A Bunch of Amateurs – Oh, What a Beautiful (if slightly weird) Film

February 13, 2023 · 2 Comments ·

SPOILERS ABOUND Blog. Do you remember The Misfits (1961)?  The last film Marilyn Monroe and Clark Gable ever made before their untimely deaths shortly after the film’s completion. There, Hollywood gave us two movie giants, struggling in the heat of the Nevada desert, but also … Continue reading A Bunch of Amateurs – Oh, What a Beautiful (if slightly weird) Film

It Can’t Be 2023 – Can It?

January 3, 2023 · Leave a comment ·

Blog, it’s been a long, long time.  A year to be exact. What happened to an entire year’s worth of Time?  It feels like planet Earth has been turning at the speed of light.  I looked up how fast the Earth actually turns, thinking it … Continue reading It Can’t Be 2023 – Can It?

Peter Rabbit and Peter Rabbit 2: The Runaway

December 29, 2021December 29, 2021 · Leave a comment ·

I love the Peter Rabbit films.  Love, love, love them. And I love James Corden as Peter Rabbit. James Corden’s voice is perfect, there’s nothing even slightly annoying about it at all. In fact, it couldn’t be bettered.  And I love the scripts; full of … Continue reading Peter Rabbit and Peter Rabbit 2: The Runaway

2021 – The Year I caught Strictly Fever

December 20, 2021 · Leave a comment ·

Dear Science. Whilst your busy cooking up covid jabs and working out the answer to life, the universe and everything, could you also please find a way to bottle Rose Ayling-Ellis?  Could you perhaps distil her magical, mysterious and mesmerising essence and then prescribe it … Continue reading 2021 – The Year I caught Strictly Fever

Animal Crossing New Horizons – Version 2.0

December 6, 2021 · Leave a comment ·

I’m back gaming, like I was in dim and distant lockdown days; like my life depends on it; like my cartoon island is Reality and this Covid jabbing, government meandering, NHS overwhelming, virus mutating nightmare belongs in an alternate universe somewhere far, far away. Nook … Continue reading Animal Crossing New Horizons – Version 2.0

Fanatical about Felt

November 13, 2021 · 2 Comments ·

Blog.  It’s been a while since you and I conversed. Perhaps ‘conversed’ is putting it a bit too strongly, since our conversations are always distinctly one-sided (if I ever think otherwise dear Blog, please inform me that, like the Cheshire cat, I’ve gone quite mad.) … Continue reading Fanatical about Felt

Bill and Ted Face the Music (and save Life, the Universe and just about everything else really)

July 11, 2021 · Leave a comment ·

Oh, I loved William S Preston Esq and Theodore Logan back in the day. Waaayyy back in the day when I was in my twenties.  You can’t beat a bit of Bill and Ted to lift your mood, to make you forget you’re in your … Continue reading Bill and Ted Face the Music (and save Life, the Universe and just about everything else really)

Double Knitting a Harry Potter Scarf

June 14, 2021 · 2 Comments ·

Oh, the frabjous joy when you (well, me) discover the wonders of a new knitting technique.  I feel the knitting Gods must have guided my hands when, on a day in the not-so-distant past, I landed upon Harry Potter knitting charts on Ravelry.  I think … Continue reading Double Knitting a Harry Potter Scarf

200 Blog Posts and 2 Bears

May 19, 2021 · 3 Comments ·

Blog. Immediately after publishing the post previous to this one, a WordPress notification informed me that I'd just made my 200th post, an anniversary I was completely unaware of, otherwise I'd have announced the fact on said previous post to much fanfare. Since I started … Continue reading 200 Blog Posts and 2 Bears

The Delightful but Dark Victoria Schwab

May 12, 2021 · Leave a comment ·

*Absolutely laden with spoilers in Vicious, one of Ms Schwab's books. My pandemic induced reading marathon continues.  My relentless search for ghostly and strange literary fodder recently led me to Victoria Schwab (or V E Schwab as she also likes to be known.)  I’m four … Continue reading The Delightful but Dark Victoria Schwab
