My Corner

It's a natural human condition to be fascinated in other people's houses.
I have known people that "pretend" to be interested in buying a home just in order to have a good "nose around", having said that, most estate agents provide a full portfolio of internal shots of a property that ticks that need box very well
I know when a blogger I follow photographs a dog looking cute in their living room, it is the living room in the background that gets most scrutiny by me ( its amazing just how much you can see when you can zoom in to a photo with an ipad!)
Isn't that a normal obsession? and not just a middle age gay one?
answers on a postcard please...

and so I'm setting another competition.
Not one as comprehensive as the postcard challenge ( I am still considering what to do with the 600 or so cards I received earlier in the year) but this one everyone can take part in with the use a brief attachment via email.

So Please Send me a photo of your favourite part of your house with a small accompanying paragraph saying why you love it so much? It may be an office area like mine, or a hideaway bedroom or a favourite arbour in the garden...anything you like
just send me your "place" in an attachment via email to jgsheffield@hotmail.com

The above photo is a snap of  my "office" corner in my new kitchen
Here I  plan my future.
Here I listen to the radio with a coffee and my blog most mornings
Here I practise my choir songs with the CD provided by choirmaster Jaimie (now without his 1940s moustache 🙁)
Here George spends most of his poorly days cooling his tummy on the lino beneath my John Lewis table.

My Anna Madrigal

I think all of us have our very own Anna Madrigal, especially when we have played at being our own Mary Ann Singleton  in The Tales of [ our very own ] City 

My " Mrs Madrigal " is a man ....a wisecracking, verbose and delightfully arch man of a certain well kept age who has the hips of a snake, and the tongue of Eve Arden

We have been friends for two decades and I love him deeply.

I needed him today, and with a gap of a hundred and three miles, our own busy lives and a serious illness between us he rang me on spec with a sassy diatribe, some common sense  and a warmth that almost made me weep.

Thank you for today bel-ami, your timing was impeccable !!!!
I love you man x
