Five songs to live your life by

Sunday, September 11, 2011

I got memed by lovely Ellie aka Insomniac Mummy, and it’s the kind of meme I love ‘cos it’s a music one. Five songs to live your life by. That simple. So here are mine. This song gives me goosebumps. In fact it gives my goose goosebumps. I want to love like this and be loved like [...]

Minging

Feeling a little melancholy tonight. I’m a bit hormonal and missing my kids in the day time I think. I’m so used to having Miss M chattering away beside me, and instead I have this tired little person who is either grumpy or completely manic and hurling herself around like a mad child. [...]

There’s something so cool about loving a band when you’re 18 and still loving them at 34. I’ve grown up with Supergrass and they’re one of the best bands I have ever seen live. In fact, Supergrass at Rock City was our honeymoon. We got married when I was a 24. We were both at Uni, me [...]

Jo Whiley – My World in Motion, a book for the 90s indie kid?

If all has gone to plan, I am at The Big Chill Festival with Misses E and M. So while I’m having my own musical interlude, I thought I’d share another one (of sorts) with you. As I’ve mentioned before, oohh about 8 million times, I was a 90s kid. A 90s kid as in I was [...]

I want you to do something for me. I promise there are no Space Pirates involved this time. You see, at Chez Beaufoix today we are having a sing song. We are having a sing song because I have some good news and am choosing to reveal it through the medium of music and [...]

Firstly, HAPPY FATHER’S DAY DAD. Love you loads, and thanks for all the time you’re spending on finding the right car for us. It will be a life changer and we really appreciate it. And thanks for being there for E and M. It means the world to them, and me. Yesterday was such a good [...]

Tonight we are off to see the lovely McFly. They’ve been one of Miss E’s favourite bands for quite a while, and even her Daddy approves of them as they play their own instruments, write their own songs, and can kick out a good tune. We booked this evening’s entertainment a year ago when our [...]

Miss E at The Albert Hall

According to Miss E I need to send you all to memoryerasing.com as I used part of Miss M’s real name in yesterday’s post. It’s gone now, but it is something I try to avoid so I’m a little peeved with myself. I blame it on a migraine and blumming hormones. (As usual.) Miss E has [...]

So, was it good? 10 years ago I wouldn’t have imagined I’d ever attend a “mainstream” music event. I suppose like most young people I was in awe of the world I was discovering and the fact I’d found a place for me in it. I was relieved I had found music I could be passionate [...]
