GB 28th of August 2019 : Not JUST i & j I have ZERO respect for any Social Engineer who is STILL promoting the i & j stuff. What? Why? So last year and the year before and the year before that. Move On ? OR – LEARN EXACTLY what those 2 little letters really […]
I love Acrostics. I can do them but seeing them is much more difficult. There are many reasons why I admire Captain Slow…being sacked from a job for having THAT acrostic printed in a Nationwide Magazine is a perfect example :o) Some times writing is MUCH more fun than talking ! P.S. Beware from now […]
Sometimes two very different people come together to make something soo very beautiful that it lasts forever. Paul Simon wrote this song. But without Art Garfunkel it would NEVER have such a Vast and Long-Lived IMPACT on us all. Just My opinion! P.S. Yet another musical sound that I grew up with, without ever realising […]
Earlier today I DECLARED in public, HERE, that The Bible and The Complete Works of Shakespeare were THE SAME book. Uuuurm. The usual silence. I wasn’t disrespecting either book.

There is not a day that passes when I’m not STUNNED by mine own ignorance! I’d never realised just how much of an influence Kirsty had been on me. GB 4th July 2019 : Eddi and Kirsty I soooo love this song! And I had no idea that KMac was a backing singer for Simple […]
I can this theme as far as it needs to go :o) Crann Tara aka The Fiery Cross was, once upon a time… In Scotland, the fiery cross, known as the Crann Tara, was used as a declaration of war. The sight of it commanded all clan members to rally to the defence of the area. It then became hijacked by….well […]
He is a man. I’m a woman. He is dark-skinned. I am fair-skinned. He is tattooed. I am not. He is #famous. I am not. He speaks. I write. He is American. I am not!!! None of the above matters to me. He does EXACTLY what I do. When we get a download, we upload. […]
I’ve just spent several hours piecing together bits and pieces that I could find from a book referenced everywhere. Suddenly – I come across a picture of the cover of said book and Cuss Loudly. That looks familiar. I rush to my shelves and sure enough, the bloody thing is sat sitting there!!! Oh. I […]
Worse things to do in life, what? Don’t be vile and filthy gutterminds, puhlease. A voice on my ipad in my bed with TWO hot water bottles and a thin duvet, a THICK duvet, a quilted bedcover and my winter dressing gown on top! I’m in heaven :o) I’ve done all the above several times. […]
