within the sector that fell today was Nidec Corporation (NJ), up 1.5%.TheStreet would like to highlight 5 stocks pushing the sector higher today:5. Cummins (CMI) is one of the companies pushing the Industrial Goods sector higher today. As of noon trading, Cummins is up $0.90 (0.7%) to $139.56 on light volume. Thus far, 212,450 shares of Cummins exchanged hands as compared to its average daily volume of 1.4 million shares. The stock has ranged in price between $138.13-$139.73 after having opened the day at $138.55 as compared to the previous trading day's close of $138.66. Cummins Inc. designs, manufactures, distributes, and services diesel and natural gas engines, and engine-related component products. It operates in four segments: Engine, Components, Power Generation, and Distribution. Cummins has a market cap of $25.8 billion and is part of the industrial industry. Shares are up 28.0% year to date as of the close of trading on Monday. Currently there are 7 analysts that rate Cummins a buy, no analysts rate it a sell, and 5 rate it a hold.TheStreet Ratings rates Cummins as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, increase in stock price during the past year, increase in net income and notable return on equity. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company shows weak operating cash flow.

A Schuyler man is dead following a crash on Route 6 in Albemarle County.
Investigators say Randolph Wood Junior, 35, was killed when his pick-up truck veered off the road and struck a tree. It happened just before 11 p.m. Thursday, near Paces Store Road in Esmont.
Two lanes of Route 6 were closed for nearly three hours.
The crash remains under investigation, but speed was likely a factor.
Albemarle County Police Department Press Release
The Albemarle County Police Department is investigating a fatal crash that occurred on Thursday, April 17th at 10:46 p.m.
An older model Ford pickup truck was traveling west in the 3100 block of Irish Road. The vehicle drove off the right side of the highway and struck a tree head-on. The driver, Randolph Wood Jr., died at the scene as a result of the crash. He was 35 years old from Schuyler, Virginia in Albemarle County. Wood was the only occupant in the vehicle at the time of the crash.
Speed is likely a causation factor but the crash remains under investigation by the Crash Reconstruction Team. This is the second fatal crash this year in Albemarle County. There were 11 fatal crashes in 2013.

I see this game Aram but, I dont know what it is , if someone would be kind enough to explain it to me so I can learn to play it, please?
Senior Member
Here, let me google that for you.
don't tell him. There is nothing more despicable than people who are so lazy that they have to get other people to do their research for them.
It's good to both inform and explain! Some people aren't as computer or research saavy as others. And everyone derps here and there. :-P
apparently people think i's so wrong to ask questions about a game type in that forums section, I swear people have been using the "let me google that" link too much

Dr. Britt Westbourne, or Britch, as she is known, started working at General Hospital in 2011. Many would say that was a dark day. Certainly Patrick Drake, Sabrina Santiago, and Felix Dubois would say so, as well as Elizabeth Spencer. "Britch" set her sights on Patrick Drake and, realizing that Sabrina was interested in him, did her best to discredit the nurse. Britt finally nabbed Patrick in the shower.
Unfortunately, due to her miserable attitude toward Patrick's beloved daughter, Emma, Patrick broke it off. Try as she might, Britt couldn't get back into Emma's good graces.
The night of the Nurse's Ball, while Patrick was on stage making a speech, Britt interrupted and announced she was pregnant with Patrick's child.
Britt's High-Profile Parents
It took some time -- in fact, it took months -- but we learned a little something of Britt's background. Turns out it's something out of Rosemary's Baby. Her mother is Dr. Liesl Obrecht, a physician who currently is holding Robin at her Swiss clinic. Dr. O lost her license for experimenting on live patients. She was, in fact, working on an antidote for a toxin that infected Jerry Jacks and Luke Spencer.
Britt's father is one of the scariest men alive -- Cesar Faison! So one can either look at Britt as the spawn of two devils and one herself, or as a pathetic human being under the thumb of amoral, strong people.
It's beginning to seem as if we're supposed to start looking upon Britt as a sad case. The only problem is, she can't tell the truth unless she thinks she's lying. She just told Patrick that Brad is the father of her baby. Not true.
Going after Patrick was perhaps Mommy Dearest Obrecht's idea, since it seems this whole plot -- the kidnapping of Robin, having Faison disguise himself as Duke while Duke was held hostage at the clinic, telling Patrick he's about to become a father -- it all has to do with Cesar's obsession with Anna Devane and with Robin. But the final piece of the puzzle hasn't yet hit the table.
Kelly Thiebaud
As for the actress who plays her, 28-year-old Kelly Thiebaud is a gorgeous woman with a body to die for. She began as a model in commercials, modeled overseas, and appeared in music videos for David Guetta before turning to an acting career. Previous to landing the role of Britt on General Hospital, Thiebaud appeared on Days of Our Lives, Castle, Criminal Minds, and appeared in two short films, Duplex, and The Time, and a film, Hostel: Part III. She also played the role of Karlee on several episodes of The Secret Life of the American Teenager.
The Time was shot in two days and was entered into the Los Angeles 48 Hour Film Festival. It won runner-up at the festival and Thiebaud was runner-up for best actress. She has an upcoming feature film, Grace Unplugged, starring A.J. Michalka and Desperate Housewives hunk James Denton. In Grace Unplugged, she plays a pop star trying to further her career.
Private Life
In her private life, Thiebaud is interested in the cause of the homeless, and to that end, she does everything from give loose change to doling out food at a shelter at Thanksgiving. For fun, she's currently dating Bryan Craig, who plays the bratty Morgan on GH.
The beautiful actress loves playing a meanie with redeeming qualities on GH, and hopes to do a lot more acting in the future, particularly in films. Because of her athleticism, she would especially love to be involved in action films.
For now, though, she's our Britt or Britch, who's just had someone's baby and may be headed toward a relationship with Nikolas. We'll see what Mommy Obrecht has to say about that.

