Homemade pies.

Fruit pie or meat pie?

An excellent 90s dance track by DJ Tiesto featuring that wonderful Canadian singer/songwriter Sarah McLachlan -

Silence.

For quality, Farmers Market but sadly, way too expensive for general shopping.

Home-cooked ham or packet, sliced ham?

I liked Marianne but the song that really struck me was The Ballad of Lucy Jordan from 1979. It was originally a hit for Dr Hook and the Travelling Medicine Show, who released it as The Ballad of Lucy Jordon in 1974. Marianne totally made it her own.

Excellent competition and inspired such a range of ideas. Congratulations to Verbal and Shy and well done to the runners-up. All the entries were superb and you should all be proud of your stories. Thanks to Molly and the admins for setting this one.

Found this whilst surfing.

I collect many things. I love all things miniature but one collection that drives my other-half mad is my collection of 'Gluhwein' mugs which I seek out each and every visit to Germany. Every town has it's own design and many are printed with the year. I have a kitchen shelf which is now full and each time I 'collect' one the only thing I hear is...
"Where is that one going to go?"

Eight years on and that shelf is now a cabinet full! 🤣

Hi, Everyone.

I just dropped in to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy and prosperous new year.

I have been a little scarce around here lately. Sadly, there have been family issues to contend with, not least the death of my young niece last month aged 43. I hope that 2025 will see an improvement all round. I may even find time to write a flash story... 😉

See you all next year.

Do you wish for things?

Watch TV AND listen to music (not at the same time) while NOT exercising.

Listen to a CD or watch the same music on a DVD/Bluray?

I am watching season 1 of 'The Empress' on Netflix. It is the dramatised story of Elisabeth (Sisi) Von Wittelsbach, Princess of Bavaria, and Emperor Franz Josef of Austria-Hungary.

It is beautifully photographed, and a wonderful story. A German production with subtitles.

Hurricane or Spitfire I wonder.

Ich liebe Apfelstrudel! 🤤

With cream or custard?

Wrong director. American Graffiti was George Lucas' second (and first well-known) film. 😊Interestingly, Harrison Ford had a small role in it but apparently his casting as Han Solo didn't really come out of that.

Oops!! I knew that. Goodness knows why I wrote Spielberg. 🙄

Anyway... Easily mistaken for a Bond Theme, I love the collaboration of John Barry and Donna Summer.

Down Deep Inside from the Peter Yates directed The Deep.

The ost of The Crow (Brandon Lee). The film is okay but I love the music by Graeme Revell.

How about a scary, fun costume?

Pumpkin Spiced Latte of straight black?

It will come as no surprise to some that I love cats. I am absolutely not a dog person, with but two exceptions.

The first is the Siberian Husky. I think they are gorgeous, with their blue eyes and evil-looking facial colours.

The second is my son's Border Collie, Buddy. I couldn't not love him. He is the friendliest and most gentle dog you could ever meet. He is always so pleased to see me when we visit.

However, all that said, I would never own a dog.

beginning of the end, no?
