What do people want to spend their money on nowadays ? 

In the UK its Only Fans and internet gambling via mobile phones

 

Ive only recently seen the lyrics for this song after all these years. They are rather cutting and predictive about how society has gone. Is this an accurate description of a Californian mindset ? 

Favourite line  - " Getting high on information " lol

 

I feel funny...lol

 I lost my train of thought whilst writing that last post. The reason ? Halda Yakim came on the TV. Her bone structure is just so handsome, and the curved symmetry of her arched smile and eyes look like half moons. So I decided to find a photo of her, but I couldnt find any recent ones. As she has aged the lines of her face have just got better. Handsome is not a word usually associated by me with a female, but it just sums up how I see her.

I must have it bad because when I took a picture of her from the TV she did not look at all like how I see her, or how she appears to me. Weird. My mind is seeing her differently. Is that what love is ? This photo is the most accurate though.

Get out !

 After a bad week I was feeling drained, and extremely angry so I decided to cycle along my favorite canal path. For about 10 minutes the sun came out and I stood closing my eyes and feeling the growing warmth on my face. It reminded  me of when I was not well, and would sit in the garden just feeling the growing warmth of the sun getting stronger each day. Life was returning to nature, and everything was thriving, except me. I shall never forget the intensity of that suffering and the ecstasy of feeling that spring energy. Ive sat many times in that garden since, but have never managed to regain that intense feeling. My only concern was me and getting better. It was such a pure state. I didnt care about anything else.

 

 Why cant I share videos on here straight from YouTube anymore ?

The Blogger share tab has gone ?

Monty Python - Climbing the North Face of the Uxbridge Road

Classic Monty Python humor. I love it.

I wonder...

 You never know whats coming. Yesterday a helium filled birthday balloon blew into a building of cows which spooked them causing a stampede, and one to even jump out over the gate in fright. Its a good job I was not in the building. The plot thickens when I picked up the balloon as it was dark blue and it looked like an older persons color in my opinion. I know of a man who has just had his 85th birthday family  gathering and his daughter married that person who is the nut case further up the valley who caused me to have to chain the field gates. It would be about right if this balloon was linked to him and his family...lol

Imagine dying because of a dis-guarded balloon. 

Life is a joke.

My Uncle is right - Everything is dangerous

A week ago I woke up to this. My metal fish ornament had fallen off the wall above the stove and landed some distance away the right side up, and in a suspiciously straight  line as though it was pointing at where it had fallen from. Last time this happened was at our old house in the village. Welding was required that time, which amused a mechanic carrying out the repair.

This wall hanging means so much to me as I bought it at Boscastle in Cornwall at a very special time of my life, a magical and mysterious time i will never experience again. The fish are very cleverly arrange to mimic a shoal superbly. 

Three Dancing Pony - Advert

Ive always had a sentimental spot for this old advert. But on watching again today one thing hits me right between the eyes. At 1:42 as the tractor drives past the pony ceases dancing briefly to preserve its mundane appearance. Thats how I feel living in this valley, if i'm mowing the lawn or washing my car or when doing anything none  farm work related. These acts trigger curiosity in people, and I hate to admit it but in me as well, but I try to fight such a silly outlook. It doesnt help when people drive past our farm and automatically glance into the yard to see " whats up "

I think its a kind of sensory deprivation that causes this. Its cabin fever, but created by an enclosed valley. This all sounds ridiculous when put in print.
