Things To Make Me Smile (and a few things that annoy me)

  • Strange Saturday Achievements

    Ok, so you know how we’re all just one click away from going down a rabbit hole? Well I’ve just been on google maps looking at the grave of Richard Burton and obviously that lead to the grave of Dylan Thomas. They are so simple, and with that simplicity was beauty and peacefulness. My rabbit… Read more

  • I’ve Been To The Library

    I always thought that I was bad at blogging because I had a boring life.  Well recently I’ve been doing THINGS so it seems I’m just really rubbish at writing about it!  I’m not going to list off all of the things I’ve been doing –  in fairness it’s not really a long list, but… Read more

  • Rainy Days

    This is probably a post that should be over on the blog with the photos, but I decided that this was the place I wanted it to be. I love nothing more than a rainy day.  It’s even better if I’m sitting inside – a cup of tea in hand, cosy socks and slippers –… Read more

  • Consolidation

    The internet feels as if it is changing again.  There’s things I miss about the (my) early days – I miss websites, I miss LiveJournal – when your friends page was just your friends posts, in the order they are published.  Facebook is still just a small amount of people reposting other peoples posts –… Read more

  • Stations of the Cross 1-7(via Rev. Richard Coles)

    It is that time of year again when the lovely Reverend tweets his Stations of the Cross.  I have always been stunned by his choice of photos to illustrate the message. First Station: Pilate condemns Jesus to die #StationsOfTheCross pic.twitter.com/Qtj5rKP3UQ — Richard Coles (@RevRichardColes) April 10, 2020 Stations of the Cross. Second Station: Jesus accepts… Read more

  • A Little Light Reading

    There have been many times, when I was in work, that I wished I could just spend the afternoon reading my book.  It seems the reading bug has bitten again – this should been seen in a celebratory light however as I’m working from home at the moment it means falling for temptation is all… Read more

  • Jam Art Factory

    I’ve been seeing them a lot on social media lately – that might be because I started to follow them recently (Who Knew?!). ANYWAY!  One of their prints has caught my eye and I think next week will see me being the proud owner of this: This picture (☝) is by Marta Barcikowska, actually they… Read more

  • Ethel & Ernest

    I love the work of Raymond Briggs!  So it is with great joy and glee to read on the Ethel & Ernest blog that there is a trailer for the up and coming film by Lupus films.  October 28th is now in the diary and I can’t wait!!!!   (Trailer via Flickeringmyth) Read more

  • My Radio

    I love listening to the radio – I have one in every room in the apartment even the smallest room! Actually, that’s not exactly true – I did have a radio on my locker but retired it for the telly.  What I mean by that is we get the radio through the television and the… Read more
