The Pretenders

I grew up listening to Chrissie Hynde’s voice.

I could’ve picked any single Pretenders song to make a point.

Today I chose…Precious.

In the UK vernacular, when you call someone PRECIOUS, it is a Huge Insult.

Here, in MY world, it means someone who THINKS that they are “of great value; not to be wasted or treated carelessly.”

Cough. I’ve read JRRRRRRRRRR Tolkein!

In actual fact, Mrs Baggley, my teacher when I was 10 years old, used to close the last half hour of school day with a reading from The Hobbit et al!

Stay Punk?
