Se non mi baci non vivo più

Weekends fly by so quickly...

Still, the weather forecast looks fabulous for the whole of this week and the evenings are getting lighter now the clocks have gone forward, so there's some cheer in that, at least - despite being in work.

We at Dolores Delargo Towers are still enjoying the peerless Mina - see my tribute here - so what better way to start, on this Tacky Music Monday, than with another kooky number from her long back catalogue?!

Dig those hepcats, baby!

Have a good week, dear reader.

    1. It's all smoke and mirrors, dear - I'm from Wales and I don't even speak Welsh, let alone any other language... Jx

    1. There's a nice little slither of park around the corner from our offices where I go to smoke. It has the most beautiful cherry blossom at the moment, so that's a joy! Jx

  4. I'm confused...mourning at the departure? Did she die? I thought she turned 85.

  5. You bring joy to an old man's heart! Loved seeing this on a very gloomy day here in Chattanooga.

    I still get a kick out of that floozie coming in at around 30 seconds to start the battle of the bosoms, then ends up stealing the boyfriend. Just before she collapses into him, she's running her eyes up and down him like a searchlight. Poor Miss Beige Sweater didn't stand a chance. And Mina certainly wasn't spoiled for choice of men when she went back to her table.

    1. Ha! Love the soap opera on the dancefloor! Jx

      PS Mina would never have been spoiled for choice where it came to men...

  9. Reminds me of that scene in Grease at the dance contest, when Cha Cha comes along and steals Danny away from Sandy and they start dancing together and poor Sandy walks off in a huff.
