Ohhh, there’s just nothing like the scent of old, mouldering books to make you feel at home in a library, so when you’re feeling lost while sitting at your desk, paging through the latest electronic information source, why not blast a spray of this around, and think back to happy times spent researching obscure points, buried in ancient texts…
Other varieties available…maybe 😉
I think in this case, the badgers win…
Apparently they’re asking for a solution for their badger problem. I do happen to know that, although it’s illegal to move a badger without a proper licence, or “interfere” with it and its sett, if a young badger does happen to move in somewhere inconvenient (say…under a joiners workshop), and try and establish its home there, that a period of full-volume dance music / cheesy local radio, played through speakers in that workshop while in the course of using it for the established business seems to be a good encouragement to those wandering young badgers to move along to a more serene location to establish themselves in… 😉
….I got rid of the mail pile, and made big advances in the ongoing game of “Chase My Own Tail” :0
Lo-fi librarian tagged me as part of Information Overlords meme, and has therefore forced me to reveal my terrible taste in music. I admit it, I’m a pop princess, and have a disturbing love of 1990s pop at that. Fiendish lo-fi, fiendish! If I’m ostracised from society for this list, I shall blame you!!
So, the challenge was to name my top 5 favourite bands beginning with the letter ‘S’, so here goes…
This one is because my Mum used to delight in singing along to this any time she had me and any of my friends trapped anywhere, like in the car. I could claim that she was trying to encourage healthy discussions in that area, but realistically, she just enjoyed embarrassing lots of pre-teen girls.
I worked for a summer in America in a theme park, first as a landscape gardener, then as a ride operator when the bulk of the staff went back to school after the summer break. This song was the last one played every night, and was a sign for us it was time to shut up shop, and head off home. Happy days!
So many of her songs that I love, but this one is just…fun! Also another from my American summer.
Is best heard at full volume in a club, so you can sing along badly and nobody will hear 😀
Makes me want to find a field to run through, trees to climb with a treehouse in them, and a swing to play on…
I would tag 5 other bloggers, but my brain is in meltdown, so I’ll just say that if anyone wants to do this, consider yourself tagged! 😀
