Enjoy.

Could I resist:

Such a name?

Could I resist such a mug?

Of course not.

Pandora, seen by her mum

The drawing is by Artsparker. The painting by John William Waterhouse. I've taken liberties with the cropping and the colors in both. (You can click on the photo for a better view.)

el papou's blog at Le Monde, called Passez moi la Joconde! A lovely blog, funny and inventive - the way we like them (now on the links over here).

Action-Packed Thriller

In response to overwhelming reader demand (I overwhelm easily - one request is usually sufficient), mum presents this Action-Packed Thriller in eleven parts.

Title: Llama spit fight, starring Skoo, Tina and the llama next door.

Mum only watched part 1 but the actors struck her as naturals. The mountain range looks impressively stolid, the horse does a great job in a walk-on role as a horse and although the camera work is best qualified as 'safe', the film director's comment may explain the reason for that.

As to the question put by the mouse in Cleveland on her blog: sometimes the direct approach works best. I googled the words youtube llamas spitting and bingo, there they were.

With salutations to all, mum now returns to her personal lamassery on the third floor of a tiny house in an occasionally disclosed location.

Back to school

Holidays are over in this country. Children are starting school today.

As good a time as any to thank those who left comments on this blog and to inform them the Monas will not be coming back. I'll be concentrating on local events in the French part of my life and on my personal writing, in the English one.

I may post music or comments occasionally on this blog - emphasis on the word 'occasionally' and I'll continue using this avatar as my blogger posting ID.

Best of luck to everyone in their personal and professional endeavours.
