Oh what a circus!
Wet and warm is quite ok with me. The heating is still on of course (Matt that’s what the thermostat is for) but a mild October/November sounds pleasing. The Halloween Trick or Treaters will be out in their swarms!
Sweet Judy Blue Eyes
Well let me just say that if we can all be as fabulous at 76 as Judy Collins then we’ll be doing well. Glamorous and adventurous! Sparky and wise! Hardworking and honey-voiced etc.
Ice Cream Castles
Soggy in these parts! A very wet Wednesday here with the promise of more wetness to come. But yesterday was shirtsleeves time so I’m not complaining...
U24U @ 5 on 2
Top work from Chris Packham yesterday. Fascinating, encyclopaedic, inspirational stuff and Autumn Watch starts next week. If I hadn’t been at the Bond premiere (I know), I’d have been rummaging in the undergrowth looking for stag beetles and grubs in general.
Late Night Diversions
Happy Monday! Hope everyone had a great weekend! Too many ! already! Late night shenanigans with those U2 boys again. A trip to the O2 for the first night was only slightly marred by missing the first 25 minutes (tunnel blocked, general chaos).
All Fresh and Lovely
Long day! Starting with James Bond (fabulous) and Daniel Craig (in a cardigan!) and finishing with Andrew Neil (with popcorn) and Michael Portillo (in a pink shirt!). Not all days are like this. I even turned down Mr Neil's free peanuts and red wine.
Padded Tights and Flouncy Shirts
I'm off to Bond. Through the still dark streets to see SPECTRE and then talk to D Craig Esquire. But what to wear? I mean I don't want to make Daniel look bad or shabby or under dressed in anyway...
Great Scott
I know that by the time you read this you may well be heartily fed up with Back To The Future Day. But the truth is that I’m not. I loved that movie and how much fun can be had telling your kids about 1985? An awful lot is the answer.
Scissors in the Bath
Getting by. Thanks for your concern. A sniff here, a cough there, healthy eating everywhere. Plus (top recommendation) a bath with Ana Matronic...
Naming It Twice
I have taken it easy. You could hear that I was not healthiest specimen on Friday I believe. The odd sniffle here and there, the occasional sneeze too...
