The other evening I watched an old comedy drama film on the "Talking Pictures" channel "The Devil & Miss Jones." Starring Jean Arthur and Charles...
Nothing today as it was golf and a bit of shopping. Just checked on our azalea "hedge" around our tiny front garden. The lawn is recovering from...
First day back at golf for months. No adverse reactions after a more than four mile walk on fairly soft ground. Nothing changes, it's as if we'd...
I usually record this each year and watch some, as I find it relaxing. This young lady was first in the short programme with this routine....
Clydie King 1943-2019 Made a lot of records, but not very successful, was a backing singer for an awful lot of other singers. [MEDIA]
Thanks for that. We don't think it looks too "over the top" as it might elsewhere. The tea-house is in the other corner and there's the bamboo...
I got the last of the mucky jobs done today. I jet-washed the "rose patio," got the moss out that starts to grow between the flags. This patio...

Got more done today in about four hours. Had lunch and now watching the cricket on TV. Went to the tip with the buckets full of old rubble from...
This I might have posted on a different thread. It was a bit of a shock when she died. Hard to believe it's five years ago. I really like this....
It took three days in the end to complete the re-pointing of the patios and paths. Didn't start too well as I'd run out of sand, plasticiser and...
I bought Dionne Warwick's third album, in 1964. "Make Way for Dionne Warwick," when I was in my early twenties. At the time I was the manager a...
