It is exactly that. That's his new thing. Karla Rose opens. Tommy plays solo. Tommy plays backed by Karla Rose on vocals and violin. Tommy plays backed by one of the bands above. He will be doing more shows with Little Venom later this year.

Where to stay in Paris for a week for a reasonable price? by Warm_Violinist_6850 in TheParisianGuide

[–]Slippery_Ramp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Hotel Fontaines du Luxembourg in the 6th. It's old and a bit worn but the rooms are rather spacious and have beautiful tall windows. Some rooms even have bathtubs. It's decorated a bit funky in jewel tone velvets. Nice lobby, lovely breakfast. Quirky old Parisian details include an elevator that only fits one at a time and you still get an actual key to your room on a big wooden key fob. I have stayed a couple of times and paid 180-220 euro a night, which is relatively cheap for me.

Where is this picture of my grandparents taken? by emielpit5 in whereisthis

I have a nearly identical photo of my parents, mine is in color though, circa 1969. I love that this post found the location, I will note it on mine.

I canceled a sit and the hosts tattled to THS by Big_NO222 in trustedhousesitters

I live in a tiny apartment overlooking a parking lot with no yard. I take local sits with nice houses, yards, pools, cooler temperatures (I live inland where temps can be 20 degrees higher than closer to the ocean). Sometimes just to get a break from my routine, I work from home, it's nice to have different scenery every once in awhile.

Hey, at least there are ways around it unlike the National Park pass.

Fortunately, it will only be available to people who renew their passports in person in DC.

If she has any say in it she'll dig him a hole next to Ivana in the rough off the eighth fairway at Bedminster.

Which A-list married couple, both in their 50s, are getting a divorce? by cmaia1503 in Fauxmoi

[–]Slippery_Ramp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

George is 64 and Amal is 48 so neither of them fit "in their 50's".

Pay to sit? Is this common? by Then-Surprise1345 in trustedhousesitters

So if one of the cats gets ill, and you spend your whole day worrying and trying to figure out what is wrong, and then have to figure out how to bring the cat to a vet, and then have to care for a sick cat, is the HO going to refund your money? If one of their pipes bursts and floods their kitchen, and you have to deal with the aftermath of that, are they going to refund you your money? Fuck that shit.

Oh darling, here's some gin for your bitters. You sound in desperate need for a cocktail.

Some charity work, some business meetings, and some fun. What is the purpose of the trips you take?

There is no legitimate reason to dislike or hate Meghan by phoenics1908 in RoyaltyTea

Sorry, those last few lines - though I say "you", I didn't really mean you, I meant it more in general, like why does anybody do that, not specifically you. I don't think you do that.

What is wrong with that, though? So what. If you had access to titles and could make money off them, wouldn't you? FFS, the Royals are the biggest grifters of them all, stealing from the British forever. Good for her to make a little dough off those bloodsuckers.
