I might’ve had a giggle yesterday about confusing the household with the kitchen furniture move. But – it just came back and bit me on the arse! I’ve been promising to make this GR Pulled Pork for weeks now and did it today. Eventually ! OK, you silly woman…WTF has happened to the paprika/baking tray/mixing […]
As I’ve said before : the two parts of my family were Scottish Presbyterian and English Methodist. Calvin/Knox vs Wesley! Watching the video below has totally reinforced my own personal choice to NOT do “Religion.” What both denominations share is the very DOUR side of worship. And Baptists are included in that. All reverence and […]

I watched this film when it F1RST came out. Little realising that Keira Knightley and Laurence Fox would become ~SUPERFAMOUS. I knew Desmond Harrington already. He played Jean d’Aulon in Luc Beeson’s Jehanne d’Arc film :The Messenger. Jean d’Aulon was Jehanne’s Bodyguard and one of my fave characters in the Joan of Arc tale. His […]

Ipomoea : (A Wexford Case) Ruth Rendell. Roxane’s shoes. The leaf was not from a wild plant but from the cultivated climber Ipomoea rubro-caerulea, the Morning Glory. I’m in Distraction Action here ! One of my favourite Ruth Rendell Inspector Wexford books is the one in the image above. I’ve planted and grown ipomoea/convolvulus in several homes. […]
GB : A Blast From the Past GB : Another Whatever GB : Being #FAKE about 23rd Aug 2019 When on the late shift, I’d finish at The George Hotel around 1am. Totally knackered and driving the car above home. Windows WIDE open. CD on, MAXVOL. It (the CD) always started on this song. The […]
For the past few nights I’ve been going to bed with a dentist! Stop. M.C. Beaton/Hamish Macbeth/Death of a Dentist. FFS. It’s probably my 4th or 5th read through/listen and I have finally decided to check out if Marion made up the phrase “Australian Trench.” OK. She didn’t. And I’m NOT surprised. When I joined […]
That’s what I said to our builders a year after moving into this house. Before – this room and that chimneybreast had f-ugly 1950’s beige tiles all over it and a modern electric 3-bar fire. Rip it ALL out! Behind the wall we found the recess and the YorkStone Lintel. So I HAD to HAVE […]
