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

Music

  • I’ve been out of the apartment

    I’ve gone from an almost hermit like existence to being less of a hermit.  I can’t really say social butterfly because that would really give the wrong impression.  On the other hand compared to normal it could be used… Anyway – this year I decided to go to things and do things.  The last few… Read more

  • Slow Sunday Morning

    It’s been a relaxing morning I woke up had a look at the weather forecast and decided that comfort was going to be the order of the day. I eventually got out of the bed and went to the kitchen and blended stuff to make a smoothie type thing.  I’d previously bought a smoothie thing… Read more

  • New Year, Same Me

    Yes I’m sat on the sofa watching the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra’s New Years Day Concert and I’ve dug out the crochet that I told my Mam I’d do. It really doesn’t get better than this! Read more

  • Neujahrskonzert

    This is something I love to watch every New Years Day and this year is no exception. Right now we are waiting for the Blue Danube & the Radetzky March 🙂 We were looking at the concert hall where it is taking place and it really does look like a chocolate box all golden and… Read more

  • BBC One Advert / Bring Me Sunshine

    It really does make me simply smile! Can you watch it without singing/miming along?     Read more
