Prado Lounge, Sudbury. Great place for some me-time. Me-time much needed after a hectic Christmas and New Year. Two weeks of non-stop sorting, cleaning and recycling to clear away the debris from the previous Christmas (yes, I did find a bauble from last year’s tree still under the settee!), before the guests arrive (returning prodigalContinue reading “Silly-Savvy Diary – Me-Time in Prado”

Silly Politics – Boris’ Eggy Feet
Do I really want to go forward with 2020, when I’ve just had the most bizarre carrot on a stick dangled in front of my senses? Who, in the UK, or for that matter, the rest of the world, be it of American or European ilk, would want to egg old Boris on, as heContinue reading “Silly Politics – Boris’ Eggy Feet”
Silly Adventure – Bunny Soup in Chilton
What to do on a Sunday, when one has risen from their boudoir just in time to have missed morning service at the local spiritual establishment, and is in the company of God-fearing guests? Stand outside one’s clifftop cave with a box of orange-flavoured Matchmakers, and coax them out into the open. A winner everyContinue reading “Silly Adventure – Bunny Soup in Chilton”
Savvy Comedy – Running Order
It’s the usual start to this evening’s comedy gig, as the regular emcee, PJ, does his ‘With you in a minute – just sorting out the running order!” excuse, before he himself does a runner! (See you in the New Year, PJ!) Luckily, Josh Massen’s first up, and he’s full of compliments today, telling usContinue reading “Savvy Comedy – Running Order”
Silly-Savvy Adventure – Christmas in Chilton
Neglect. Two solid weeks of sifting, shoving, lifting, dismantling, sorting and rumbling through the mess that is my house. No posts. Zilch views. Grumbles from acquaintances about unfulfilled promises to read their writings. I am not, after all, as it turns out, Mrs Hinch! So who the heck’s going to be interested in my cleaningContinue reading “Silly-Savvy Adventure – Christmas in Chilton”
Silly-Savvy Article – Cats & Media Turds
What is it about cats? Why do the beasts have such a sense of entitlement that they take pleasure in decorating my lawn with their turds? And why do they line the turds up in a row, directly beneath my washing line? Do they do this deliberately with a view to staking a claim uponContinue reading “Silly-Savvy Article – Cats & Media Turds”
Silly Poem – Boxing Day Finale
Inspired by the thrill of seeing out Boxing Day with the weather forecast, followed up by Phillip Schofield doing strange things with a goat. Gloomy, misty and murky out there. But, if I stay in, any spin can win the free delivery of someone like you. Someone like you on a £299Continue reading “Silly Poem – Boxing Day Finale”
So Not Savvy Poem – Stuck
Stuck, tucked in, and cornered, by tree, Prosecco and book. Stuck, booked-in, and staying. Copyright owned by Jay Cool, 26th December 2019 Silly Style – Christmas with Kate & Stacey Silly Boris Romps to Power Silly Writing Tip – How to be an Anomalous Vitruvian …
Silly Style – Christmas with Kate & Stacey
Stacey Solomon in green. Princess Kate in red. Put the two looks together and what does one get? Not that I’ve got anything at all against the Christmas tree look! It’s true that I’m not so keen on the long skirt and sleeves and the great big neck-tie, or the alternative all-boobs-on-display open top; apartContinue reading “Silly Style – Christmas with Kate & Stacey”
Silly Boris Romps to Power
Ms Swinson said the result was “hugely disappointing” in her seat and across the country, as Boris Johnson romped to victory with a comfortable Conservative majority. (Andrew Griffin in ‘Live Comment’) Romped. Why? Surely, I am not the only non-religious Brit, to wake up in horror this morning at the realisation that I will beContinue reading “Silly Boris Romps to Power”
