I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For ~ U2

My Baby Just Cares For Me ~ Nina Simone Bet that made your day, Muggle! Did you ever see him again?

Impressive list! Billion Dollar Babies ~ Alice Cooper

I got an email to say they were closing (I must have joined one time) and I was sorry for you all too. It's really hard when you get to know people so well over time ... it feels like losing family 🥺

I just KNEW you'd love Flavia! So happy

I second that and would also include crocheting, and spinning wool. Probably not when you're first learning though ... that can be pretty trying on patience

Rhinestone Cowboy ~ Glen Campbell (I suspect you have quite a few singers autographs, Muggle. I remember you saying Dave Matthews lived quite close to you at one time and you rode with a famous singer in a taxi, I think?? ... whose name escapes me )

Let us know what you think, Chrissy. Muggle recommended them to me originally and he's never put me wrong yet, in fact some of my favourite books are ones he's suggested. And you got me onto the wonderful Jodi Taylor books, more all time favourites I think you'll find Flavia a delightful character, she's certainly one of a kind.

Just a wee suggestion, Chrissy. Have you read the Flavia de Luce books by Alan Bradley? I think you would love them

Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys Waylon ~ Jennings and Willie Nelson

Forever Young ~ Bob Dylan

Anyone Who Had a Heart ~ Dionne Warwick

So happy you've got your reading mojo back, Chrissy I've been enjoying books set on the Home Front during WW2. Perhaps it's the courage, humour and resilience of people being constantly bombed and putting up with so many deprivations that's somehow comforting and reassuring, especially with how things are in the world at present. Just finished Spam Tomorrow by Verily Anderson, and now reading Nothing to Report by Carola Oman.

Remember the Name ~ Fort Minor

On Every Street ~ Dire Straits

Atticus Finch

Always Look On the Bright Side of Life ~ Monty Python

Poor Boy ~ Split Enz

What Shall We Do With the Drunken Sailor? ~ Irish Rovers

Matthew and Son ~ Cat Stevens

Mr Sandman ~ The Chordettes

It's Anzac Day here ... In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie, In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields. In Flanders Fields ~ John McCrae, 1914

Take a Letter Maria ~ R.B Greaves

Morning Has Broken ~ Cat Stevens
