Fiacre Banks @Traceyjayne Well now, I’m not the kind of man who knocks on his neighbour’s door to enquire about the laundry routine she uses for her smalls. The question of why so many drawers at one time did however cross my mind.

I find it really annoying when you are told by some organisation how important you are and how much they need you – and then when you try to respond you can’t actually speak to anyone. Recently I’ve been receiving messages from...

Fiacre Banks @Fleura 40 mile round trip and no teeth. They were appraised of my opinion - wouldn’t like them to be left thinking that I was happy.

Fiacre Banks @Traceyjayne That’s how friendly he was - he let me get that close. He also let the pheasant get even closer but that didn’t end well for the pheasant.

Fiacre Banks @Traceyjayne We had an old three-legged, one-eyed gentleman fox that called on us regularly in our last house. We also had regular visits from a pheasant till they both arrived on the same afternoon and Gregory the fox had pheasant for tea. That caused quite a...

In the early hours of what is called ‘today’, as I lay drowning in a disturbed half-sleep, I became troubled by a vague yet discernible episode of gastric distress. It culminated not in any troublesome issue from the gastric...

The roads are said to be melting in Paris - I too would melt in heat in excess of 40 degrees Celsius. That’s 104 degrees in old money and there’s no need for all that heat shooting about. Same thing happened when I lived in...

Fiacre Banks @JudyEv The French are usually surprised when I order my steak ‘au point’ - medium rare sort of. They assume I’d like it ‘à l’anglais’ - burnt to a crisp. Then I protest that I’m not English and things get confused so I order more wine.

This past week we’ve heard all about the extravagant nuptials of Mr and Mrs Bezos. And how many girls who now decry the nonsense would themselves indulge in excess and folly if they got the chance? Quite a few I imagine. The bee...

Fiacre Banks @JudyEv Oh so many people need to be monitored. So many aren’t safe to be let out on their own. However if everyone were as sensible as me … I’ll let others finish that sentence.

Fiacre Banks @judyev Paying to park irks me. All I need is to let my car sit idle somewhere, I don’t need it fed and watered, it’s not doing any harm. People are so quick to monetise.And organise.
