The flow of the Darling...


Heart-warming and lovely clip from Australia!

Looking at all the politics of the issues with this monumental river, I somehow see real hope here, and listening to the happiness of a lady from the area the other night, made this film required watching!

It is heart-warming - good to see.

I'm a little bit in my cups as it were, but watching the mumuration of starlings doesn't half lift your pulse rate so let's just focus on what basics we need to survive. Empty your cupboards, chuck the out-of-date stuff, see what's left, then La Donna Mobile for a Chinese take-away!

It is indeed, Mr H!

The Aussies have a particularly inventive way of approaching distress, and to see this trickle, gladdens the heart, for them and for me!

Goosey, just carry on the way you do, you're with chums here!

Starlings have left our area, sadly...

We're well in with the sort of stuff to live on for ages yet, and anyway, I'll just go to the shops and buy what we need, when we want it all!

Raise a glass for me, and I'll do the same - I'm thinking of friends as we speak! x

I wish all well here.

There are certain mantras which I will hold on to. The main one being Churchill's "keep buggering on" or "When you're going through hell, keep going." but the best thing I've found by far is Eckhart Tolle's The Power of Now and particularly his closing chapter.

I've revisited it after 15 years and its genius now is as powerful as it was when I was first in crisis (when I started my blog.) If you're fearful then get it on Kindle and use the flash card facility to cut out bits relevant to you and reinforce the message into your being to keep you calm and strong.

Godspeed.

Elecs, your two messages just uplifted me - thank you!

When you and I chatted many years ago now, the 'boys' were about to take their eleven-plus, and now look at them!

Fabulous news - thank you!

Can you re-start E-K, or are situations the same as they were?

See you later.
