@novitiate @Geekmoose How bona to be able to learn about the omis and the palones in the #Polari #bible. Fantabulosa!
I have belatedly got around to noting that I've been talking and listening to some lovely people about interesting things over the past months.
I've heard, for example, a terrific #FolkloreSociety #KatharineBriggs lecture by #KatherineLangrish on stories. I look forward to revisiting it when it finally makes print.
I've also had some lovely chats which have now finally made it into podcasts. I can't quite believe no one's been using a #Polari HT, but my chat with the splendid #PaulBaker on his book about it is now included as part of a @thefolklorepodcast episode.
I also talked (and sang) #cannibalism with the lovely people at Casting Lots: A Survival Cannibalism Podcast, which was a lot of fun.
Links etc are in the blogpost: http://humphreywithhisflail.blogspot.com/2022/11/hello-anybody-there.html

OBSESSED with #RockyHorror, trying to learn and bring back #Polari.
Mines a Red Wine. Or a gin.
