Mr Gnome's Blog: Gasping
http://mrgnomeisblogging.blogspot.com/2011/10/gasping.html
Gnome news is good news. Thursday, 20 October 2011. Tickets for this remarkable entertainment should be overprinted with a health warning: 'Severe danger of hy. Resistance is futile as James Corden and fellow cast members serve up their sensational seaside soufflé (we're in Brighton 1963). Very, very funny - and, for me, far more engaging than the mechanical mayhem of 'traditional' farce. The stunning sight gags and multiple mis-identifications are shot through with real human emotion. Maybe in your town.

Mr Gnome's Blog: The Village Trumpeter
http://mrgnomeisblogging.blogspot.com/2011/11/village-trumpeter.html
Gnome news is good news. Wednesday, 2 November 2011. Tragically, the local trumpeter is, as they say in Botswana, late. Consequently, when the need for announcement arises, it's now a matter of 'toot it yourself'. Blowing his own trumpet with the best of them, therefore, is Rory Keegan - editor, writer and all-purpose project manager. Thanks to advice from a savvy 'career coach', he's determined to raise awareness of his imminent availability on the job market. Pop across to the Rory is Available.

Mr Gnome's Blog: May 2011
http://mrgnomeisblogging.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Gnome news is good news. Monday, 9 May 2011. Inveterate traveller Mr Gnome is in the north-eastern corner of the United States visiting the (comfortably small) community of Camden, Maine. He's rapidly falling under the spell of this ultra-charming small town, vividly coming to life with the arrival of a very late (to Mr G) spring. Camden, a former mill town, is now a summer resort: yachty and boaty. But with plenty of pottering pleasures for landlubbers. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Harry at Ethel's party.

Gnome news is good news. Monday, 17 October 2011. Mr Gnome and I have emerged from tonight's performance of the RSC's new production of Peter Weiss's Marat/Sade. Does this classic example of the 1960s 'theatre of cruelty' still have the power to shock? But it wasn't the profusion of prosthetic willies or the character with compulsive masturbation issues (I know, SO last century) that left one speechless. So come on, RSC, in what rarefied world is £10 not enough for a single fish supper? Maybe in your town.

Mr Gnome's Blog: September 2007
http://mrgnomeisblogging.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Gnome news is good news. Monday, 10 September 2007. Quiet days are the most dangerous. Quiet days are the most dangerous. Days that are in between more important days. Like today in Krakow. Yesterday we arrived by plane. Tomorrow the trucks carrying our bikes will catch up with us and we will start our holiday journey to Budapest. So today is a free day and we have time on our hands. There’s no point in unpacking. We go into one of the tall buildings where there are maps and photographs. At each stop...

http://mrgnomeisblogging.blogspot.com/2011/10/available.html
Gnome news is good news. Saturday, 29 October 2011. Next year is looking good: a golden jubilee, a Titanic anniversary, a Dickens of a bicentenary - and a wee sporting event in London. And, toot the trumpet, Rory Keegan (Mr Gnome's under writer) is available for employment from 1 January. Hating to be a bore, Keegan nonetheless boldly invites random readers of Mr Gnome's blog to peek at his new Rory is available. Pass it on to a potential employer - or contact Rory for a chat. Harry at Ethel's party.

Gnome news is good news. Wednesday, 3 August 2011. Saturday afternoon in the heart of the city. Turn aside from a thronged shopping street - and suddenly all is silence and stillness. I'm grateful to my friend Jeremy Duncan. For opening my eyes to experiences such as this. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Mr Gnome welcomes messages. Click here to send an e-mail: Mr Gnome. Harry at Ethel's party. Maybe in your town. Not VG at games. Quiet days are the most dangerous. Birmingham Art Gallery and Museum.

Mr Gnome's Blog: More than a tea break
http://mrgnomeisblogging.blogspot.com/2012/04/mr-gnome-is-mortified.html
Gnome news is good news. Monday, 23 April 2012. More than a tea break. Mr Gnome is mortified. Months have slipped by without an addition to his 'blog'. Readers, if there were any, have surely dispersed to the four winds. To be truthful, Mr G has not been entirely Trappist. Such is the onward oomph of technology that he now prefers to offer his opinions to the world via the medium of his human associate's Facebook page. And also of his Flickr album. I still follow you Mr Gnome! 9 May 2012 at 20:51.

Gnome news is good news. Sunday, 30 October 2011. Written on the Heart. As 2011 fades away, the RSC delivers its contribution to the celebrations of the 400th anniversary of the publication of the Authorised (King James) Version of the Bible. Frankly, the first twenty minutes (or so) of Written on the Heart. Clever move. With 'Why does any of this matter? Contrasting translators bookend the story: Jacobean prelate Lancelot Andrewes, whose devotion to the King's project may raise him to an Archbishopric -...
