For once I am inclined to believe Withnail is right - we are indeed drifting into the arena of the unwell

I don't think all is right with the world. Watching the news these days I am filled with the same feeling of that before a big storm you know the sort of thing. I long for the days of Pimms and the sound of leather on willow but these days it's water with gender bending chemicals coming out of my tap, spitting football players and knife wielding toddlers. I'm tired of thinking about it all let alone typing it here. I'm going on holiday in a couple of weeks, I am hoping I shall come back with lots to say but I've got my doubts.

Elephant Fly

Wow, I've just seen the new Conran bathroom collection for Tchibo and it's amazing. Ofcourse, one would have to see it in the flesh but that family have got the Midas touch and their fingers in many a pie. What a fabulous gene pool. They have turned something so loathsome as a lavatory brush into something you'd want to cuddle in bed. I foresee empty shelves and carnage on a scale of Stella McCartney at H&M.

Yellow Rose of Texas

One of my favourite films like 'EVER' is Local Hero which I will quickly explain is about an American Oil company trying to buy a slice of Scotland for their evil doing. The village of Furness is part of their plans and the villagers are jumping for joy about the huge amounts of cash they're going to get! All goes well until Ben, who owns and lives on the beach, wont budge.
This morning, I was watching the telly and it was almost as if life was imitating art as I watched the report that Mr Trump was trying to build a crazy golf course up there! What was more remarkable was that he looks a bit like Burt Lancaster, is he taking the piss? Time for a DVD re-release me thinks to cash in.

Truth is I've dried. Can't think of a word to say. For the last six years I've had no trouble yarping on about this and that but just lately I've been hard pushed to type an email. Let's all enjoy the silence shall we, for just a bit.
For those who need a fix I can point you in this direction: http://flamingnora.blogspot.com/
