This is from Surfer Today…are you ready? (my bold at the end) Continue reading →

The Furlongs who live in this house flat, are aware we are getting old.
Do we feel old? Not mostly.
We FEEL the same as we have always done – just like “us”. Continue reading →
One of the Furlong daughters is into kites.
Kites are nothing like the tatty kind with paper tails and sticky tape that we flew as poor people when I was a kid. Kites, nowadays are technologically marvellous – and expensive! Continue reading →
Oh, last night, we watched BBC 4 – The Chuck Berry concert of 1972.
I’ve always loved his music. You don’t get music like it anymore.
