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-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 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 Comedy -Rentacrowd
Review of: Suffolk Punch Comedy Club Gig – The Brewery Tap, Sudbury, Nov 2019 Never has our emcee, PJ, stooped so low. Colin, our first comedian for tonight’s gig, has it on good authority, that PJ’s been in touch with ‘Rentacrowd’. Sadly, the coach is stuck in one of Sudbury’s infamous traffic jams – inContinue reading “Silly Comedy -Rentacrowd”
Silly Adventure – Lavenham Guildhall
I stop by at Lavenham to attend a session at the Village Hall, by author Phoebe Morgan, about How to Get Published. And after making a numpty of myself, jumping on the Phoebe bandwagon by handing out my own business cards to her audience, I sprint on out into the wilds of the village. MyContinue reading “Silly Adventure – Lavenham Guildhall”
Silly Adventure – Stranded in Cornard
Not sure what I’m thinking of but, for some strange reason, I give Hubby a loan of DD, my beloved, if somewhat unreliable, Dacia. Thinking I need some exercise, I get Hubby to drop me off at the far end of Cornard, en route to his workplace. I find myself deposited upon the pavement inContinue reading “Silly Adventure – Stranded in Cornard”
Savvy Book – Melmoth
Sarah Perry’s ‘Melmoth’. Perry’s latest novel centres around the deceased character of Melmoth, a lady who sweeps in and out of the world of the living, swishing around her black garments, and preying upon the vulnerable, repeatedly failing in her attempts to find a companion with whom she can share her eternal purgatory. Beautifully written,Continue reading “Savvy Book – Melmoth”
Silly Poem – Pink Lippy
Written whilst in Prado, looking out up at a statue of Thomas Gainsborough, lording it over the activities of the Avon lady’s market stall. Gainsborough lords it high above cerise-pink hood; a flower above all flowers – its bed of make-up puckering lips up for a kiss. Gainsborough smiles, his lips all pink andContinue reading “Silly Poem – Pink Lippy”
Savvy Comedy – Lamarsh
No mango cider? This has to be a mistake. Why am I not at my local, The Brewery Tap, glugging down one of my five a day? What’s lured me out of my comfort zone? Who’s lured me out? PJ, why Lamarsh? I’m rather partial to The Tap! Ah, now I see it! Louie Green!Continue reading “Savvy Comedy – Lamarsh”
Savvy Comedy – Three Years Sillier
Can’t believe its been three years since our founder, PJ, launched the best comedy club in Suffolk. Even Louis Green, today’s emcee, is still to make the three-year milestone! Louis, bless his silly socks, was only birthed into PJ’s world two years ago. Fabulous – I’ve now given myself earworms! The song ‘Once, twice, threeContinue reading “Savvy Comedy – Three Years Sillier”
