• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

    We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

This brought tears to my eyes. Joni Mitchell sang at the Grammys tonight, for the first time ever despite her remarkable career. And she did so after a near-fatal aneurysm and having to relearn how to speak and sing. This is the whole song, presented from the heart and in a way that gives meaning to the words songwriter. Joni Mitchell, 80, singing "Clouds"

Fantastic song from a fantastic singer/songwriter.

I've looked at clouds from both sides now
from up and down and still somehow
It's cloud's illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all
