Out of This Wood Do Not Desire To Go

Out of This Wood Do Not Desire To Go

I've been trying to start this blog post for almost an hour but every time I look at this picture I hear Don Mclean's song lyrics from Vincent in my head "Starry, starry night Paint your palette blue and gray' and I get somewhat distracted from what I originally wanted to talk about. So I've [...]

This is Where the Magic Happens

This is Where the Magic Happens

Oh if only *laughs* I was showing a friend around my new house a couple of days ago and as I showed him the partially (at the time) decorated bedroom he said 'so this is where the magic happens'. It gave me quite the chuckle to myself. Oh the irony! Well, now I've finished decorating [...]

Table for Two

Table for Two

The weather in my tiny part of the UK is glorious as I write this post...sipping on a G&T while I get ready for an early dinner and cocktails with friends in real life. Just like my real life, my Second Life isn't always relaxing. Sometimes it's pretty stressful with late nights working to complete [...]

Mellow Yellow is Springing Up All Around

Mellow Yellow is Springing Up All Around

The clocks went forward in the UK this weekend starting British Summer Time and how did the weather welcome this change in name? With Storm Katie of course! Winds of up to 100 mph battered most of the south of England and Wales last night and as someone who sleeps with the bedroom window open 365 [...]

We’re on a Road to Nowhere

We’re on a Road to Nowhere

Or are we on a road to something else entirely? I made a couple of new friends this weekend in Second Life and it got me thinking about those important first IM's. I, like many people, nearly always ignore just 'hi' or 'hey' ims but if a first IM intrigues me or asks a question [...]

Put a Little Spargel in your Life

Put a Little Spargel in your Life

\o/ I got on quite a roll with decorating my 'project' for the duration of Home and Expo 2016. The Spargel & Shine home, Bocas Belle is available at the Expo which runs until 6th March and over the course of the next few weeks I will be taking time to decorate the house. Of [...]

I’d Kill for a Reverse Cupid

I’d Kill for a Reverse Cupid

We're entering that time of year when everyone loses their damn mind and goes all coochie-cooey over each other with flamboyant and public demonstrations of love. Here's my opinion... BLAH BLAH BLAH! What I would really love on Valentine's is someone to permanently take the arrow from last year out of my back so I [...]

The Six Songs Series – Part 1 – Songs That Make You Cry

The Six Songs Series – Part 1 – Songs That Make You Cry

I was reading an article on the BBC website today called '6 Songs That Make People Cry and the Reasons Why'. It struck me because just the day before I had been watching Room 101 on the BBC where the host, Frank Skinner, argued that he couldn't put the film Grease in Room 101 because [...]
