Something UPPED The Ante

Thanks so much for that lovely message about being a much better ME than I am. Crack on. This is WAAAAAY beyond normal mental illness. This IS DEMONIC Copycat in full swing. I’d just go out in the garden and use the chainsaw on myself. If I was that bovvered about stuff that has happened […]

Never Going Back Again

This video shows the utterly impeccable joining of two voices and talents. Though no longer a pair, these two will always be remembered for their UNFORGETTABLE contribution to music. In MY Opinion :o) Lindsey wrote this song. It’s about being hurt too many times to ever stay there. NEVER Going Back Again.

A Visit to NE France : Lorraine… Aujourd’hui

I’m overloaded with Vicky eggs. She bought me another dozen yesterday – fresh from her chickens. So, I’ve gone all French. Quiche Lorraine for tea. But done MY way (!) Oh. Jehanne d’Arc was from Lorraine too. Maybe she ate this way back in the early 1400’s. Before she was burned at the stake ? […]

Bucking the Establishment

Although the scene was very different from the one below, me & she did the same kind of nonsense to a Royal Arab Prince in Abu Dhabi. Well. His Highness should NEVER have asked the board-meeting where they wanted to go and what they wanted to eat. I chose Italian and she chose a palace. […]

The Dead of Jericho

For once, the TV series led me to the books. I adore John Thaw and Kevin Whately and this whole series. I’ve also read all of Colin Dexter’s books. This is the first book and the first programme. “The Dead of Jericho” is the first instalment of the Inspector Morse TV series starring John Thaw and Kevin Whately (as Detective Sergeant Lewis). Colin Dexter also […]

J.C’s Funniest Moments on The FARM.

I had no idea. We’ve only watched the first 3 chapters of 8. Apparently : A STAR IS BORN. He’s 21 years old. Went to London once with the school and never got off the coach. He’s travelled as far as Banbury and that was enough. And he now has a squillion admirers on tok-tik-aGram. […]

Citrine : The Merchant’s Stone

Those born in November are lucky enough to have two stunning gems as their birthstones. One is topaz, which comes in a variety of colours, and the other is sunny citrine. Citrine is the yellow variety of quartz, and its name comes from the Old French word for lemon. Its warm colour is said to […]

Urbex Revisited

For the first time in many months, I’ve returned to BWT. These lads were always my favourites. An Abandoned WWI Cemetery and Chapel…somewhere in Germany.

Mistaken Identity

Y’all cast me as Ophelia. MAD Ophelia. So grief stricken that she’d end her own life. “There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance; pray, love, remember; and there is pansies, that’s for thoughts…There’s fennel for you, and columbines; there’s rue for you, and here’s some for me; we may call it herb of grace o’ Sundays. O, […]

Three Act Tragedy : The Heroine is called EGG!

BTW, sweet reviewer below…Poirot is BELGIAN not French. FACT. And he’s always very annoyed when he’s called French. P.S. The image above is a quote from Death on the Nile. For ME, David Suchet IS Poirot.

Raul Malo : The Mavericks

I’ve done this before here. I used to play the album when I had housewifey jobs to do like the ironing or cleaning or cooking or J Edgar Hoovering. BTW – In the UK it’s called a Hoover. Not a Vacuum Cleaner. Thank God…… Space is a Vacuum ? Go to Ripley’s Believe It or […]
