Nothing Changes


 The Last of Us starts tonight on sky Atlantic 
A tv series based on a video game is about the zombie apocalypse…quelle surprise!
Nothing much changes.
I shall be watching.

I see Carrie Bradshaw is dating good old Aiden In Sex and City’s And Just Like That…. Prince Harry is still banging on in Spare about how bad his lot is..
I’m still reading it , and am now rather bored…can’t you tell?

Days off now. A cinema trip to see Empire Of Light , college, The Lesbian and Gay book club, supper at Gorgeous Dave’s. It’s a full week, before night shift again on Saturday
Nothing much changes. 


I made a chick pea and coconut curry yesterday from scratch, it was nice.
I had extra door keys cut for Trendy Carol and I sent the Beatrix Potter book to my great nephew.
The weather is cold and damp

And I long for some sun

  1. I heard a bit about him complaining that he and Meghan only had Ikea furniture. I imagine that was a slap in the face to Ikea. Their home looked very cozy from what I saw.

    Nice to have enjoyable plans for the coming week and a cozy home to enjoy when not out and about.
    I have no interest in reading 'Spare' or seeeing any interviews due to lack of interst on my part.Remember: There is no bad weather, only insufficient clothing!'

    Hugs!

  3. I don't think I will read it as I think it would depress me - there's enough negativity around x

  4. I feel like that too at the moment. It's hard work keeping going and finding something positive. Also waiting for the sun to return and heal body and spirit.

  5. It's that time of year when winter seems to be dragging on forever. At least the days are s-l-o-w-l-y getting longer, even if the weather is still crap. As for Harry, the sooner he shuts up about how bad his life is, the better. Yes, he may have had some bad things happen in his life, but so have millions of others, without the money and other privileges he has. That curry looks good, and you have some fun things lined up. There will soon be buds appearing on the trees and bulbs popping up - please!! xx

  6. I think there are many other books I'd gain more useful insights from - Spare sounds depressing and whining. You've more profitable ways of filling in your time John - like studying, or meeting a friend for coffee! Your curry looks delicious - cooking some freezable meals for when you're working would do too!

    I think I'll give Spare a miss.

    That sounds like a busy week - a great kick back to the dullest and most depressing time of the year.
    And Horrible Harry does not help matters. Having had a sister in law who resented her brother being born both male and older than her for all her life, he has clearly been carrying this burden of his own psyche all his life too. I think the family did well protecting him from himself for so long. And much amused to see today's headline that the so called feud between the brothers started with William getting more and better breakfast sausages. How sad and unnecessary this all is. As comedian Frankie Howerd used to say - "snigger ye not."

    I read 'On the Red Hill' that you recommended and loved it.

  13. "The Last of Us" was filmed entirely in Alberta and many of the urban scenes were shot here in my city of Edmonton. I hope you enjoy the series!

  14. Nothing is ever black and white and so, I have mixed feelings about Harry and all of the royals. Growing up under a microscope and having your future mapped out must be very difficult to live with. And losing his mother...I can't even imagine.
    But sibling rivalry is not uncommon and doesn't need to be aired in public. Some of the jabs he has taken at William seem mean spirited. It is also hard to gather much sympathy when most people are worried about the price of eggs and gas.

    1. Perfectly put Linda. I echo everything you have said. He will most likely look back at his book and interview and cringe when he is more mature.

  17. I plan to watch 'The Last of Us' tonight. Thank you so much for reminding me about it. I need a new post-apocalyptic series in my life. It might help pull me through another long Canadian winter.

  23. I heard about that show, but I don't want to have to resubscribe to NOW TV to see it. If it turns up somewhere else to stream I might watch it.
