polkadots and moonbeams

After this week's performance on Desert Island Discs I nominate "Kirsty - do you know your pretty face is going to hell" Morrissey, for making me laugh so early in the morning... And my next suggestion is Nikki from the Big Brother House a couple of years back... and in the chef's corner we should, of course, have Delia (and failing her Clarissa Dickson Wright)....

Christopher Lee.

Americans REALLY know how to do Halloween and put our puny attempts at trick-or-treating to shame... The owners of this house in Georgetown had to fight their way past a huge ghoul just to get into their house... and just look at all those pumpkins! All gone now I suppose... wonder what they do for Christmas...

I'm not going to be able to watch Downfall again that's for sure...

my sister... my little sister... making doves of peace and love for the world on the fourth plinth this evening.

Profound in so many ways...

Chelsea has the best hats but Tavistock has the best cakes. I spent more money at the Tavi show...
