A LITTLE LESS CHAPEL. A LITTLE MORE GEOFF.
This page is not part of the main Chapel of Letus Salata website.
HELLO, AND WELCOME
I’ve enjoyed looking at other people’s personal pages, so I thought I would make one of my own. These are a few of my favourite things. You may have different favourites, which is perfectly reasonable as I'm probably quite a bit older than most of you.
I'd appreciate it if you didn't tell Glyn or Stephen that you have found this secret page; I have already been warned about improper use of chapel resources and I'm sure they wouldn't approve of this.
Geoff — the person who does the website
RECORDS I COME BACK TO
No music starts automatically on this page. I find that very irritating on other websites. Please do have a listen if you haven't heard any of these before.
Glen Campbell · 1968
One of those records you stop what you’re doing to listen to.
Dire Straits · 1978
I always mean to turn this down and then don’t.
Gerry Rafferty · 1978
Particularly good on the way home.
The Kinks · 1967
A whole little world in one song.
Supertramp · 1979
Still sounds good. I have checked.
“Listen” opens a YouTube search in a new tab. You can keep this page open.
The most beautiful car I have ever seen, but, apparently they have a tendency to catch fire. I have had a model of a yellow Miura on my desk for over a decade.
The modern 2016-19 version. An accessible Italian sportscar.
Good visibility, a proper boot and very little effort to disguise what it is.

I don’t mind knowing what happens. Sometimes that is part of the appeal.
NOTHING IS QUITE AS IT SEEMS
Jim Carrey as a man beginning to suspect that his ordinary life has been arranged for somebody else’s benefit.
TROUBLE IN SWANSEA
Rhys and Llŷr Ifans, petty crime and a dispute that gets considerably out of hand. A very dark Welsh comedy.
A CHANGE OF SCENERY
Eddie Murphy as a prince who travels to Queens to find somebody who likes him without knowing he is a prince.
A PROPER ADVENTURE
A treasure map, underground tunnels and a group of children trying to save their homes.
GETTING LOST
David Bowie as the Goblin King, Jennifer Connelly and a labyrinth full of extraordinary creatures.
AN UNWISE ROAD TRIP
Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels attempt to return a briefcase. Their enthusiasm considerably exceeds their judgement.
A DIFFERENT KIND OF RECRUITMENT
A young Londoner is put through the selection process for a secret spy organisation. Colin Firth is his rather well-dressed mentor.
INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS
An action-film satire performed by puppets. Spectacular destruction, very little restraint and absolutely not for children.
AN UNLIKELY PARTNERSHIP
Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder as a blind man and a deaf man caught up in a murder investigation.
I’ve seen people collecting quotations on their websites. Here are a few observations of my own.
“I do not always need the last word, but I do need the last word to be accurate.”
Geoff Thomas
“Unreachable global numbers; reachable neighbours.”

Buildings, lanes and things you would otherwise walk past. It’s good to have a reason to look properly.
A paper map, a road I haven’t tried, and enough time to stop if something looks interesting.
I remember enjoying Max Payne. There is room on the computer for things other than Chapel business.
These are the mobile games I’m playing at the moment. I stopped playing and deleted Headball 2 as it got too much. Sideswipe is going the same way, 'What a Save'.
