I love ya tomorrow!

At last! The UK is expecting some lovely hot weather this weekend - and, despite the neurotic warnings from the UK Health Security Agency, we look forward to spending much time enjoying it in the extensive gardens here at Dolores Delargo Towers.

What better way to celebrate the end of another stressful week than with our most scary Patron Saint, the inimitable Miss Grace? Thank Disco It's Friday!

Have a faboo weekend, dear reader!

When I'm stuck with a day that's grey and lonely


Geranium "Johnson's Blue" is bursting with colour in the extensive gardens here at Dolores Delargo Towers, despite everything.

Weird weather. April was unseasonably hot and sunny, now May is behaving more like April should have - we basked in sunshine and 25C/77F temperatures yesterday; tomorrow it's forecast to be 12C/53F, with a drop to 4C/39F overnight! WTF?

Regardless of the sudden chill winds, the garden is throwing flowers out right, left and centre - the alliums, geraniums, iris, thalictrum, aquilegia, jasmine and fuchsias are all covered in buds and blooms. Even if we can't sit out there at the moment, it's a joy to look at through our kitchen window...

...meanwhile, it's clear that whatever Boris announces later today, we're still going to be in lockdown for a while yet. To tie thoughts of weather and self-isolation neatly together, here's another (corny) message from Postmodern Jukebox!


The dog is the star.

The sun will come out



It's the end of another frustrating week, Spring has finally arrived in force in the UK, and we have a long overdue visit from our mad Irish friend TJ this weekend.

It is also the 85th birthday of the remarkably prolific composer Charles Strouse - who wrote such musicals as Bye Bye Birdie,, Applause and Nick & Nora and the scores for Bonnie and Clyde and The Night They Raided Minsky's, and much more.

So let us celebrate the coming sunny weekend - and get ready to party! - with a most appropriate song from Mr Strouse's most famous musical Annie, featuring none other than our Patron Saint Grace Jones and her inimitable version of Tomorrow:


Thank Disco It's Friday! Have a fab one...
