We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks

Hoo-bloody-rah for that! The weekend's almost upon us, and it's time to celebrate!

Thank Disco It's Friday!

Have a great one, dear reader!

  4. Love the gif. Is it a Voodoo ritual set on ice featuring Nanette Newman having a Tippi Hedren moment ?

    fab version of total eclipse but I would still go for our Bonnie

    1. "Nanette Newman on Ice" is a concept that someone really should have explored. Of course, now she is 90 years old, it's probably a bit late... Jx
