Monday Mixtape – Birth Dates

16 January 201231 October 2019 The Girl Behind6 Comments

I’ve not done much in the way of creativity this past week, but I’ve been keeping entertained with twitter and facebook. One of the things going around on facebook has been the meme about what was number one on the day we were born. And now it turns out that Clara at I Want My… Continue reading Monday Mixtape – Birth Dates

Monday Mixtape

9 January 201226 October 2019 The Girl Behind8 Comments

Over at I Want My Mummy, Clara’s hosting a Monday Mixtape on childhood crushes. Mine was George Michael.  In his Wham! heyday, I covered my bedroom wall with posters and thought he was the most gorgeous man alive.  I still have a huge soft spot for him now, but less of a crushy thing and… Continue reading Monday Mixtape

The heads… Continue reading Faces (122 of 365)

And Mike was a bit peturbed at the prospect of… Continue reading Kate Rusby at Cannon Hall Farm

This is the last of my seaside pictures. Our trip to Morecambe was mainly because I wanted to see Eric Morecambe’s statue on the sea front.  I used to love watching Morecambe and Wise, and really enjoy the Christmas repeats each year. Most of all, though, I’m a huge fan of their theme song, “Bring… Continue reading Sunshine (49 of 365)

Today’s Special Project. Sometimes, I think I go a bit far with things. My mother used to say that, “You always go too far with things and then get fed up. This’ll just be another fad.” That was after I gave up tap dancing and wanted to join the Brownies. Anyway, on with the show.… Continue reading Books