Arthur J. Gallagher & Co.'s (AJG) first-quarter profit jumped 44% as the insurance broker and consulting firm posted stronger commissions and fees revenues, though expenses rose as well.

Fear of losing a thing can have a very profound effect on how you regard it. Taking something for granted can evaporate as soon as fear inspires a scenario to play thru your mind. Whether it comes from a dream in the night, a sudden reflective moment, an errant thought, or a serious contemplation, fear wants to be entertained. We battle it every day on some level. Without it we would be less human.
When my alarm went off this morning I have no idea what I might have been dreaming. It was one of those episodes that failed to leave much in my lucid train of thoughts. Out of the fog a few lines of words formed and I toyed with them, mentally as I began my day. Later, I wrote a new lyric based those waking moments.
In retrospect, (mere moments in fact), there were hard questions that I must have been asking myself in that dream. The story the lyric tells is of a person in a post apocalyptic world. The love of their life is gone and the emptiness in their heart is a tragic pain that overshadows the situation. The story is told as if to the departed loved one.
What would I do without my main muse? If we all have to switch into survival mode, how will she fair? How can I protect her? I have no clear answers to any of these questions. Those are bridges I hope I never have to cross. The future grows cloudier each day.
There was a time when humans dreamed of a grand future. It felt like utopia was well within our reach. We were blinded by our vision and never saw the whole world. Now that there are few places we cannot get the news from in real-time, we see how complicated the planet really is. Various systems of belief jostle one another for control of 'everything'. Each professes to be the 'right' way for humans to exist. Some spawn putrid splinters that seek to erase the very existence of everything that does not conform to a twisted vision of how all mankind should be.
We'd laid a good highway to the future we believed in. We got on the road and set the cruise control. With the windows down and the radio blasting we smiled at each other and trusted the road to get us there. Our sleek machine carried us well and fine upgrades piled on the velocity.
Somewhere ahead of us on that ribbon of tarmac, there was supposed to be a tunnel thru a mountain. When came upon it we could see the future gleaming from the far end. We had long ago forgotten who was supposed to have built the tunnel. We found out way too late who painted the scenery on the solid rock wall we plowed into.
Our transport to utopia shattered, we dusted off what was left of ourselves and went in search of the next section of road. There were many in the wilderness who claimed to know the way and they were eager to share their knowledge, for a price. We were told we could get there but not by our own beliefs. If we would but become believers in their ways, the future was just over the next hill. Some of us relented, some did not. These fellow humans, strange as they were, seemed to readily adopt our beliefs, that is, until we turned our back just a bit. Our trust got us many knives in our back. We slowly grew tired of being surprised.
We girded ourselves for a long arduous haul. True believers of all faiths became tentative companions along the way. Radical extremists became the enemy of all mankind. The only problem with the radicals was that they hid in plain sight. They blended in. We secretly entertained the thought of genocide but resolved resolutely not to repeat inhumanities of the past. We tied our fingers behind our backs one at a time.
And so we struggle ever forward towards a future we are not truly sure exists. We've found what was left of the road. Potholes and shattered grade have greeted us continually. Whole sections from horizon to horizon are gone. There are wash-outs along flat and straight expanses. Our feet hurt and we keep tripping on obstacles. We keep tripping on things in plain sight.
We can see no glow from the future but we keep faith that it is there waiting, in whatever state it has been reduced to. Deep in our hearts we know we can give it a respectable luster when we get there.
Who knows how many of us will get there? Make good memories of those around you every day. If you reach that grand future with those memories each and every one you share will be celebrated intensely.

