Sinking into the oblivion of confusion

Where will it all end?

I seem to be sinking into the oblivion of confusion! 

I am trying to cope with all of the demands related to my work and getting nowhere!

I seem to starting a task and then , getting waylaid and then going around in bloody circles!

Most of it of course, is related to the sodding bureaucracy that I need to adhere to!



Oh well that's my rant over with for now!

Martha Reeves and the Vandellas


Peter and Martha Reeves
 
The night I met Martha Reeves!  
 Ever since I heard the Temptations sing 'My Girl' way back in the 60s, I have been a total fan of Tamla Motown and Northern Soul.
When I heard that Martha Reeves was coming to Stockton, I had to go!
She is 71 years old and a 'Legend'!
As you can see I got the chance to meet her after the gig and talk to her for a while.
She sang all of her classics and every single person in the audience was on their feet when she burst into 'Dancing in the Street'.

Martha Reeves and the Vandellas
Thank you Martha! I will never forget meeting you!

GUM Department store in Moscow's Red Square

Such a beautiful building, full of over priced goods!
I have many reflections regarding my stay in Russia.
Many stereotypes have been eradicated and I am afraid some have been confirmed.
Including 'Dancing Bears', I could hardly look!
The Pushkin Museum of fine art was very interesting with sculptures from Michaelangelgo and paintings from Rembrant and Rubins, stunning!
The jewel in the crown so far has been the amazing 'Russian Museum of the Revolution'.
Very educational and also lots of memorabillia from my childhood including excellent examples of Communist propaganda.

Why are Pirates called Pirates?

Because they ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRE!

LOVE IT!
Treasure Island has got to be one of the best stories ever written!

I loved the recent TV adaptation with Eddie Izard, but I have just received the classic 1950 film with Robert Newton as Long John Silver.

Blind Pew used to frighten the life out of me, nothing has changed!!

Clearly this version is also nearer to the
original book, Black Spots and all!

Captain Jack Sparrow?

Never heard of him!
