Senses working overtime #501

 1 My favourite jeans




(See what I did there?)


2 Reading: Working Class Boy - Jimmy Barnes




It's been sitting in the pile for a while. I reached for it as we are heading into Aussie rawk territory next for WTWMC - Loved Ones

My abiding thought as I read through Jimmy's harrowing childhood was - poor wee mite. 


3 Listening: WTWMC - Loved Ones




Harry Knowles has now been added to the playlist - next up for this week is Anne Marie McCulloch (who loves Jimmy and Cold Chisel). 


4 Sounds and smell: this seascape 




Last night we stayed at Patrick and Randy's gorgeous place in Taranaki. Superb stay with crashing waves, salty breeze and fantastic friends.


5 Listening: Carole King - Tapestry




Gets better with age!


Overtime:  

Roman scholar and philosopher Marcus Tullius Cicero on the value of making numerous attempts:

"For who is there who, shooting all day, will not sometimes hit the mark?"
