What makes women happy

- no, I don't know all the answers lol It's the title of a book I've just read by Fay Weldon, and can thoroughly recommend it on lots of levels. I'm hoping to find her biography, Auto da Fay in the library to borrow.
I remember watching Lives and Loves of a She Devil on television - anyone else watch it?

Real magic........

- isn't just about spells and potions, it is in your morning coffee, a gentle touch from your lover, the complex beauty of a leaf, and in hundreds of thousands of other seemingly "mundane" things.

Ten minutes............

'.... the perfect ten minutes are worth living for, and the almost perfect hours that circle them are worth fighting for, and examining, the better to prolong them'

Fay Weldon (slightly adapted)

'Ordinary people'

Do you know, there is no such thing as an 'ordinary' person.............. I have met so many fascinating and interesting people in the last few days; every one has a story to tell, something interesting to share, a good conversation to have, they just need to be talked to and listened to. Give it a try, you'll be amazed as I am at just how wonderfully interesting people are.

Still away.........

Just to let you know I'm still away and forming plans and schemes.....lots of irons in lots of fires at the moment, sot a lot of sorting out to do. I'm in a very beautiful part of the country with lovely, friendly people. Have taken some photos, but still unable to post them here, but working on it.
Hope everyone is well :))

Off on a jaunt.............

I'm usually an armchair traveller - especially when it comes to overseas travel - I'm quite happy to read books about foreign lands, or watch documentaries and the like. However, I do love travelling in this country, and I'm off on my own for a weekend tomorrow; just to a nearby county, but it's still getting on a train, packing a small bag, arranging accomodation, the lure of the ticket office...........all the things that go to make and exciting few days. Fro me, like the saying goes, the travelling is just as important as the arriving.
I'll report back early next week :)
Bon voyage :)
