Hello Mr Chocolate Starfish

I think this is really cute but Mr B says if I post it I will get lots of rude comments.
I told him that you were all much to intelligent and sophisticated for that.
 
I was right, wasn’t I??

Roll over Van Gogh

While I’m in sunny Yarmouth, I thought I’d treat you to some fine and emotive art work, as displayed in the well known gallery, La Cuisine de Beaufoix.
Here is Miss M’s first solo attempt at a sticky picture.

I can tell you’re blown away.
The way the wine glass sits snuggly against the maize puff is just [...]

Message in the sand…

This is incase the weather is bad and we don’t actually get to the real beach…
If the weather is good, then I’m probably buried under here somewhere with all the little sand bugs. Eughww!

Great Yarmouth’s got style (personality)…

(Anyone else in the UK remember that advert?)
We’re off to sunny Norfolk today.
Hooray.
So I searched the photo stock.xchange to see if I could display any lovely photos of Great Yarmouth where we are heading for the next week…
… but all it came up with was a picture of a vomiting old man which it describes [...]

She did what?

If you are male you might want to avoid this, but if you are strong in mind and have an iron stomach you should be ok.
Ready?
BBC News 24 have reported on an incident in Liverpool where an angry ex, Ms. Amanda Monti, did a very, very bad thing to Mr Geoffery Jones.
I can’t quite [...]

Ok.
Miss M and I are playing daft games on the bed.
I am snuffling her nose and her tummy like a dog and she thinks it’s the funniest thing in the world.
She’s laughing her little head off and saying,
M: “Get down doggy.  Get down Mummy doggy.”
I am finding it equally hilarious as when she laughs it [...]

Prompted by the fabulously funny Bellevelma from Running with Books and her post about what your monsters were as a child, I’ve been thinking about films, or certain moments from films, which have never left me.
So I decided to start my own meme/tag:
Four movie moments you have never forgotten, and why they were so memorable.
Here are mine…
1.  Awakenings
A short synopsis [...]

Yay, we had sunshine.
I can’t believe it, but my freckles and my red nose are telling me it’s true.
We’ve been so lucky as we planned to do a very brave (or stupid) thing,.
Infact, up to last night I think many people would feel we were planning something most ill advised.
You’re wondering now aren’t you…
What was [...]

Dangerous when wet

In the words of Samuel Taylor Coleridge,
“Water, water, every where,
Nor any drop to drink. ”
I have created a new verb.
‘To have rain’
We have rain
You have rain
They have rain
We have had rain
We will have rain
Arghhhhh.
We have never had rain like this in the UK before.

Gloucester [...]

Cuteness abounds

Miss M (the mad streaker) has been doing cute overkill today.
She was reciting one of her usual lists of ‘things’, and who has them, or is one…
We have done bottoms, nipples, cars, buses and more recently hair, and whether or not someone is a boy or a girl.
So we get:
M: “M got hair.”
Me: “Yes M’s [...]
