Ha - we have the lovely Lisa Stansfield belying her right good Rochdale upbringing in the intro here ...

[Hazel at the Hill]

Well, Lisa S has taken me to Chaka Khan, Ain't nobody. A defining track for all us 1980's disco chicks. .

But - knock me down with a feather - I heard an update of this classic big shoulder pad job a couple of months ago (I mentioned it, but don't expect you to remember my ravings!)

Cover versions should not be allowed unless they add to the original in some way. This one - in my view - deserves attention.

[Hazel at the Hill]

Right - got into a cul de sac there - so I'm taking that as a hint from the cosmos to sod off to bed. Meanwhile, I leave you with a catchy track I heard whilst on hold the the day. Makes a change from Vivaldi.

Nos da, peeps.

[Hazel at the Hill]

Sorry - me again - just watched that Carly Simon vid through (the film is Working Girl) and despite the Cultural Differences that 30 years brings, I am appalled at the hair!

Frizz - did that EVER look good?? (ans. btw, is no - I can vouch for that every time I look in the mirror when I've been to lazy to blow dry).

Just to go to bed on less 't'pau-esque' vibe, I'm sneeking a bit of toe tapping stuff past BB.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand - winding the string back in for another day.

Meanwhile, here's a pic of spring in the Bellagio conservatory...

[Nicos]

[Lisasbolt]

Morning all,

The sun is out and the wind has stopped going out for a stroll around a little park which has rescue animals everywhere, its awesome, chickens and peacocks walking freely trying to steal your lunch!! i will try and get some photos.

Have a nice day

Morning everyone. A glorious morning here Blue skies and sunshine. I am procrastinating, but I am going to have to make a start.
So, get showered and dressed. Strip the bed, do the laundry. Visit FiL with his food parcel, deliver at arm's length - he has shingles, poor man, and selfishly I DON'T want them. So he is staying at arm's length for a bit.

Then I think I will clear out the greenhouse, wash all the glass down and plant a few more seeds. We had rain overnight so I think it will still be too wet to do anything meaningful in the garden. I tried to fork over a bed at the plot yesterday but it was too claggy. So after some sunshine today and good weather forecast for tomorrow, Sunday will be allotment day

Then, once I have done all of that, I may go for a walk. My niece and I are walking the middle chunk of Hadrian's Wall in August, so I need to get into training!

Enjoy your Saturday.
