Sir Derek Jacobi Meets Fans Outside Theatre In London 4.06.2016
The Battle of Jutland ~ or the Battle of the Skagerrak, as it was known to the Germans ~ engaged a total of 100,000 men aboard 250 ships over the course of 72 hours. The naval battle fought by the British Royal Navy's Grand Fleet under Admiral Sir John Jellicoe, against the Imperial German Navy's High Seas Fleet under Vice-Admiral Reinhard Scheer during the First World War. The battle was fought from 31 May to 1 June 1916 in the North Sea, near the coast of Denmark's Jutland Peninsula.

I'm not growing younger and
It's a short drive through an accident
I'm not sure when we'll get there
Just be patient
Oxygen waning
But someday well have to fight for air
Devoted too easy
In loveless affairs
I have a feeling Colorado air's too high for breathing now
I quit when I was 30
I quit when my baby girl was born
I quit again at 40
Bells ...new year farewell
The drag on the next one
Is something I can look forward to
Something to slow the synapse
Something to do with my hands
I have a feeling Colorado air's too high for breathing now
