Senses working overtime #545

1 This week:

2 Reading: Unreel: A Life in Review - Diana Wichtel

Clever idea - writing a personal memoir and combining that with her television viewing history.  Great reviews too!

3 Listening: WTWMC - Tragically unhip

The amigos treat Spotify listeners to a playlist of their guilty pleasures.

4 Watching: You Don't Know Me

5 Visiting: Bluesleep in from Melbourne

Great to have Adam at Maple Grove for a few days while he visits to meet Ivy. You can listen to his latest Bluesleep album - Ghost Chatter, here.

Overtime: Anatole France

To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe.

1 Term 4, week 1:  

2 R.I.P. John Lodge

Remember me (My Friend) - on Blue Jays (Justin Hayward and John Lodge) is my obvious choice to remember him by.

3 Reading: Our Mutual Friend - Charles Dickens

4 Listening: Frog City - Southern Comfort

Try - Get Back Home

5 Listening: Diana Wichtel and Ali Mau

Jacky and I attended a Readers & Writers event as part of this year's Hawke's Bay Arts Festival. Both authors read from their recent work - Unreel (Diana), No Words For This (Ali). 

It was great to see an old friend (Diana) and hear them both talk about their creative process. I had previously bought both of Di's books, but I also bought Ali's about her family history.

Overtime: Robert Orben

Time Flies. It's up to you to be a navigator.
