All right, all right, I have almost let this blog die in the last four months or so (and was barely keeping it alive for some time before that). I've been thinking about what it's for, and haven't come to any world-shattering conclusions except that I would like it to remain a rag-bag of depression and its temporary remission, strange experiences I have had and funny things I have seen and heard. There may be a new, bigger, all singing and dancing blog emerging some time next year but first Christmas has to happen, and it won't unless I make it (although The Grouch, bless him, does most of the Christmas cooking which lifts a great burden off my often tense shoulders).
In the meantime, I just have to share with you two recent Freecycle offers I encountered:
First, 'OFFERED: Quarter size violin in case'. In case of what, I wonder? The sudden arrival of a midget violinist?
And second, and to quote Teresa May I am really not making this up: 'OFFER: Two colourful poufs'. I could certainly do with those to brighten up my house! Can they come for Christmas and entertain my guests?
