Australia’s Biggest Morning CosTEAume Party (in the afternoon).
Thanks to everyone who enquired whether I would be selling my books at the Australia’s Biggest Morning CosTEAume Party (in the afternoon) this Saturday, July 4th, 2015. I will not be able to personally attend this event due to prior commitments. However, Terry from Arcade Alchemy, has generously agreed to sell things for me on the day. There will…

Discovering My Green Thumb is lost in the Aether.
Yesterday I wrote a blog post about my garden – complete with an accompanying photo. I scheduled it to post automatically this morning. I trusted WordPress to deliver said post promptly, then crosspost it to the varying social media according to the promise of the attached apps. I then busied myself at a costume workshop,…

The Unfettered Muse
Day one: On Monday I had a molar pulled. It had cracked up the centre and I was in agony. I thought, why not exploit the situation and see where my muse wanders? (An uncommon experience for this teetotaller.) I had organised a notebook to record any anaesthetic-induced inspirations my muse may wish to impart…

Apologies
Dear Reader, Please accept my apology for the lack of a post today. I am currently on serious painkillers and waiting for an emergency tooth extraction tomorrow morning. I will be off my face, um… under the influence of anaesthetic tomorrow (and then more major painkillers for a few days after that). I am forbidden…

Life is Like a Collection of Mugs.
Life is like a collection of mugs – eclectic, surprising, sometimes baffling but always full of memories. This was re-enforced last week; we had to evacuate the entire contents of the corner cupboard so the plumber could fix a leaking pipe. Oh dear, so many mugs! (Outnumbering the glasses, after years of natural attrition.) I…

A Moment to Reflect
Sir Christopher Lee – actor, author, ex-Nazi hunter, musician – died this week. He was ninety-three. So many facts in those two sentences, yet it does not do the man justice. He was intelligent: He studied the classics and was a multilinguist, speaking English, Italian, French, Spanish and German, and proficient in Swedish, Russian and Greek. He was athletic: a champion fencer. He…

Blog Post UPdate
Either wordpress is playing silly buggas or my computer is dying. Rewriting my blog post for the fifth time. It didn’t work. Blog post will happen when technicalities have been fixed. Sorry.

For the Good of the Empire.
Tuesday 9th May: On Monday I posted the link to my new YouTube video. If I had waited just a couple of days, I could have posted it as my regular post today but I couldn’t wait to share. At midnight yesterday I realised what day it was (Tuesday, not Monday – public holidays always…
