I found these two videos which give a little background to The Gop and to the Trelawnyd name. He has a great voice too
Operation Dog Snot Removal
My ex’s nephew arrives on Saturday morning. Now I know that he won’t be bothered hat the cottage looks like , but I will
After seeing clients I’m racing around with the carpet cleaner,
Fabreeze is my best friend
Leo is an easy guest.
Already I’ve set him homework to see what films he wants to see that are showing within a twenty mile radius and we will make a day of it.
'Ta-Ra-Ra-Boom-De-Ay'
I remember little of my childhood,
Sometimes I wonder if that is normal
But lying in bed this morning, a song got stuck
A mind worm from god knows where
My grandmother pulling up her simple blue dress, kicking her legs in the garden as she sang her own version
“ Ta-Ra-Ra-Boom-De-Ay
Ta-Ra-Ra-Boom-de-ay!
My knickers flew away
They came back yesterday”
And I remember crying with laughter
The Class of 25
We are meeting up for drinks in a couple of weeks so I mooched off early as I hate goodbyes
It’s almost four years to the day since I planted my laburnum in the Churchyard
I remembered this on the way home
She’s a strapping young tree now, full of blossom
“ Happiness is when old men plant trees the shade of which they will never sit”
John Garrison - Never Far From Me
One of the simplest and most lovely of songs
In the library today, last day of college tomorrow.
It doesn’t feel quite real, three years of study almost
The Welsh are asleep in the kitchen chair and Bun is skipping in the garden quite alone.
Like old William before her, she’s chasing honey bees, amid the yellow Welsh poppies and the purple alliums
Like a loon
Suddenly there comes the distant rumble of thunder from across the valley
And she races for home
Et maintenant -and letting the village down a little
I missed the VE celebrations in the village Hall today
I’ve missed a lot of village bits and bobs recently and I’m sorry for that
ill health and college deadlines are to blame
I’ve put a link of Bridget’s video of the afternoon below
It’s looked lovely
Well done to all involved
Click on the link
Tomorrow I am typing up my essay that was written today , I’m doing that in the college’s satellite library. in Rhyl. My last day in college is Tuesday and I’ve bought my favourite tutor a gift of a dinosaur mug and a bag of proper coffee .
Now Tuesdays will mark my return to choir
The lisping choir made me smile today
Vacarious Pleasure
Today it’s back to normal
Sat at the kitchen table
Planning and writing my last counselling essay…
My trip to London with my sister Janet is now in its fifth year
We have seen two Royal Ballets, three musicals and have eaten well all over London
A tradition which needs continuing
Janet loves London and so do I
I also love the fact she gains so much pleasure from the effort of going.
On Friday night, I suggested we walked from Covent Garden up the Strand towards Piccadilly.
On the way we entered Trafalger Square
She had never been
And her joy was palpable ,
At Piccadilly she photographed the diving sculptures from a nearby building I had never noticed
Ok we had a fraught moment in the Opera House where she couldn’t switch off her mobile phone
But the incident made us chuckle long and hard on the way home , on the train journey from hell.
And her photo of Eros at dusk was sublime
There is a VE celebration tea in the Hall this afternoon, I saw the bunting around chapel street this morning
On the way home
The ballet was lovely not as charming as Don Quixote, but robust and dramatic with more death scenes you could shake a cod piece at
