day will break and i’m gonna wake and start to bake a sugar cake

don’t waste your words, i don’t need anything from you

…i don’t care where you’ve been, or what you plan to do. Easter Sunday what? Yeah, I’m working, you’re all bored of hearing that. But I’m not bothered because it’s Easter Sunday, in particular; I’m just bothered because it’s Sunday in general, the sun’s out, and everyone else I know is off. I’m so far [...]

bei mir bist du schoen, you’ve heard it all before

Golly, it was warm yesterday, wasn’t it? I thought the smog was coming to get me (but, no, it was just my ankles). I’d happily settle for these conditions for the next few months – no more, no less. But since that’s highly unlikely, I’m just going to hope that it holds out until at [...]

calypso sing and make-up rhyme guarantee you one real good fine time

I can’t work out if I feel human again yet or not. I’m going to dose myself up anyway, just incase. Hope you all have wonderful days off in the sun. I’m working – shock. I don’t think I’d want to be off anyway as i have NOTHING TO WEAR. This is my current crisis [...]

i feel like growing fins and falling in

Oh, and also. You should all go on eBay and bid on this dress that I’m selling because it doesn’t fit. I can’t even wear it and be uncomfortable, because it literally-won’t-go-past-my-hips. Gutted. Whoever wins it, I’ll be well-jell.

you see it in the sea, river cools where i belong

Oops. Had a bit of heavy weekend and consequently fallen off the radar. We were having a bit of a celebration in Merseyside and I’ve come back home to a big fat cold. Urgh. We came back on Monday and I had every intention of blogging, but instead I got distracted by Sleeping With The [...]

i tried and tried to run and hide

…i even tried to run away. You just can’t run from the funnel of love; it’s gonna get you someday. Morning. I started my day with a brisk walk (I left something at work last night and needed it), a huge coffee (a feeble attempt to de-puff my eyeballs) and a toasted bagel (marmite, if [...]

one day, you’ll look to see i’ve gone…

…for tomorrow may rain so i’ll follow the sun. Recently, I keep stumbling across things I’ve haven’t referred to on this blog before, but which are so much an in-built, unconditional, goes-without-saying part of my life, that it might seem absurd to those who know me. Suffice it to say, The Beatles are one of [...]

one fine day, we’ll meet once more

There are hardly any trees where I live. This makes it difficult to assess where we are in the seasonal calender in the traditional way. Also, my balcony is a suntrap and the entrance to my building is the biggest wind tunnel you’ve ever met (whatever the time of year) so neither are ideal for [...]

while you point your finger someone else is judging you

I often find myself scouring youtube for live footage of Bob Marley. I can’t help it. It’s like it’s my default setting. Bob-moving-in-real-life-SEARCH. That’s what I’ve just found myself doing, on this, a treasured evening off. I’ve probably seen all there is to see, but I always hope I’ll stumble across something new. And if [...]
