Guernsey is lovely, but the I am biased – it is my home. Other islands in our Bailiwick are Aldnerney, Herm and Sark, the last of which is particularly splendid – no cars (transport: cycles, tractors or horses) […]

Thank you.

One day, I may get one for me!!

I showed Mrs Biggles the OP and she “accused” me of being Tiggerlion!

Anyway, to big myself up, The Boy has just bought his first house, so I commissioned something for his wall.

Hi,

American Pullitzer prize-winning poet/author W.S. Merwin died a couple of weeks ago…

…IIRC, an obituary mentioned a collection of poems and prose(?), one of which was called “For The Anniversary Of […]

Mrs – “Ah, one of your ‘Top […]

Apologies – I have 19 on that list, and a number still remaining in my “need to listen” pile (most of which are probably down to Tigger!).

Also rather fond of a number that are not on there.

As no doubt many […]

Between now and the end of the year, I hope to visit The Boy in that London on a number of occasions, hopefully to see:

– Peter Hook and the Light do “Technique” and “Republic” at Koko on 28/9
– Soft Cell do […]

Three song opening lyrics from me:

” I am angry, I am ill and I’m as ugly as sin – It’s my irritability that keeps me alive and […]

So…

It p!ssed down from pre-dawn until about 16:00.

Things started around 15:00 with a local folk trio, followed by some poetry readings. Freshly-made gumbo/tomato soup/curry was consumed, as was plenty of […]
