Can I recommend yet another biography………………………
This time its by errant English eccentric and sometimes chef - Keith Floyd , and its entitled - Floyd - Out of the Frying Pan in to The Fire , and needless to say its so interesting , I’ve read it cover to cover in a few days .
I can see why Keith was the person he was , after reading this book , and this was brought home to myself yesterday , when joining an unexpected small family reunion last night .
My dad is due to go in to hospital for a minor operation , so I went over to see him , not knowing my sister , who I haven’t seen for ages , would be there , and a mere five hours and several hundred stories I’d half forgotten – later - I escaped :)
This particular evening was so full of personal highs , lows and the odd tragedy , it has inspired me to write a piece of prose I will entitle - Home , which will take a while to finish , considering all the elements this will contain .
People often say I don’t say a lot about myself on here , mainly because I havn’t got the usual lists of likes and dislike - I suspect , but if you take a little care to read my stuff and look at my photographs , it actually speaks volumes about me …..
…………….oh no I’ve given all my secrets away ………..!!!!!!....................:)
I’m actually sat here writing this at 8.21 in the morning , eating an apple with a
Union Jack sticker on the end of my finger , bearing the legend - Cox , which is the type of apple and not rude - I hasten to add :) .Mulling over the wealth of info from last night and thinking I must write it all down because I’m sure to forget it all , the problem being is I cannot seem to access the floppy disc all my previous stuff is on – and any help on this problem would be appreciated :)
Talking of help - a big public thanks to all of you who have written to me re’ my Photoshop file conversion - still not sorted - hence the empty space , which if it stays much longer , I’m thinking of calling it ……..Global Paradox :) ………..
