“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.”
In my own school life, RE (Religious Education) turned into RI (Religious Instruction) I had a beautiful RE teacher at QEGS. She was married to the Chemistry Teacher. Both of them despaired of me. Bunsen Burners were the best fun we had in the Chem Lab :o) My point – Why did Education turn into […]
Like everyone else, I am UNIQUE. A One Off. An Individual who doesn’t think like you, look like you, walk like you or talk like you. I KNOW that YOU have spent (at least) the past 18 months pretending to be me. YOU have even sent emails to my friends, pretending to be me. (I […]
This is way off the BIZARRE Scale! I’ve been wanting to design my own Tarot Cards for years. Hence all the research! BUT – my life has just got a whole lot easier. Woohoo. This is the Emperor/Empress (non-gender-specific) And this is the High Priestess/Hierophant (ditto) They all represent us Non-Gender-Specific Hoomans!!!! Every single card […]
Today has every possibility of being EXPLOSIVE! Some have waited for this, silently watching. I quote RubySlipper : This explosive conjunction echoes the crisis of the First Quarter Moon. Uranus (ruler of Aquarius) is activated by Mars (actions, anger). Possibilities range from violence to accidents to impulse. Keeping in mind that the First Quarter Square […]
Watching these kind of programmes fascinate me in so many ways. This Mystery 15th Century House that was dismantled brick by brick is an enigma. I’ve never been to Pembrokeshire but know a little about it through my research into the Ravens of Dinefwr. Nest ferch Rhys was the older sister of Gruffydd and Hywel. […]
I know a little bit about the writing of Death on the Nile. Agatha spent a whole year living in the Cataract Hotel as she wrote this novel. Probably one of her finest tuned plots EVER! Cataracts & Elephants Her first husband left her for a younger, prettier floozy then wife. But Agatha then met […]
My favourite character in Dad’s Army has always been Frazer the dour Scottish undertaker. John Laurie played him to the hilt and beyond. If you’ve never watched Dad’s Army, may I humbly recommend it as one of those timeless classics ? Here is Frazer – the quintessential Celt – who tells a Grand Wee Story. […]
The above are not MY words. I wish I had the wisdom and the knowledge to write such things. I’ve always leaned more towards Carl Gustav than Sigmund. So has the author of this piece, methinks.
There is just ONE reason why this website is still operating. July 2020, I was given by a much loved family member – free gratis and for nothing – the funds to pay WP for another year. I will stay that annual fee out in honour of him. In July 2021 – both Greta Brookes […]
SH1T! I’ve been up since stupid o’clock tending to the poorly puppy. Two hot water bottles, one Alpaca Yarn hand-crocheted blanket, scrambled eggs, ham (with secret drugs on top), scrambled eggs and a cup of tea later….! I’m knackered. All the above for doggy, btw!!!! One bright light. I had to go into town at […]
