“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.”
We talk a lot here at home about Food Envy. That’s when you see what someone else is eating and go…Oh. I want that! Well. Today, I have had a SEVERE bout of House Envy. If I ever lived alone, I’d live somewhere like Mouse Cottage. It might not be quite so pristine and tidy […]
When you are on a certain vibe – you just have to go with the music that you are given. I have ALWAYS ben a fan of Thin Lizzy and this is in MY top3 ! P.S. When you are the F1RST born of a drummer and spent your childhood listening to drums……….! P.P.S. I […]
I will always and forever be grateful to my Mum and Dad for letting my brothers and I make our own choice of life path. Despite years of suggestions – Mum kept throwing being a NURSE at me. Dad stayed silent. In the end – aged 17 – when I Went My Own Way – […]
I was around 3 years old when I first met my Dad’s family. From that day until the last time I visited his hometown, the beach was MY “deeply mysterious…awe-inspiring” place. When my brothers and I would visit the grand-parentals they ALWAYS knew where to find us. That was Our Playground. The waves, the sand, […]
As it is St Andrew’s Day today, I was going to write a big piece about the Saint Andrew’s Cross. Saint Andrew and all that hidden history. But (for once) Wiki saved the day. And my time! Wow. The stuff I learn just boggles my mind. St. Andrew’s Cross I might’ve mentioned once or a […]
In honour of St Andrew, this post is about the Fiery Cross that the Scots used to light to call in the clans. A little bit obvious, you say? Running around the mountains with that lighting the way! Yes. But they also had other ways. The image above is a watermark showing The Fiery Cross. […]
Yep. I’m guilty of saying Dis-Associate too. But that’s a programme. Dissociate means to separate/disconnect. This is the Miracle Promised to me and now given. I’m in a place of peace. Completely disconnected from the external BS. Yes. I’ll cuss out loud occasionally…but that’s quite fun :o) Oooh. Am I in a coma? Or in […]
If you don’t know what a Glasgow Kiss is, look it up and then this may make sense. The image above is part of the Glasgow Coma Scale. This scale is used by medics to assess the true level of trauma to a brain and was developed by two Glaswegian Neuro-Scientists. Maybe it’s just me […]
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. Just asking if any one else had SEEN the same. How Very Dare I? Meanwhile. Back in Edinburgh where so many yt commenters have decided to […]
We used to love this programme when it first started. My boys watched later episodes and then went back to the beginning to watch our episodes. SMEG! I see many peeps on a certain platform as Kryten. Robots. Programmed to do what they are told to do… even when they KNOW better! Kochanski was ALWAYS […]
I CANNOT make this up. God’s Honest and on my boys’ lives – I fell asleep last night listening to the book above. I have ALL the Hamish Macbeth books on audio and prefer the earlier ones read by Davina Porter. Who – btw – narrated Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander books too. I’ve nothing against David […]
Exactly a year TO THE DAY later and the only thing that’s changed is that EYES2SEE and VENUSROSE have changed their names! Same old otherwise. P.S. This was the around the time that the wonderful and much missed @V claimed that it was HER birthday week. PP.P.S And they are STILL yakky yakky about Bricks […]
