Manics, politics, trains. Tired servant to a dog & two teens.

No Dm’s, put it on my TL.

I don't know which is more disturbing. Finding out that the catchy ditty Watermelon Sugar by Harry Styles is about cunnilingus or having my mother in law explain this to me via the medium of Charades

I Watched #DowntonAbbey tonight at the Old Market Hall in #Shrewsbury ~ My old enemy Julian Fellowes borrowed much of my 1989 creation Uptown Church . To be fair it’s a feel good movie for a time where old fashion values have been eroded.
I give it 10/10 Get tickets if you can and visit the OMH ❤️

New maternity review - Shrewsbury and Telford still in there.
Feel a bit sorry for Sandwell and West Birmingham - seriously deprived area.
I do think that there are others that could have been looked at!

I threw all my dad's Oasis albums in the bin because if I had to listen to Champagne Supernova one more time I'd have been committed.

I stood on the ancient slopes of Nordy Bank hill fort on Brown Clee and was captivated by this ethereal scene as it unfolded beneath me. A tide of mist rolled over Clee Liberty Common and then slowly spilled down into the Corvedale. It was hypnotic to watch 1/2
