7th December 2017 - Head back int he books - 3 Ceremonies

Thought for the day:"Discovered 2 things today - Kitchen Sex can be wild and exciting - and IKEA Staff are quite narrow minded"

and so we find the rules of Whammageddon - the craze that is sweeping social media ... (yawn)  but is catching the attention of the intelligensia it seems ...   How to avoid hearing "Last Christmas" by Wham as the days come up to Christmas ... Oh well!

there have been worse crazes int he past

While in less important news ...

Well - head back in the book - discovered I have an installation as well as a 2nd Grade Ceremony in Scarlet Cord where I am DC as well as a double candidate in the Secret Monitor where I am in the Chair - ho hum

Cheers - I may be gone some time...

6th December 2017 - Of Travels and Songs

Thought for the day:"I couldn't believe it today when she came home with two armchairs and a settee. I've told her a million times, never accept suites from strangers."

In my memories from last year I found these rather nice photos from Last year's Black Company Barracks event ...

And today I found myself on the ferry to the Isle of Wight for the Consecration of Wight-Land Court No 123 in Cowes. A good day and good fellowship...

From the ferry home....

A long day - but a good one

So a glass of wine and the books are out again for the Scarlet Cord tomorrow - and Secret Monitor

Ho Hum!!