I've got a friend who's Kindle wont connect to her home wireless router but will connect to other wireless routers that she has tried.
Other hardware such as my laptop will connect to her home router so I know it's working ok.
Any ideas please?

Make sure you are transmitting your SSID through your router.
Also make sure that if you are using MAC address filtering turn it off until you get a connection and then update your list with the new device.
If these don't work then what router are you using? Give us the make and model number.

The competitor omits 1 element. Does he violate the patent? Example 2: the patent protects the construction of a pill. There are 3 "balls" (spheres) which seem to be necessary (the first holds pharmaceutical, the second: protect this first, the third: taste (eg. orange). The competitor managed to eliminate the second sphere. Does he violate the patent? Scope of protection – 5 Indirect protection of invention 1. The subject matter of a patent is a process for obtaining a product. 2.

In country "B" (where there is no patent protection of the process) the chemical compound "X" is produced, but not in crystalline but in amorphous (i.e. non-crystalline) form.

His fun-loving ways and his infectious smile are qualities we love in a model almost as much as his other great qualities. Namely his fat, muscular cock and his virgin bubble butt. In this scene Gill gave us plenty of both.

In a joint press release, US companies InTouch Health and iRobot have announced a new telepresence robot for hospitals. The robot called "RP-VITA" builds on iRobot's AVA platform introduced at last year's Consumer Electronics Show. Similar to the AVA, the RP-VITA uses a tablet as the user interface and has autonomous mapping and navigation capabilities. The RP-VITA can also connect with diagnostic devices, such as otoscopes and ultrasound, and comes equipped with the latest electronic stethoscope. The robot is currently pending clearance by the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA), with results expected in the last quarter of 2012.

