Giving blood is easy. You get time to sit & do nothing, followed by a free cuppa & a biscuit. Save a life or 3. Give blood. www.blood.co.uk

I’m sure your number 1 was in the fairy tale the “The Tinder Box”, because I wanted that too, when I was young (& still do).
Black and white illustration by Harry Clarke from 1916. A soldier in cavalier style looks from behind a tree branch while an old woman (a witch) pouts to the trunk of the same tree. There are large flowers filling the scene behind them.

Evening overlooking Harwich harbour, with Shotley on the horizon. Where the River Stour meets the Orwell. #harwicholdtown #essex
Blue sky changing to orange as it meets the horizon in the background. Sailing boats in the mid ground inside Harwich harbour, almost in silhouette. The water is dark blue. A small rowing boat is moored in the foreground.

A later film, that is one of my favourites, is “Secrets of the Incas” with Charlton Heston and Yma Sumac.

A sweary post that reads “shove 28 eggs up your shit tube, you eggy cunt” this was in response to a man explaining to a woman, what a poached egg is and is not.

Incredibly late to this (it was the last day today) but the double exhibitions of Mickalene Thomas and Linder at the Hayward Gallery was amazing. Powerful stuff from two female artists.

I became a bit obsessed with Dalby’s office in the film The Ipcress File. So much so, I bought a bud vase to match.
We are looking behind a man who is looking out of the window at Trafalgar Square. Man standing next to a window, with part of Nelson’s Column visible through frame. On the desk in front are some papers and a stem vase with blue ball base and bright pink rose. Arm of another man is just visible to the right. Man, back to camera looking out of the window. On the desk in front are some papers and a stem vase with blue ball base and bright pink rose. Stem vase with blue ball base and long stem rose in dusky pink, on wooden table. Glass door behind.

And then Hallmark came up with the best and funniest Old Maid cards ever.
A small person stands in the bottom right corner of a playing card blushing. Bashful Bobby written next to him. The rest of the card is bright orange.

Jimi Tenor, Cafe Oto. Lots of knob twiddling, saxophone, flute and vocals.
What a great evening.

Just watched ‘The Driver’s Seat’ aka ‘Identikit’.
That was a beautiful but very bizarre film.
