A Languedoc Journal: OCD

http://alex-in-languedoc.blogspot.com/2011/02/ocd.html

Days in the life of country folk, or, the life, loves, hates and ramblings of a man, one baguette short of a pique nique. Saturday, February 19, 2011. Jan accused me of having more than a touch of OCD this morning. As she rolled over for her morning cuddle, you know the sort where she lies on your left arm and sticks her hair in your face, I have to continue reading until I reach a certain point. There are boxes all over the house in a seemingly random fashion. Me, I'd finish one room at at time and ...

Autolycus: Today's mystery object...

http://autolycus-london.blogspot.com/2014/11/todays-mystery-object.html

A snapper-up of unconsidered trifles . Heron Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Friday, 14 November 2014. Is a serpent - the kind you blow down. To make (if you're really proficient) a sound somewhere between a French horn and a tuba. This weekend the Painted Hall at Greenwich serves as the impressively grandiose. Venue for the exhibition part of the Early Music Festival. For makers and suppliers of music and musical instruments. And an amazing collection of harps. Bagpipes and other products. Smoke:...

Autolycus: Madeira: Levadas and cascades

http://autolycus-london.blogspot.com/2015/04/madeira-levadas-and-cascades.html

A snapper-up of unconsidered trifles . Heron Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Wednesday, 29 April 2015. Madeira: Levadas and cascades. Levadas are the irrigation channels built to take mountain springs and streams down into the supply system for Madeira's farms and people. They provide a network of routes in and around the moutain slopes to various scenic viewpoints, so walking along them is a popular attraction for visitors. In a dripping mist, the atmosphere can be almost other-worldly. And if lo...

A Languedoc Journal: Question

http://alex-in-languedoc.blogspot.com/2011/02/question.html

Days in the life of country folk, or, the life, loves, hates and ramblings of a man, one baguette short of a pique nique. Saturday, February 26, 2011. Is there any truth in the rumour that Abdelbaset al-Megrahi has asked to be moved out of Libya and back to prison in Scotland for his safety? Below is the best chat-up line ever and always, always works. Excuse me love, could I ask your opinion. Does this damp cloth smell like chloroform to you? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A Languedoc Journal: Proud dad

http://alex-in-languedoc.blogspot.com/2011/02/proud-dad.html

Days in the life of country folk, or, the life, loves, hates and ramblings of a man, one baguette short of a pique nique. Thursday, February 24, 2011. Max was sitting outside today soaking up some rays before he moves to Yarkshire on Monday. Clever dog! I thought he looked particularly imposing and I couldn't resist this photo. Love the pointy ears. Is he vulcan? Having said that I now really like the look and it makes him look quite impressive. Good to have you back in the real world. A Taste of Garlic.

Autolycus: Madeira: Flowers and gardens

http://autolycus-london.blogspot.com/2015/05/madeira-flowers-and-gardens.html

A snapper-up of unconsidered trifles . Heron Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Saturday, 2 May 2015. Madeira: Flowers and gardens. Up in the hills behind Funchal (so high there's a cable car up to it) is the village of Monte, which hosts not only the last resting-place of the last Austro-Hungarian Emperor (still, its seems, attracting Hungarian devotees. And the start of Madeira's much-touted street toboggan rides. No, we didn't), but also several gardens. And traditional ornamental tiling. 60-somet...

Autolycus: Sunshine at the Bank

http://autolycus-london.blogspot.com/2015/05/sunshine-at-bank.html

A snapper-up of unconsidered trifles . Heron Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Monday, 4 May 2015. Sunshine at the Bank. No, not a weather forecast, either literally or financially, but a person. To be specific, someone I must have been at school with, and referred to in a letter from a mutual friend found in a box full of old letters starting over 40 years ago, uncovered in the process of de-cluttering (finally! There was no great loss in consigning so much trivia to the shredder; but some names an...
