Hello

[Hollow Horse]

What to say? I needed some advice so looked for a forum and found here.

Two things are okay. One is I am used to forums and two, this is on Xenforo and both main forums I visit are on the same platform.

My interest are mostly music, sport and I am certainly an animal lover, I have a cat called Duchess.

I am diagnosed with HFA and have a social worker and support worker.

I will now make the post I need to... somewhere.

Oliver.

Hi Hollow Horse

Do you mean the avatar? I just made that.

So my username is a song, by eighties band The Icicle Works.

Funny thing was while I love the song I never had seen the music video ever!

I watched it yesterday and got a bit startled when for the first time I saw the lead singer.

His voice is fairly unusual and to me doesn't fit his looks?

So in the video there is this silhouetted horse and that's what gave me the idea.

I froze the video at the desired point, took a screenshot and then cropped it to size for an avatar.

Here is the music video; the hollow horse can be seen from 02:45 to 03:05

I am glad you like the song; Icicle Works were a good band but their output wasn't that extensive. These are the lyrics:

Be careful what you dream of
It may come up and surprise you
I can't confess my life's a mess
I've come to idolise you
You liken it to walking on hot coals
I'll keep my boots on
Wisen up and fly straight
There's a shape on the horizon

In a hollow horse I'll steal my way
Onside your guarded heart
So selfishly the needs I harbour
When we are apart
My past strung out behind me
Contradiction and disaster
I'm in search of charity
A union I could master

We'll be as we are
When all the fools
Who doubt us fade away
Fortune deep and wide
Intimidated, restless in the wait

Things I chose to value
I no longer have a use for
I ridicule myself for all the things
Those symbols stood for
When vanity has played a part
In every leader's downfall
Wait to storm the gates, what's left
Undone to hang around for

We'll be as we are
When all the fools
Who doubt us fade away
Fortune deep and wide
Intimidated, restless in the wait

As a newbie I am seeing that the time differences between here and the US mean that at a certain period in our day, it will be a bit quieter for reactions and responses / replies.

For example I just typed in "what is the time now in New York" and it says it's nearly 2am!
