Musing

Looking forward to getting out again. Really enjoyed Sparkle in July. Since then there was a riot in Manchester and The Village did not escape by all accounts. I was really sad to hear that, but it seems there have been some positives to come out of the chaos.
In The Village I have seen there will be something on, to commemorate the 10th  anniversary of the September  11th atrocity. I'm sorry I won't be able to attend. I like many other people remember that day so very well. I remember being stunned, shocked and horrified by the unfolding events. New York is a city that I have a great deal of affection for.
I am continuing with the zapping and now  the weather is not so good and does not look like it will improve I am thinking about starting on my face and neck and attempting to get rid of the dark hair. Nothing I can do about the gray hair.
Well I am off to make a pot of soup, finish a couple of drawings. Tomorrow I have to get a pot of wax and turn into a lobster again.
Life is good at the moment.

Never thought this band would do this.

Just  been watching the programme on Sky Living, 'Sex Change Soldier' about Jan Hamilton and her transition. I must admit I shy away from these programmes, but I watched most of this one. Her story was splashed all over the press because she was once a paratrooper. That's about as macho as you can get. What she suffered during the process was horrendous. It was painful to watch and seeing some familiar places she went back to didn't help.
An amazing brave woman I hope life is treating her well.
