The Red Shoes
I’ve said many times that I grew up on Myth & Legend and Fairytales. I read and re-read my Mum’s collection of Grimm and HCA. The Red Shoes? Folktales have been used for generations to teach moral tales to children. They have shifted over time depending upon the generation and location of the tale but […]
Read MoreCOLD CASE Detective
I’ve watched every single one of these. A COLD CASE is a police term for an unsolved crime aka They Got Away With Murder! Some people, when never caught in their F1RST crime, will escalate their twisted and strange fetishes until the day they die. And when they die? Are they happy that they were […]

Read MoreChocolate Mint Nettles?
Yes. I admit it. I threw a right old Paddy this morning. And kicked out at the nettles behind the old pig-sty. Bastard Nettles. And then…I suddenly smelled Chocolate Mint. Then oranges. Yummy Distraction. Way No Way. The chocolate and -AND – the orange mint that I’d planted there about 8 years ago were still […]
Read MoreBirds Are Messengers
Odin (Norse Mythology) had two Ravens (Crows : Corvus Family) called Hugin and Munin. Thought and Memory in English. Sad News. Our new Jakey II didn’t survive the night. Although he had no visible injuries, the trauma of whatever had happened was too much. SAD :o( P.S. WHY IS ODIN’S RIGHT EYE MISSING? Answers lie […]
Read MoreOlives
There are certain people with whom I love travelling abroad. Because I’m sour and salty by nature (!!!) I ALWAYS go for the olives over the sweeter table snacks. FACT! I’ve never heard of Epityrum before though. Is it like my much loved Spanish Tapenade? Greek History (?)

Read MoreRats & Gargoyles : Mary Gentle 1990
I adore Mary’s books. This is now a story encased in a huge volume called WHITE CROW. It is a nameless city somewhere between past and future, a mythic realm at the “heart of the world,” where wicked Rat Lords have reduced all humankind to slaves, and god-daemons make the decision to end all existence. […]

For some strange reason, I’m on a Virginia Woolf vibe. I’d fill my pockets with stones and rocks and walk into our pond BUT : I’m due at a Friends & Family Barbecue next week :o)

OMG… On Thursday, June 10 at 11.52am, the Gemini New Moon Solar Eclipse … There is always a 4 day buffer. Four days before & four days after. And My past 4 days have been strange to the point of bizarre. We have just become parents again. Another unfledged Crow to nurture. Another Jakey. As we have neither […]
