he smiled at you
like he knew all your secrets
Tunes on Tuesday ~ Insane
when love is not tinged with madness, it is not love
This song could well be the story of my life, given that the roles were reversed. But these days I’m a very cool guy, living a really great life. I am already a winner.
Please listen without identifying too much.

after we held one another we never ever wanted to let go
Holding your fiend, your lover, the one you love is not supposed to happen in this time of social distancing. Is life wort living if you can’t hold the one you love?
Please listen thoughtfully.

don’t say that you love me unless it’s true
Government Bans Sex
thou shalt not commit adultery
~
Just as the lockdown begins to be eased in England, the government has come up with an extraordinary new regulation designed to stop people from meeting up to have sex.
No person may participate in a gathering which takes place in a public or private place indoors, and consists of two or more persons.
Sex in a public place is already illegal here, so we can’t even find a deserted beach and have moonlight sex in the surf. Of course, the stupid six foot ‘social distancing’ rule is already in place, which means you can’t even meet up with your love to kiss, hug, or walk and hold hands. Add to that the number of people who have been in self isolation / quarantine / shielding, the number of people who haven’t been able to travel any distance to meet their paramour, and you can see that the rule has been ‘no sex please, we’re British’.
Studies show that even among married couples, and people who live together, just about 40% of UK adults have been sexually active during the 10 weeks of lockdown.
Good luck on any of this being popular among the English public. Good luck with many people taking any notice of these laws / regulations. But, I would expect our law enforcement agencies to become officious sex police, and self-righteous nasty people to inform on their neighbours who they suspect of having sex.
None of this has stopped our politicians and government officials from ignoring all the rules to carry on their illicit affairs during the strictest part of the lockdown here. It’s still one law for them and a different set of laws for the rest of us.
I wonder if car sex is still illegal?
And, how have hookers made a living in the past 10 weeks?

I’m so in love with you

Please listen with love.

I would rather be here, with a close friend
Songs on Saturday ~ Lighthouse Family
no matter how badly your heart is broken,
the world doesn’t stop for your grief
Unlucky are they who have never suffered a broken heart, for only those who have had their life torn asunder by faithless love can know what true love really means.
I guess every one reading this has known a broken heart. I guess everyone reading this knows that it will get better, in time, eventually…… But a broken heart can never really be put back together again, not completely…..
I hope we have all found that very special person who can help us to mend our broken heart.
Please listen reflectively.

Bucket and To Do List.
help me to risk failure that I may discover new things
not many will know where that sunset picture was taken
It’s kind of stultifying here in the garret, in theory I’m only supposed to go out if it’s absolutely necessary, or for my daily fresh air and exercise. I can’t really leave town, and I certainly can’t leave the country at the moment, but as soon as this imbecilic and pointless lockdown is lifted, I am out of here, doing some cool and exciting things. Although, I can make a start on some of my list right now, ergo I have made a beginning on;
- Get myself much fitter and healthier, looking and feeling better. My preferred exercise is just plain walking; for me it exercises my body, mind, and spirit. Walking gives me time to think and quiet my emotions. My daily target is 5 miles, (10,000 paces as recommended by lots of fitness gurus), this morning I walked 10 miles, (20,240 paces) in the fresh air and sunshine, getting my knees brown.
- Be a better friend to those I really care about. Lose all of those defects of character I have collected over time. Be the English Gentleman, The White Night, The Steadfast Friend, and the Hero if I need to ever be that for a friend. Hey, I’m working on it.
- Get out of this place. I like travel, and I can afford both the time and the money. Just as soon as I can I’m going to California, Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona, Crete, Malta….. Probably in just about that order. I’d better leave room for Marmaduke in my luggage…..
- Buy a car. For years I’ve gotten bye with renting when I needed a car, but now I want to go out and buy something I really like. I have a short-list, and a generous budget. It will be a classic, so an older vehicle.
- Go through my clothes, shoes and stuff again. Dump anything that doesn’t really fit the cool, together, classy English guy I want to dress as, to portray. I can think of some stuff that I should never have bought, and I should never wear again.
- Learn something new, interesting, and difficult. I think I’m going to be studying practical psychology for a while, along with astronomy and astrology.
- ?????? I don’t know what goes here, not yet anyway. All lists should have clearly defined areas of doubt and uncertainty.
I should never be afraid to risk failure. WTF have I got to lose? Only by risking failure will I ever learn new and exciting things. It’s time for me to take risks ~ big risks.
Some say that making lists is a pointless exercise. And that nobody ever does anything on their bucket list or to do lists. All I know is I’ve already made a start on becoming that better man, that very cool guy, living a really great life.

Unspoken Love
how can I tell her that I love her?
The world goes around and around, time passes, people come into my life and then disappear. And now there is someone, a Lady, maybe.
They say that faint heart never won fair lady.
Please listen with hope

Tunes on Tuesday ~ Message In A Bottle
I’ll send an S.O.S. to the world
Alone, trapped, scared of being alone, at least I can walk on the beach.
If you too are trapped, write to me, put your message in a bottle, chuck your message to me into the sea, or a river, or a stream ~ the Cosmos will see that it’s delivered.
Please listen without despair.
