“Run from what’s comfortable. Forget safety. Live where you fear to live. Destroy your reputation. Be notorious. I have tried prudent planning long enough. From now on I’ll be mad.”
I seem to be having a #FUNNY day today. It was raining stair rods (colloquial Northern saying) all last night and the leaky roof may’ve been overwhelmed. Again. Then I watch a video about Mr Poe. Then THIS/THESE turn up. As I said. A “funny” day }:o) Fair Warning – The next M&W video in […]
MS Media says that the Stone of Scone was recovered by 1953, just in time for B. Windsor to be crowned. Uurm. Some disagree with this (!!) And if you know the history of The Stone of Destiny aka Jacob’s Pillow aka The Stone of Scone – you’ll understand the significance of this. How many […]
Weird video but interesting. I have a love/don’t like relationship with Poe. Murders in the Rue Morgue (imho) is just plain silly. “Once upon a midnight dreary” The Raven is sublime. The Fall of the House of Usher is wonderfully creepy etc etc. But marrying a 12/13 year cousin…THAT is not very nice :o( Strange […]
Struth! My lot are a bunch of bloody comedians. Laugh a minute here this morning. We can’t do a crossword together ever since that “Fateful” day, a few years back, when the clue was … What flightless bird shares the same name as the New Zealand Rugby Team? And the answer shouted out – quick […]
I KNEW there was a link between the songs below. So I double checked. Yadawhatever. Blah! It just HAD to be another KATE/Catherine. P.S. I can name names of yt chans aka LOVESHACKS but…… Sigh! Moving on.
I really love this film. Despite everything! For some strange reason (shrug) I found myself in a conversation this morning with someone who has been “researching” Edward I (Longshanks) and is now of the opinion that he was a thoroughly good bean after all. Mmmn! I might’ve grown up a bit and mastered my hair […]
The last was a bit dour. MY Bad :o( P.S. I once announced that I was going to join Swampy and gang on the Newbury Bypass. We lived not so far away at the time. All I got was… I FORBID YOU! Pout.
To everyone else it looks like I’m having a lazy day today. This is the last of this channel’s videos that I’ve watched over the past few days. The first 2 or 3 I cut short of the last half hour’s ramble but I’ve since learned that I was wrong to do this. To my […]
My FAVE girl in the world promised me a week or so ago that she’d make the trip from Wales to come and see me. End of July. Beginning of August time. Ha! Got you my Travel Partner around the World in Crime. So there. So fair! It’s been far too long (stupid fake bug!) […]
Dynamo We used to watch him a lot. He ALWAYS credited his granddad for teaching him the skills after Stephen’s childhood of bullying and illness and pain. Wow. And I don’t care HOW he did his “tricks.” I just love his triumph over pain. And if you watch him at Christ the Redeemer, it’ll blow […]
