Summer-Time Blues!

Why is it that during August the very month that you want to meet up and catch up with friends you haven't seen for ages and get out and about with them - they bugger off without so much as a bye or leave or even an invitation to join them on their summer holidays to glamourous places with the parting words see you in September....... Leaving you like Billy No Mates with an unfilled list of places to see and go. This is Mrs Kate signing off feeling abandoned fed-up and un-loved -.boohoo!
Tonights music takes me back to happy holiday memories of Spain and Ibizia.

Take It Easy!! (Not by the Eagles!!)

An Essence of Summer

In celebration of the lovely sunshine today - here is one of my favourite songs of summer - takes me back to my first holiday abroad in Majorca in the summer of 1978. This is the unplugged version with an Eric Clapton solo for the first 2 mins...Enjoy!

In Search of Summer

As summer seems to have deserted us for the present.
I thought this might cheer us all up a bit!

Manic Monday

Why does Monday come around so fast? I was reminded of the Bangles 'Manic Monday' track as I was rudely awoken by the alarm - right in the middle of a rather hot dream - well I was just about to get into a steamy hot tub with.?? Well that would be telling !!
....I love the line about kissing Valentino by a crystal blue Italian stream - sounds like the ideal holiday destination.

A Weird Night....Missing our friends..

Managed to get out on Saturday night but unfortunately there was a weird vibe in the air and far too many people around intent on getting drunk and fighting.

Neither K or myself could get into the dancing - the music seemed 'off' (maybe due to my downloading loads of 80's music earlier in the day due to extreme boredom). The only way to enliven the evening was by baiting the 'admirers' by making up bizarre false names such as Lady Penelope Pursestringer, and Felicity Flugelbinder.

We were both missing our special friends sooooo much and this track- again by the beautiful and talented Janet Jackson sums up our feelings - hey it even looks like Canal Street on a Saturday night!!! This is for you my dears...Can't wait until we meet again!

Music...... To brighten a rainy day!!
