Ex-Wife Exorcises Peer
This headline was in The Times today and concerns the ex-wife of Lord Taylor of Warwick.
It probably shows you should keep religion and politcs separate. In fact religion should be kept separate from everything.
Ingrid Pitt
Ingrid Pitt, one of the stars of British horror films died a few months ago. So it is rather fitting that the Rio cinema in Dalston is showing some of her films.
Rio Cinema, Dalston
In some ways the biggest story about Ingrid Pitt, is that she survived a Nazi concentration camp. A documentary and perhaps a longer film is being made.
The Spirit of Boughton Lives
I’ve mentioned Boughton before as a sense of great hilarity and a running joke between my father and myself.
But his methods are still alive and well and hopefully dying in this house, as the staircase showed.
Just look at how the worktop is mounted using the fridge as a base.
Boughton Lives
Note how the door has collapsed and broken. Partly, this might be due to the hanging of the false front on the fridge, but mainly it’s because everything fouls everything else and just shutting the fridge puts enormous strain on the door and the hinges. Incidentally, the raised screw is down to me, as I removed the false front before it broke anything else.
If I can get the fridge out, I’ll fit a new one, as a new door alone costs the same as a whole new fridge from Currys, John Lewis or someone else equally reputable.
Let’s hope the geyser who did this, built his own house and it collapses into a heap of firewood and bricks, whilst he’s out shopping with his family.
Feeling Guilty
I hadn’t realised that the vicious floods at Boscastle had occurred on my birthday in 2004. I’ve been trying to think where I was, but can’t remember.
Perjhaps, I’m feeling guilty, whilst others were in so much peril.
Ice Cold in Cornwall
I went to Cornwall for the weekend with friends.
Cold wasn’t the word for the weather.
Icicles at Boscastle
This was the walk by the river in Boscastle. In the end we retreated to the Wellington Hotel for some delicious hot chocolate. We also had an early dinner there before returning to London. The menu was very coeliac and vegetarian friendly.
I had some delicious liver and bacon. All that B12 seems to have freshened up my skin quite a bit.
