Vogue is one of my favourite songs by Madonna because the song lyrics mention BOTH of my daughter’s names in it. π Catherine & Lauren. The song was released in 1990, before either of my daughters were born. It is a coincidence that their names feature in the song.
I enjoyed afternoon tea at Notcutrs today before a walkabout at Ferry Meadows.
Whilst walking around Notcutrs, I saw this lovely display. I would love one of these in my garden. I have a very small garden, but I would love to fill my garden with some pots and a pergola like this one. It’s very nice.
It was a beautiful day, walking around Norwich during the Easter break.
I stopped at this church to light a candle in memory of my father as his funeral was at Easter weekend a few years prior.
The floral displays were so pretty. It was so lovely to browse in an antique shop. Ah! I can remember Beano πI came across this lovely painting in the art section. It caught my eye. π
I ate pizza at the Showcase Cinema this evening before going to watch the film “The Magical Faraway Tree,” which is a British family film based on Enid Blytonβs classic book. It follows a modern family relocating to the countryside, where they discover an enchanted tree with magical residents. The film starred Andrew Garfield and Claire Foy.
I am a child at heart, and i feel that this film would probably appeal to children aged from 5 to 92 yrs old. π
I loved the December 1978 film Zorro, which starred Catherine Zeta Jones (who I named my first daughter after, as I loved the name), Sir Anthony Hopkins, and Anthony Banderos.Β
The photo below was captured by a friend on my birthday when I was aged just 21 years old. I was so CZJ.
I can recall learning to touch type on one of these typewriters only a few years ago.
I learned to type on our family typewriter. It was an old Imperial model, which required frequent changes of the ribbon. If you wanted a copy of your letters, you would use carbon paper. Making a mistake was quite challenging; correction involved using a typewriter rubber, which left small smudges on the page, or Tippex, which left white ridges as it dried.
It is remarkable how much technology has advanced since then.
Technology: We initially found electric typewriters impressive, then moved on to word processors, and later experienced significant excitement with the advent of personal computers. What next one wonders? π
Well, men and women can fly to the moon now. Therefore, will modern technology rapidly change change over the next 20 years? Watch this space! π
