I went to the big Tesco again on Wednesday. I got rid of the soft recycle as usual, and went up on the lift. The first thing I got was an Artists and Illustrators magazine. Then I got 2 bottles of water. Then I went and got myself...

Remind me please, why does money have to be squandered celebrating the King’s birthday? Oh yes, I remember now, it’s because we haven’t bothered putting that particular family in its rightful place. We just let them go on thinking...

Fiacre Banks @thehorse I do believe so. Mine’s on January 5 but I don’t want anything quite as showy.

I took my brother out in his wheelchair today for lunch. It’s only when you do that sort of thing that you discover how well or otherwise a town caters for wheelchair users. Bayeux is reasonable although there are a lot of cobbled...

Fiacre Banks @ineeddentures He loved getting out. Hasn’t been out for a few months because his wife’s not able and his children live 300 miles away. He (and she) just moved to Bayeux so know no-one. Hope to come again in October. Must bring my own shock absorbers.

I went to Tuneless Choir again on Wednesday, and it was my fifth week at Tuneless Choir. These are the songs that we were supposed to be singing, that were sent to us by email:- Wellerman by [i]Nathan...

Fiacre Banks @sharonelton I do like the version of Sloop John B offered by Me First and the Gimme Gimmies. Is the sound your choir makes really as callithumpian as its title suggests?

Bayeux got a really good soaking tonight when an almighty thunderstorm broke at about 8 pm, just as we found a restaurant to eat and shelter in. it was a really good downpour following on the heels of a torrid afternoon. During...

Fiacre Banks @sharonelton I did my shop in Carrefour supermarket in Bayeux. Nothing exciting, just milk and water and biscuits.

Our war is against the leaders, more specifically, Armed forces of Pakistan. Why would we destroy crops and make the country poorer than it is already? 45 percent of people there live below poverty line. By blocking water, we...

I saw something on Bing earlier this week asking whether you should use seat covers on couches or chairs. 67% said no. My grandmother once had throws over her couch because it was well worn out. But I've never seen anything...

Fiacre Banks @looeyville I would definitely use them if my guests were given to taking off their clothes when they arrived anywhere and proceeded to set their bare bottoms on my couch. However I don’t often have that kind of guest round.

I’m up and about right now at 4.30 on an excellent morning because there’s a rooster crowing nearby. These noises of nature bother me not, but if the noise were generated by human lack of consideration (music, cars, talking etc) I...

Fiacre Banks @judyev in a 1st class carriage from Paris to St Malo last year a man started typing on his laptop, all clickety clack. I found it very irritating and another man told him not to as this was first class. He put his laptop away!

This little house we’ve rented in Bayeux (of tapestry fame) is a wee gem. It’s just a 20 minute walk into the centre of town where the nursing home my brother resides in is - that’s why we’re here. The house is in a hyper calm...

Fiacre Banks @judyev Very narrow streets in places - wouldn’t fancy trying to navigate them in a motorhome.
