Clever


Bob and Sophie don't know it yet but tomorrow they are heading off to the k-e-n-n-e-l-s. Today they will be spoiled rotten.


The croissant this morning is decidedly uninspiring. 6.3/10.


'The Font' finished reading 'Fear'. A subtler book than the reviews would have you believe.


This was perhaps the most interesting ( and for a Swede ) the most alarming paragraph.

The most Swedish headline of the year ? :  https://www.thelocal.se/20181003/elk-herring-chaos-sweden-road-accident-tjorn?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

 And is this the most beautiful piece by Chopin ? :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWZmw7qKjNM

    Chopin 10 out of 10, but I did not want to watch that pianist again.

    Excellent Swedish headline! We know Tjörn very well (my husband studied Swedish at university and we have Swedish friends there).

      Elks and herrings are certainly better for the blood pressure.

    Chopin never wrote a bum note IMO... the playing of Chopin's notes? That can vary! YAM xx

    Tillerson and McMaster are long gone. On occasion one hears that Trump is growing frustrated with Mattis and that he might be replaced. Worrisome prospect.

      Tom Cotton as DefSec and Lyndsey Graham as AG. What fun awaits.

    You may recall that I love the piano. And when I hear Chopin's preludes I remember a professor saying that "if tears could be heard, they would sound like Chopin's preludes." So true.

    Safe travels - I am also out of town and dog-less for a few days. A much needed break.

      What a lovely way of describing Chopin.
      Bon voyage.
