Dawn thinks she’s being followed. I said “Hello, what do you think I’ve been doing here all this time”.
Not funny apparently.

Biological clock
Posted by Dawn Jones on August 7, 2007
I’ve been forcedly removed from the Il Duomo. The deafening tick of my biological clock was putting penitence of the rosary.
love and light,
Dawn.

59: Money for Nothing
Posted by Jonti Bloom on August 5, 2007
This is genuine. Not one of these fake scenes from those lightweight documentaries which are everywhere at the moment.

Desperate Measures
Posted by The Joneses on August 5, 2007
What would you do if you were starving? I mean really, truly, wolf’s at the door, hyena’s on your swing-set, starving?
Because I’ve just done something I feel slightly dubious about and I’d really like you to make me feel better about it. Please.
Love & Light,
Dawn x

Home Spanish Home
Posted by Ian Jones on August 5, 2007
I found a card in the lining of Carston’s hat - for an estate agents called 1stcallspanishhomes.com.
If anyone wants it back please get in touch.
Or if you want a Spanish home, get in touch with them.

Make do and mend
Posted by Dawn Jones on August 4, 2007
If there’s one thing in this life that I’m sure of, it’s that I would have made the single most prodigious 1940’s pin up / forces sweetheart.
Sure, I’d have mucked about with Vera Lynn but when it came to billing, I’d have been top dog - no messing.
It’s not simply a physical thing (although what I can do with a pea jacket and a saddle shoe would take your breath away) it’s more that I am the embodiment of war-time vim & vigour.
I have the stiff upper lip, never say die, roll out the barrel attitude that made Britain great. I also have a good centre of balance, so Big Band Swing’s a cinch.
Love & Light,
Dawn x

Wet cardy
Posted by Ian Jones on August 4, 2007
A wet cardy is very refreshing in this Italian heat wave. If clammy.

57: Fonzi Duplo
Posted by Jonti Bloom on August 3, 2007
Italy really is Jonti Bloom’s spiritual home:
- The best cars
- The best food
- The best clothes
- The best women
- The best football
And it’s acceptable for you to live with your mum past the age of 30.

Every step you take
Posted by Dawn Jones on August 3, 2007
I think we’re being followed.
I have been stalked several times in the past. Once solely for complementing a man on his posture.
The warning signs are back - I can literally feel eyes burning into me. Its either unwanted attention or I’m being constantly branded by a very sly cow poke.
Love & light,
Dawn x

Wargamer’s food of choice
Posted by Ian Jones on August 3, 2007
Pizza is the wargamer’s food of choice. Toga Pizza, the takeaway nearest our shop, eventually named our preferred choice “The Orc’s Bucket”, - 15″ thick crust with extra cheese, extra onions, sweetcorn, ham, jalapeño, blutwurst, prawns, carrot and melted marshmallow.
Am hungry now.

56B: Magpie
Posted by Jonti Bloom on August 2, 2007
Always a sensitive film-maker and seeker of truth, I feel that I may be touching sensitive areas. And paying for quite a lot.

Seascape
Posted by The Joneses on August 2, 2007
Everytime I raise my hands to type I’m swept away on a wave of nausea.
Everytime I think I’ve found a rock to cling to it turns out to be a carrot.
Love & light

Easy breeze
Posted by Ian Jones on August 2, 2007
The first breath of easy air after an asthma attack is like birdsong after a thunderstorm.
If you can’t avoid terrible situations, you can at least look forward to them being over.
Good luck to all of you in trouble.
