Song for Friday...classic

I've been singing this song to our old goat now, when I go out to the barn.

I'll tell you more about him later....

Have a great weekend all!

movie review....

Yesterday we took my nephew to the movies for his 14th birthday.

What we saw was a movie full of magic, intriguing characters,

amazing scenery, beautiful costumes and colours,

and a fantastic storyline steeped in history and mystery.

Plus it was all in 3D!

If you want to escape for a few hours to the wonderful world 

of Martin Scorsese, I urge you to see this film...

Adventure, old books, Paris, train stations, clocks, film history, magicians...it's all here...

Something borrowed...

Taking the long way home means stopping to collect those 

beautiful seasonal bits and bobs...

So much more fun decorating knowing that you scrambled down a bank

for that fuzzy, mossy birds nest...

 Or walked ankle deep in the mud to clip those perfectly cascading rose hips...

 Need some of that mint green lichen?

Yeah, you know just the place to find it...

 It may take you several hours to get there, 

but you know that getting there is half the fun!

The willow and dogwood branches show off their best colours this time of year...

Gathered together in bunches to provide a perch for the birds on your porch...

Hang a few ornaments on them and there you go.

 A great excuse to go for a ramble...take the dogs along and get festive.

And at the end of it all, you add a few fairy lights,

 stand back with rum and eggnog in hand...

A toast to Mother Nature!

 Now all we need is a wee bit of that white stuff...I always dream of a white Christmas.
