Punjab

Had a good blow last night. Using a combination of Salt water, Oil of cloves and half a pint of Stella the aching tooth was not as bothersome.

We went through some new arrangements and one of them was ‘This could be the start of something big’ (I say that to my partner most nights!)

When it started I suddenly found I was completely on my own. Some of the notes seemed to be missing and it is only when I got home, realised that it was a duet with the second bone who had lost his part. Also in Song of India most sections lost their way and I had to wing and a prayer it to come back in again. I love these stress free nights.

Watched 2 great films this weekend. One I have seen so many many times and is the best British Film ever.

Four Weddings and a Funeral still does it for me. I can never understand why though, that when Gareth collapses at the Scottish wedding the Doctor does not start CPR??? Suppose it would have changed the film entirely if he had lived?

The other film was called ‘The Bucket List’ a brilliant film starring Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson.

Ok it is not a laugh a minute but concentrates on 2 guys who are dying of a terminal illness.

The ‘Bucket’ reference is associated with kicking the bucket and the list is of things they have never done,but want to do before they die.

Worth a watch, believe me.

One of the memorable lines in the film ‘Stars are small holes in the floor of heaven’

Talking of films and one I mentioned yesterday.

The Marilyn Monroe film ‘Something’s got to give’

I tracked some outtakes down. Although Marilyn covers well, the eyes are the windows to her soul and the sadness is visible. (click on the title).
