Advance

British Summer Time, here we come*!

*Just hope the Rain got the memo LOL.

Cilantro

Yeah that's a really daft name and one that only North Americans tend to use but it got your attention.

Nevertheless I found this little gem the other day: a reminder of a really awesome restaurant I used to occasionally visit and where some wonderful memories were created. 

Although it was a bit of a drive and parking nearby could be problematic, it was always well worth it. I recall the menu was extensive and the portions generous, as was the Bill LOL. You can't expect an incredible experience without being prepared to pay. I think it survived the madness of the 'Rona days but shut up shop shortly thereafter. It's certainly long gone now.

Happy times.

Tie Me Up

Life, both professional and social, is much more relaxed and casual these days. Dressed down if you will. As such I probably don't need the appropriately 50 ties I currently own. A few were ditched a couple of years ago during a mini-purge, bytheway.

In fact, with not many more neck adornments, I could probably rent a bespoke small retail unit and resurrect the now defunct British retailer Tie Rack. Not to be confused with Thailand LOL.

Anyway, it's time to have a serious clear out; keeping only a few faves for weddings, funerals, christenings and other formal settings. You know the sort of thing.

As depicted, a great many of my ties were cartoon in nature, with Wallace and Gromit featuring quite heavily.

Rumour Has It

Rumours (see what I did there?) abound I've been out two nights in a row. 

'Tis true, this evening was spent at a very special evening celebrating the music of Fleetwood Mac by Candlelight. Electric candles, of course: you never can be too careful. Nevertheless it was a truly amazing and atmospheric event, set within a lovely old English church. What's not to like..?

Again

Two ELO tributes in the space of one month? Outrageous LOL!

Daffs

Must be Spring, at last.

 

Notts

Pause

Is there a better way of killing time LOL..?

05 And Twenty

Cryptic but it's gonna be fun LOL.

The Tube

Just a run-of-the-mill, ordinary day on the London Underground LOL..?

Potion

Another mash-up of two favourites from my youth. Promise I'll stop now LOL.

Children's Classic

Having grown up reading Enid Blyton's Famous Five (and Secret Seven) and being an avid viewer of Doctor Who, this made me chuckle.
