Trains of thought

So there's this b&w film starring Will Hay called "Oh Mr Porter" a cracking comedy. Anyway, early in the film he says Sic Transit Gloria, (latin meaning "Glory Passes"), and I am reminded of the full quote sic transit gloria mundi as in the glories of the world pass, which reminds me of the early Punk/Goth band Gloria Mundi (Eddie Maelov's band), one of whom I am sure played with Generation X, who strangely are missing from the canon of major punk bands, which is strange as they were well connected had an early punk hit with Ready, Steady Go.

So it goes.
