Stan lights the way

We watched a TV programme last night about the plane that caught fire in 1983 killing Stan Rogers among the 22 others who died; So next time you’re in a plane pay attention when they point out that row of lights on the floor. Thank Stan for them.

So this morning I looked him up on YouTube. I chose Northwest Passage by chance. A truly wonderful voice was lost on 2nd June 1983.

Who is a refugee?

This explains clearly the how why and when:

I love hollyhocks

Faith Hope and Charity

Every year because of cross pollination new plants flower in different shades and colours.  I love this time of year - full of colourful surprises.

Gardening the easy way

I took some pictures through the window when we were in the UK last week.  This is the result, demonstating an easier way to uproot trees.

Connecting Little Dorrit with Pride and Prejudice

In the weeks leading up to Christmas I watched the BBC’s 2008 adaptation of Little Dorrit starring Claire Foy and Matthew Macfadyen as Arthur Clennam. As always with the BBC’s costume dramas, it was excellent. When I was given a Kindle for Christmas, Little Dorrit was the first book I read on it and I enjoyed it immensely.

A few weeks ago while out shopping I picked up some reduced price DVDs and one of them was Pride and Prejudice made in 2005 and to my delight when I started to watch it Matthew Macfayden was in the role of Fitzwilliam Darcy! Of course, I’ve read the book many times and seen different adaptations of the story. This was a real treat

Looking him up on Wikipedia, I discovered that Mr Macfayden has had a lot of really interesting roles . it’s a pity he hasn’t been on French television much at all.

I found this beautiful video on yourtube, set perfectly to music…

The early 70s were a magical time for me...

Demis Roussos

1946 - 2015

I was 18 when Forever and Ever was in the music charts.  My little cousin was just 6 years old, but he never forgot the song...

One good thing about joining Facebook in your later years, is that you renew contact with friends from the past. Rob has been catching up with an old friend of his. He plays the saxaphone, something we knew about, but as the years have gone by, he's made a lot of progress. This is a clip of his!
