The quiet English Sunday is an opportunity for sober reflection of the big issues of life and the prolonged digestion of the issues and outcomes of our current affairs media.
Today we have mulled over:
- The merits — or not — of the lamb chop, roast potato and minty peas smoothie;
- Queen Victoria's moustache cup; and
- Cats' bottoms.
Indeed, very worthy topics.Not necessarily interchangeable, but worthy.
ReplyDeleteKevin, I know Ziggi was a reader of this blog. If you'd like to know more she has cranked up a new blog here

Dear Kevin,
ReplyDeleteBritish Sunday - celebrated in songs of some bands in the Sixties - is still an institution? Here they ruin the 'seemingly' useless Sunday (they cannot sell anything) by opening up oh so many stores as an "extra Sunday treat". A little ennui - and such interesting topics as yours - to discuss - are balm for the soul!
Mmmmmmm...strokes chin and looks quizzical.........
ReplyDeleteI'll settle for the lamb chop - with apple jelly please.
ReplyDeleteThere are definitely too many cats on the interweb all ready. Bottoms are a different matter entirely
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing that lamb doesn't go with. Try lamb trifle - seriously.
ReplyDeletewe serve those smoothies at the gimcrack
ReplyDeleteBig thanks dinahmow. Fingers crossed for her.
ReplyDeleteBritta: not so much these days -- the shops open after mid-day but we're generally weekend slugabeds and end up having this sort of conversation before finally admitting we have to get up.
libby: probably for the best
Pat: and hundreds and thousands?
Nota Bene: my sentiments entirely.
Boyo: cf my answer to Pat.
