Oh yes @Fairygirl that advent calendar is just for me 😁 - probably should have made that clear! 😂 To be fair, even the seller marketed it as for that purpose! She must have been in cahoots with the vendor of the flavoured gins!
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
FG - I loved Graceland but for the Ladysmith Black Mambasa bits and African rhythms more than anything else.
We have an advent calendar AR but it's definitely a kids' one for choccies for Possum altho, as she won't be here until the 22nd I could put in some naughty chocs for us.....
Watching our recording of SCD now and then the results.

Thanks, Fairy and Obelixx. Yes, the weather was certainly interesting - we had a small "twister" on the hillside near where we were working on Thursday morning. A pile of bracken and brambles spiralled way above our heads...
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
I am just a poor boy Though my story's seldom told I have squandered my resistance For a pocket full of mumbles, such are promises All lies and jests Still a man hears what he wants to hear And disregards the rest
When I left my home and my family I was no more than a boy In the company of strangers In the quiet of the railway station Running scared, Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters Where the ragged people go Looking for the places Only they would know
Lie la lie, lie la la la lie lie Lie la lie, lie la la la la lie la la lie
Asking only workman's wages I come looking for a job But I get no offers Just a come-on from the whores On Seventh Avenue I do declare There were times when I was so lonesome I took some comfort there, le le le le le le le
Lie la…
The Boxer for me every time.
My arm is still very heavy and I do feel ill, but sadly that could be from anything.
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team

Hmm. No trouble with that one... (It's Mountshannon, in County Clare, by the way

Though my story's seldom told
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocket full of mumbles, such are promises
All lies and jests
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest
I was no more than a boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared,
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for the places
Only they would know
Lie la lie, lie la la la la lie la la lie
I come looking for a job
But I get no offers
Just a come-on from the whores
On Seventh Avenue
I do declare
There were times when I was so lonesome
I took some comfort there, le le le le le le le

Love The Boxer ... but I love quite a bit of his writing.
Time for bed now so Sweet dreams folks ...
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
The Boxer makes me go all tingly too. And “I am a rock” has been an anthem at certain times of my life. What a pair 🙌🏻👏🏻🙌🏻
Glad you had a good time Liri - in spite of the weather. How much duplo did you find? Missing LG too - guess she is studying hard?
About to go to sleep to the sound of torrential rain ☔️☔️☔️☔️☔️☔️....and I mean serious stair rods😳
