Retired from Civil Service HR. Worried about the state of the World and angry that politicians don’t seem to care. Probably be described as a ‘wokey lefty’!!

It was an extraordinarily bad speech and those cheering, clapping and ‘whooping’ are as mad as she is! Everything she ran down, her party was responsible for but as she has no idea on anything it didn’t stop old Kemi from banging on and on and on as nauseam!!

Just getting over our flu/covid jabs. Flu not too bad but this time the Covid one really hurt and felt shivery all day yesterday. Thankfully much better today. Not much planned today. Really need to get into the garden but the rain has put paid to that!! Enjoy your day.

Raining and much cooler here in SW London. Although dark and gloomy it is rather welcome I must admit!

Pissed off with this constant reporting on Jeffery Archer as a ‘lovable rogue’. He was a criminal, liar and chancer. Rant over feel better now.

Sorting out the house after my sister stayed over for the weekend. Change beds and do washing etc! Also make some veg soup to use up all the extra veg we got in, just in case!!! You know how it goes! Plus get flu/Covid jabs this afternoon.

Me too! Also remember ‘pig bins’. We had them at the bottom of our street and all left-overs were put in there and then collected and presumably fed to the pigs. Not sure when they disappeared though! Also remember sweet rationing.

Turned the waistband of my skirt over to make it shorter and folded my ‘Juliet’ school cap in half to accommodate my ponytail!! 😂😂😂

Worked on it for several years. Fun show to do and enjoyed working on it at Thames TV Teddington.

Finishing off preparing curry lunch for the family. Been a while but it is GDs 16th b/day weekend and I thought it would go down well. She requested; Bengali fish curry, sag haloumi, dal, rice, Gujerati green beans and carrots with mustard seeds. Home made chocolate ice cream to follow!

Apropos nothing really just to say I love Iceland one of the nicest countries I have visited. I know the farmers are very concerned about any possible EU membership but overall I wish them well in whatever their decision is and thank them for always being so friendly, quirky and hospitable.

Oh I feel your pain. Day before yesterday woke up to seagulls squawking and inundated with flies! Discovered food scattered all over the close alongside other rubbish! I donned me gloves and got a bag and did a major litter pick of the whole close after it was just left!! Satisfying but smelly!!!

Oh yes and am grateful we were able to go. Maybe a trip back to the west coast of Ireland next time!!

I suppose I could sum it up with if you want a luxury ferry to NYC and back go QM2, or if you want a taste of an expensive care home for the elderly go QM2!!😂😂😂

Zélie @zeliea.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
It was OK. A lot had changed and it had been a bit disappointing but you live and learn. All staff on board are fantastic, entertainment was a bit hit and miss and food was a bit average. It has lost its ‘luxury’ status tbh! The weather was dire. Apart from that 😂😂

Yes loved it.

Bit difficult as we are at Brooklyn port so more like a surf board!!😂😂😂

Excellent especially after 2 weeks on board QM2 with some very obnoxious people!!😂😂😂

It was gorgeous. Iceland was great too. I have been before and it was great to be back. It rained and the eclipse was just darkness as we couldn’t see the sun! Now steaming our way to NYC and back to warmer drier weather I expect. Hoping that when we start our trip home the heatwave will be over.

Zélie @zeliea.bsky.social · 10/08/2026
On our travels on QM2. Left Norway and now visiting Iceland tomorrow all ready for the eclipse. Fingers crossed the weather is good on Wednesday. Pretty chilly up here!

Zélie @zeliea.bsky.social · 08/08/2026
In Skjolden, Norway, a high of 14 and raining. Visited a national park in Olden yesterday and saw a glacier from afar. Not much planned today. A gentle stroll into the village, weather permitting and just a mooch around the ship for a bit. Off to Iceland tomorrow getting ready for the eclipse.

Yes used to go a lot as it is just down the road, literally. Not anymore as you have to pay even just go into the grounds. Rip off and too expensive.

Zélie @zeliea.bsky.social · 23/07/2026
All done and literally dusted!! Feels so nice now. Very pleased did it!!

About to do my Pilates class in the conservatory, then a bit of a clean and sort out the lounge, long overdue but been too hot recently. Today is cooler and seems like a good opportunity! Will clean the rugs and shift some furniture around to make it look a bit fresher!

Location of my lost hearing aid about 4 weeks ago!! The staff at Blenheim Palace were fantastic, located the lost item from this map, and posted it back to me. How great is that!! No damage and all functioning properly!
