Just imagine the feeling.

Watching Peter Gabriel live in Athens in 1987 and can’t help feeling that I wish I could experience the feelings that a really successful musician feels playing in front of that many adoring fans.

Tea with new (us) next door neighbours, walk into town to have a Negroni, back to supper of roast chicken breast, roast crushed potatoes and creamy mustard leeks, bottle of red burgundy.

This is what retirement is all about. 😁

Ooh, shiny!

Saw The Comet is Coming at The Engine Rooms in Southampton and just could not believe how he could play like he did without seeming to take a breath.

Price has doubled since we (very, very luckily) filled our tank a couple of weeks ago! 😳 Terrible for so many people.

I wish people would stop posting stuff from X on here. I left that cesspit to get away from just the kind of stuff that is being cross posted here. 😑

First clear night for ages. Went out with binoculars for a bit of star gazing. Moon was very bright but still managed good views of Jupiter, Orion and even the Pliedes. Not managed to see those without a telescope before. Need to get telescope put back together ready for a dark night.

We are lucky to have 6 pubs, three wine bars and two beer bars within walking distance. 30 mins there, 35 back (we live at the top of a steep hill 😁).

Smell of freshly baked sourdough filling the house this grey Monday morning. A good start to the week.

What we actually had was home made wild garlic ravioli stuffed with crab and Cornish cheese served with a pea sauce. Very green, but delicious!

Don’t fancy England’s chances much.
