@todbooklady I was actually thinking of myself being rolled into shape by Samuel Whiskers & Anna Maria in the Roly-Poly Pudding!
I wouldn't mind being on the Wheel of Fortune, if only I could be allowed to perch nervously at the top for a bit.
But I always seem to be plunging down one side to lie slumped at the bottom!

#November1st Remarkable Eric Ravilious calendar design - the mermaid seems at ease in the water; the humans perhaps less so.

I battled through rain, fog & sodden roads to reach Dorchester Abbey for this concert & it was 100% worth the effort!
The Thames Consort delivered Handel's tribute to St Cecilia & her musical talents with the most graceful applomb.

Swings & roudabouts.
The last 24 hours have been mixed. The broken tooth that appeared safe to leave for a bit developed an agonising infection (now being treated with antibiotics).
But I've just managed to book a ticket to a concert by The Sixteen in Oxford at Christmas! 🌟