Freedom of religion, not freedom from religion. 8mons ago from a Republican in Ketchikan, AK.
ABSOLUTELY NO!!!! We were founded at a Christian nation and should continue. 7mons ago from a Republican in Lowell, MA.
Oh, eternal and everlasting God, direct my thoughts, words and work. Wash away my sins in the immaculate blood of the Lamb and purge my heart by Thy Holy Spirit. Daily, frame me more and more in the likeness of Thy son, Jesus Christ, that living in Thy fear, and dying in Thy favor, I may in thy appointed time obtain the resurrection of the justified unto eternal life. Bless, O Lord, the whole race of mankind and let the world be filled with the knowledge of Thee and Thy son, Jesus Christ. - George Washington We have this day [Fourth of July] restored the Sovereign to whom all men ought to be obedient. He reigns in Heaven, and from the rising to the setting of the sun, let His Kingdom come. - Samuel Adams Congress printed a Bible for America and said: "The United States in Congress assembled … recommend this edition of the Bible to the inhabitants of the United States … a neat edition of the Holy Scriptures for the use of schools." - United States Congress 1782 Congress passed this resolution: "The Congress of the United States recommends and approves the Holy Bible for use in all schools." - United States Congress 1782 There is no such thing as separation of Church and state, no where can it be found in the founding documents. It was made up by a bigoted judge on the U.S. Spreme Court. 8mons ago from a Republican in Lakemore, OH.
Yes - this nation was not and is not a Christian nation. Pursuant to the 1st Amendment, there is no established faith for the USA; ergo, any references to God in or on government property or currency should be removed. 7mons ago from a Libertarian in Albuquerque, NM.
Since what we have now is actually a part of the history of our country, it should be left as is, however, adding anything in the future would clearly be a violation of the separation of church and state. 7mons ago from a Libertarian in Billings, MT.
America was founded by Christians, and just because we let foreigners move here that don't hold our current stances doesn't make it right for them to take away ours. If this were the case then we shouldn't allow other churches within the state, period. Besides it would cost too much to completely redo everything just to appease people with opposite opinion. If there's one thing I've learned is there is always more than one view to life and if others can not accept that then they don't belong here. Obviously we are trying to promote that but it is a part of our history and it maintains the idea that we stand for the good of all things. 7mons ago from a Democrat in Belleville, IL.
Give to Caesar what is Caesar's. Christ was very clear about this. If one religious creed is accepted, then where is the free speech to others who also want to be accepted. Leave what currently stands, but exclude from future. Let religious organizations keep God in their monuments. 7mons ago from a Democrat in Sun City, AZ.
Tough question. Christianity is a large part of our national heritage and I don't think it should be swept under the rug as if it is shameful. However, the First Amendment exists for a reason, and no one should be forced to share in a faith they don't hold. 8mons ago from a Republican in Coppell, TX.
I dont really care, just as long it doesnt seem that we are a country run by a religion. 7mons ago from a Green in Miami, FL.
No, as long as they don't say that all the other religions have to believe in God. Some People just get to offended. 7mons ago from a Democrat in Winder, GA.
It dont matter. 7mons ago from a Democrat in York, PA.
No because it's been there for a long time and hasn't hurt anyone prior to now. 7mons ago from a Democrat in Garden City, ID.
Religious freedom is a must in this country. Although many common religions even non Christian based, praise a for of God, it is never in the same light as the Christian version the US projects. This practice only alienates those who do not believe in the same form of God or have no God at all. 7mons ago from a Democrat in Altamonte Springs, FL.
If they were placed there at the time the monument was erected then that is part of the original architecture and design and should not be messed with. Anything new unless it is a memorial, which the memorial can include religious references, should not have it there. And on the currency did not start until the 1950's so take it off of there. 7mons ago from a Democrat in Duluth, GA.
Yes, have and keep separation of church and state. 7mons ago from a Libertarian in Jefferson, OR.
No - we have more important things to worry about for the immediate future. 7mons ago from a Republican in Eugene, OR.
No, because taxpayers money going toward the removal of "references" is frivolous. 7mons ago from a Democrat in Everett, WA.
I just think this is politically impossible to achieve. 7mons ago from a Green in Springfield, MO.
Everything but the national monuments, which are monuments of history, which may include references to God because the references are part of history. 7mons ago from a Libertarian in Potwin, KS.
I am torn because I believe that we were brought up on separation, with people believing in different gods, but than I also think that Taking down monuments and other things that represent god is a bad idea because it has been their for so long. 7mons ago from a Democrat in Seattle, WA.
It is fiat anyway so what would God care and why should we even use these FRN's that enslave us? It is the biggest FRAUD in history!. 8mons ago from a Republican in New Freedom, PA.
Yes if they are going to separate church and state then they need to do that completely not when it benefits them. 8mons ago from a Democrat in Seattle, WA.
Does it really matter? Get over it people. 8mons ago from a Democrat in Fosterville, TN.
It doesn't hurt me so I don't care. 8mons ago from a Democrat in Warrensburg, MO.
Take it off of our money but on everything else is should remain the same. And it should not be removed from anything else. 8mons ago from a Republican in Spokane, WA.
Yes, to aspects of government. Forms of art and such should be allowed because of freedom of artistic expression. 8mons ago from a Democrat in Ypsilanti, MI.
Yes, I am religious, but don't want the government to privilege even my views. 8mons ago from a Democrat in Hobart, IN.
No, these buildings, monuments, and other aspects of government are historical landmarks, and shouldn't be defiled because some pussy has his feelings hurt. 8mons ago from a Libertarian in Roachdale, IN.
No. Respect for God's laws will result in national success. "Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is [i.e., brings God's] reproach to any people." -- Solomon. Unfortunately many U.S. citizens consider themselves to be wiser than Solomon. 8mons ago from a Republican in Potwin, KS.
Yes, but leave references in place where it is a part of the original structure. 8mons ago from a Democrat in Carlsborg, WA.

