October 3, 2007. I have decided to move my blog to a new site. To read all future entries you will now have to click HERE. October 2, 2007. Here’s a lovely spot on the Ottawa River just east of Orleans. My mother and I spent an afternoon there last month, trying to sketch this view in watercolours:. Another part of the island has a pond, full of frogs, muskrats and herons, that reflects the passing clouds:. Carol tells me there’s a plan to put a road bridge. Older persons and books.

September 25, 2007. During her stay in Canada my mother reminisced about her experience of the outbreak of war in September ’39, when she was a twenty year old Londoner. Her recollections brought it to life for me, so I’ll share them here. A couple of days before the beginning of the 2nd World War, when Poland was being invaded and everyone knew that war was inevitable, my mother, who had a “half-season” ticket to the Proms. And “a funny atmosphere” during the. If the town concerned is less than fifty mi...

We live in a kingdom of rains: June 2006
http://kingdomofrains.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
We live in a kingdom of rains. Thursday, June 29, 2006. Next year, new name: Fawlty Towers in the Jungle. Tell your friends. There's only one street, so it wasn't easy to miss people. The main thing that he pointed out in his conversation about how things have changed is that now most children go to and from school by motorcycle. This is true; every day the little fleet set off in the morning and returned in the evening. Now I know exactly where to go if I want someone to mend ANYTHING I own that's broken.

We live in a kingdom of rains. Thursday, February 03, 2011. Her course was true, for he was an able seaman through and through . In a recent blog entry. Singing Madrigals", my sister-in-law (Alison Hobbs) mentions the double-entendres. Sometimes to be found in madrigals. Our current usage of the expression double-entendre. Tends to be a derogatory one, often applied to short, smutty sexual allusions of the: If I said you have a beautiful body, would you hold it against me? The story line runs: a sailor t...

Joris@Blog: Joris' pdf in 2010
http://jorisverbiest.blogspot.com/2011/01/joris-pdf-in-2010.html
Sunday, 2 January 2011. Joris' pdf in 2010. If I were a quantum particle, where would you place your detector in order to optimise the likelihood of detection? Not in the blogosphere, that much is clear. I've just done some calculations and here's the probability-density-function for me in 2010:. It's a bit disappointingly white, this graph, but maybe one day I'll make the pdf for my life so far (on a double log scale) and then you might see some more colour. 2 January 2011 at 14:48. Hypothesed that when...

Joris@Blog: Out of action
http://jorisverbiest.blogspot.com/2010/05/out-of-action.html
Monday, 3 May 2010. To all those who haven't noticed on Buzz or Twitter: I've been incapacitated, though a pair of crutches has come to my partial aid and is helping me move around to some degree. What happened was nothing other than a nice and friendly game of frisbee on a lovely (and only slightly rainy) Sunday afternoon in the park. I admit that I may have played a bit too seriously because really, you shouldn't try to catch a disk someone else is trying to catch at the same time. Thank God for German...

We live in a kingdom of rains: Molly Whuppie 5
http://kingdomofrains.blogspot.com/2011/02/molly-whuppie-5.html
We live in a kingdom of rains. Tuesday, February 15, 2011. It was a long while before Molly's sisters said anything, and when they did it was to complain. Where are we going, Molly? We're lost aren't we! All three girls were soaked to the skin now, from pushing through the deep snow, and they were hungry, too, but Molly wasn't ready to stop. You're right, I don't know where we're going, but we're no more lost than we were when we woke up this morning," said Molly. Just a short rest, then," said Molly.
