Just In The Middle of a Dream
Dark and wet! Dark then wet! Then wetter and darker! The end of November dawning in customary style with get-up-and-go weather and a top week on the way. I had a weekend of dreary driving but fabulous bacon sandwiches, pizza and shopping (with 2 actual reindeer). Then another bacon sandwich...
Throwing out your Frown*
Well here we go with another fabulous Friday offering a drive home/weekend away/teatime cooking with some uplifting tunes chosen by some wonderful, upstanding, fun-loving, lipsmackin' acetastin' motivatin' goodbuzzin' cooltalkin' fastlivin’ listeners...
Hail! Hail! Rock’n’Roll
Or alternatively Hey Hey Rock’n’roll. In the first case that’s the 1987 documentary about Chuck Berry and in the second case, it’s almost Showaddywaddy. There aren’t too many rock’n’roll greetings but they’re not bad.
Now I know (now I know) La la (la la la la la la)
What ho! Top Wednesday greetings to all bloggers everywhere, whether they like Queen or not. Drizzle, overcast, brighter later (or bryter later for Nick Drake fans). If you didn’t hear the tracks you wanted on for Tunesday, there’s another one next week! Hooray! We had so many great songs ready ...
Hot Tub Hilarity
Well I asked for wet and I got wet. So much wet that it rattled around the drainpipes and woke me up at some silly hour when all was dark and only breakfast show teams were emerging. Galoshes and sou'westers for the school run everyone...
Sugar For My Honey
Bright and ffffffffreezing here with the hope of wet and warmer by midweek but here's to a top week right here. I spent a while in Glasgow on Saturday and that was super-bracing.
Goodbye Cardigan, Hello Sweater
Boiler gearing up for its first test of the autumn, winter wardrobe dusted off and ready. This is because I have no winter tyres. Every year I get told I should have them and every year I feel I should find out if that’s right.
Lashings of Ginger Beer
I never read the Famous Five book when I was a kid (unless I’ve just forgotten) but we have loads of them in our house. I loved reading them to the sleepy children even if they realised that the 5 seemed to have way more freedom to run around on holiday than they did.
Saga for all ages
Well Wednesday already. And around these parts it was blowing a hoolie. The sounds of bins, flowerpots and the inebriated rattling around the street carried on for quite some time. Ear plugs were found, alarm duly slept through, running late. So it goes…
A Texan Wave
An early start here, off to a thing. It's a BBC thing run by the big boss so attendance is a very good idea. Plus it's all about books and so I'm his man (well I think I am anyway).
