Lust, Murder, Greed.....Temperance!

Yes Fake Bush was good especially in the costume department - a change after each song. The word unitard re-entered my vocabulary. Red velvet unitard with red chiffon wings attached to arms and legs, bridal dress with rose wreath, babooshka outfit etc. lots of gay men singing along idolising her every word.

Since then I've been ill (on holiday)- it rained non stop and I blew my nose non stop but the kids loved it. 

Today it's my birthday I must get ready for restaurant luncheon. Also I am just booking a Victorian evening "Come into my Parlour" where Victorian attire will have to be considered - I am looking forward to an evening of Lust, Murder, Greed,Temperance and the Supernarural + Assorted Bizarre Curiosities!

Just what the doctor ordered!

Fake Bush and Pansies

My hair can't handle even semi permanant colour coz it goes rather straw like but I've found a new L'Oreal colour called Colour Pulse which lasts 8/10 washes which is more gentle and doesn't wash out immediately.

It is important that I must have long red crimped hair tonight as I'm going to see Fake Bush (Kate Bush sound alike Lucy Bundy) at the Jooglebury in Brighton.

So my advice is dye your hair and plant some pansies to encourage long lingering (wuthering) days of summer.

Also get a cowboy hat, in readiness, to shade your eyes from the blinding sun!

Oh and get a cheap weekend break - we're going on one tomorrow on a half price deal which I found on our UK family holidays site http://family-holiday.mirandasbeach.com/

 I'll let you know what Fake Bush was like..... later!

Still Hibernating

Festival season coming up!  I just got my Brighton Festival brochure
today....which reminds me I must top up my burlesque wardrobe for the
Spiegeltent www.spiegeltent.net events. That's in the warm half of
spring, in the meantime I've just ordered some (on sale) sheepskin
slippers from www.thenaturalshoestore.com because my old ones have warn
out - they are so comfortable and warm and I wear them everyday even in
the summer when my feet are still chilly from sitting bear foot on the
beach as the sun goes down. But I do enjoy cozy nights in with the fire
blazing at this time of year - still in hibernation...stir crazy!

Spring

 

It's spring today, first day of March. I'm beginning to feel perky. The sky is so blue and my spirits are lifted. But it's still so cold. My winter coat and jumpers feel shabby and heavy. I want to walk about in the hot air wearing light, nifty garments wafting in the sunshine, walk to the beach and swim in a warm sea. I'm waiting ...come on globe warm up!
