R Sings of Ulysses

R gives us a demonstration of his 9 out of 10 point winning performance in the It's a Knockout music test.

           I can only presume he did not burp during the original performance, or points would have been lost.

Our cat Lemon, Leaves Fall Upon Her...

BROCANTE!

Decluttering
It's that time of year, when we empty all our rubbish out of the basement and take it to the marketplace at Houilles the Unpronouncable,  set up a table and flog it to passers by.  Up at 6am, first customers 7am, pack up 7pm.  It's hard work for a few Euros but good for decluttering, the morale, recycling and pleasant exchanges.

Street transformed into street sale...

Recluttering
The risk is of course that you are tempted to buy replacement rubbish at a very reasonable price.  A theme runs through my purchases, could it be that I am a multi-colour magpie?  But a delicious pleasure...
