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”
Silly Book – Fairy Tales for Millennials
‘Fairy Tales for Millennials’, by Bruno Vincent. A highly-entertaining read bringing the traditional up to date with the 21st century. The witch who attempts to cook up Gretel has use of an electric blender and a thing about turmeric powder. Cinderella wants to feel in touch with the suffering of the oppressed and, as such,Continue reading “Silly Book – Fairy Tales for Millennials”
Savvy Book – Paris Echo
‘Paris Echo’, by Sebastian Faulks. I’m told that the first sentence is key to writing a bestseller. And, on picking up a copy of Seb’s ‘Paris Echo’, I know this to be true. I read the first sentence: ‘I was taking a pee in the bathroom when I caught sight of myself in the mirror.’ (p.1) Recalling myContinue reading “Savvy Book – Paris Echo”
Silly Poem – Divvy Dong
A response to Boris’ fine use of alliteration in his ‘dribble, drift, delay and dither’ drivel of a ‘Get Brexit Done!’ campaign. Boris, dithering, dipped and dripped. “Well, I’ll be danged, if I didn’t deliver!” he drivelled, demented, dribbling, and delayed.

Silly Poem – Rumblings
The rumbling gets to me in the way a not great thing grates upon a person. All of the rumbles and snorts and puffs intrude upon my sense of who I am and interfere with that which might be the continuation of myself, if it were allowed to continue, undisturbed by the inconvenience of theContinue reading “Silly Poem – Rumblings”
A Silly Poem – No Views
No views. Is business a card, distributed to many, if the many see no purpose in following it through? Have I been reduced to a card of many that produces nothing? Am I a reduction? Will someone find me, someday, in the pocket of a charity shop jacket, and will they pick me up andContinue reading “A Silly Poem – No Views”
Savvy Style – Bag a Princess!
Update on the whole Princess-Beatrice-lookalike dress on a budget fiasco! As you saw in my previous post, Princess Budget, I did eventually achieve some success with my charity shop jaunt, with a floral wonder from Cancer Research UK – well under budget at £3! It’s true enough that it was a little short and improper, theContinue reading “Savvy Style – Bag a Princess!”
Savvy Style – Legs to Love
Having a branch out! And, no, I’m talking about an extension of my mountain-top tree look … … you can take a look at my post Dear Harry for further details about that particular campaign! Today, I branched out from writing book reviews, to enter the world of high fashion (i.e. cheap fashion). Yes, I know thatContinue reading “Savvy Style – Legs to Love”
Savvy Diary – Bottle of Wee
If the environmental issues featured in this post touch a chord with you, please also view posts by my fellow blogger The Wandering Ambivert. So I’ve given up the day job! But, almost a month into my sabbatical, how am I faring? Have a made a single penny out of my blogging? No. Have I writtenContinue reading “Savvy Diary – Bottle of Wee”