It takes a Village Green Preservation Society to love The Kinks.
The problem facing The Kinks when they released The Village Green Preservation Society in late November 1968 wasn't merely the competition-- Jimi Hendrix's Electric Ladyland, Led Zeppelin's debut, and the Rolling Stones' Beggars Banquet offered plenty-- but that this subtle, funny, surreal, and at times almost tender record could have been recorded on another planet. During the summer of 1968, stateside fans were hooked on a high-intensity diet that had them jonesing for aggressive, overstated fare like "Street Fighting Man" and "You Shook Me" and "Communication Breakdown". The disconnect between The Kinks and the rock world's rapidly narrowing palette could hardly have been more pronounced. Compare the Stones' bombastic, urban "Sympathy for the Devil" with understated work like "Village Green", bouncing along like a horse and buggy as Ray Davies paints the landscape: "Out in the country, far from all the soot and noise of the city..."
Critics praised the album, the public ignored it, and Davies-- surveying the scene-- asserted that it wasn't created for public consumption. Intentions aside, The Kinks simply moved on, leaving small knots of fans to pledge secret allegiance to Village Green. However, as years passed and the weather changed, its following grew, and finally, one day, the verdict reversed and the album was touted as a masterpiece. Ironically, it might have happened sooner had the band not been so prolific up through the late 80s.
Intricately sketched and brimming with unusual arrangements, The Village Green Preservation Society was the first clear look at an iconoclastic, imaginative and sometimes brilliant artist as he came into his own. Audiences used to sizing up work on a scale created for rock gods and counter-culture icons were forced to consider this album as a piece of conceptual art. The Lennon-McCartney/Jagger-Richards duos towered over and shaped the sensibilities of a vast army; Davies explored a deeply personal world that confounded fans even as it provoked their curiosity.
There's a clue to who he was in the song "Animal Farm", which opens with a cascade of chords played on a warm, acoustic 12-string, the folk music staple once used on songs like the Rooftop Singers' 1963 hit "Walk Right In". Davies' opening lines, forced to share space with the tongue filling his cheek, are a mouthful. "This world is big and wild and half insane/ Take me where the animals are playing," he sings, raising the Union Jack, while looking back through the chaos of the day to find a simpler, safer world.
The peculiar sensibility that first raised its head on 1965's Kinkdom with the hit singles "Dedicated Follower and Fashion" and "A Well Respected Man" looks different in light of The Village Green Preservation Society. Before the latter album was released, those songs seemed like parody or blue-collar humor; in retrospect, Davies was showing a quirky, iconoclastic hand that would soon be more relevant to his music than the hard-rocking "You Really Got Me". It's also interesting to consider Village Green as a carefully sculpted product of Ray Davies' singular artistic vision. The album is commonly regarded as having the feel of solo work, and if this is a matter of opinion, the songs are singular enough as to probably make collaboration difficult. More than that, at a time when rock instrumentalists were beginning to stretch out, The Kinks' playing here always serves the songs, and Davies' vocals in particular.
By 1968, as the prevailing rock idiom tended to position music as an armored vehicle ready for battle, Davies did his best work with a quiet, ironic smile. The album-opening title cut begins with a simple groove built around acoustic guitars, over which Davies offers a bend pledge of allegiance to the mundane curiosities of modern life; in "Do You Remember Walter", he reminisces, perhaps as a geriatric adult; and on "Last of the Steam Powered Trains", he borrows and bends the first few bars of Willie Dixon's "Spoonful"-- an ode to the miseries of heroin.
The Village Green Preservation Society has been declared the band's masterwork in some quarters, and I'll agree-- if only because my favorite Kinks album, built around "You Really Got Me", "All Day and All of the Night" and "Tired of Waiting for You", has never been released. Even so, the album had received proper recognition long before the release of this three-disc set, which repackages the original album and adds a slew of extras: Bonus tracks are here in spades, along with a collection of period studio noodlings and a separate mono version of the entire LP.
Of course, while the special presentation does include a few interesting pieces-- looser non-album tracks like the humorous "Mich Avery's Underpants", "King Kong" and "Wonderboy", while hardly worth the price of this set, offer added insight into the album's sessions-- it's mostly padded by mono mixes that would be of little interest to anyone but the staunchest archivists. As such, disc one, the original album expanded with four bonus tracks (including a knockout version of "Days") provides the real meat: 36 years after its first release, The Village Green Preservation Society, loaded with so much imagination and possibility, stands more than ever as a vital work, and as one of rock's first classic, one-of-a-kind albums.
