These two were sat by our back door when I got to work yesterday evening.  It’s strange to think that a small seaside town in Wales has a thriving and popular population of Kashmir Goats but here they still are, the descendants  of a few individuals who were a coronation gift from the Shah of Persia to the young Queen Victoria in 1837 During lockdown they received much worldwide publicity after running amok around town like hoards of StTrinian schoolgirls  and here on West Shore at the base of The Great Orme , they often visit the hospice daily with their benign faces and exotic hornes….   from Going Gently https://ift.tt/t9VaErx

  I won’t bang on about it I’m not a huge fan of Charles But I was rather moved by his expression when he walked into the Abby Finally centre stage  A hint of a smile on his face. Bryn Terfels Kyrie Eleison sung in Welsh was incredibly beautiful  Loved this bit too, see Kate beaming at them at the end  The king sighed with a smile as his army, navy and airforce personnel cheered him from the gardens of Buckingham palace.

  The Duke of California Sussex attended his father's coronation yesterday before flying back to Sussex California. As the great telltale tit sat in his allocated seat in Westminster  Abbey, his head was often obscured from view by the big red feather on Princess Anne's towering bicorn hat. I found this rather amusing - possibly because I have got a warped sense of humour.

Once again, I felt rejected like the 'spare' that I am. My aunt, Princess Anne, had been deliberately placed in front of me with a huge red feather upon her hat in order to make me a laughing stock around the world.  And nobody bothered to ask about my wife and my children - Archie and Lilibet. I could feel ...

  The TCA film night kicked off tonight and I’m glad I pushed past no sleep to help out well….until Pierce Brosnan started to sing him dreadful set piece SOS and I sneaked home, well before half time, after a couple of large white wines and gossip with the velvet voiced Linda and Lorraine from the Garden Centre We had twenty five people turn up, mostly the women and children of the village , so it was more a practice night to sort logistics and technical issues out ( Thanks to Andrew And Dave who sorted out the speaker problems) I think the event will grow with some lateral thinking  The aubretia is bright purple on the Walls of Chapel Street and the blossom vibrant on the village green. It was nice to get home  I’m tired today No sleep today…..I need a catch up too…..btw Roger goes in next week for his snip, and not a moment too soon, from Going Gently https://ift.tt/TMrQDEk
