Talking pish

St Cyrus beach, Aberdeenshire, 7th November 2012

I omitted to mention on here the other week that there is a series of short interviews with poetry folk on the Passionate Transitory right now. Mine is here but there are lots of other friendly blogging types on there too. I think I win the prize for being "least enthusiastic about poetry" (doubt there is one...) and I am aware that it really isn't my first love at the moment. It doesn't really bother me too much... it will probably be back... and currently I'm not even reading prose very much (which is very unusual). Other stuff afoot... just the way it goes.

I did however fall in love with this song this week. It's a straightforward, maybe even resorting to country clichés kind of a thing. Still, I liked it... must be getting old.


And the post title today? Just one of my favourite Scottish phrases... and I suppose it could refer to my interview!

Ooh I love the Carolina Chocolate Drops! Reminds me of home...

Rachel Fox said...

Yes, I've been having a Carolina memories week because of it too! Well, North C anyway... as far as we got. We really loved all we saw of the south.

Oh, my God, she was on Jools Holland a few weeks ago! I loved her voice. Thanks a lot for that. I'll take it as my b'day present! :-)

The photo is so, so beautiful. No words to describe. By the way, I'm appropriating that Scottish phrase. :-D

Greetings from London

Rachel Fox said...

Not bad for a phone snap, eh?

Yes, it's a lovely song... have a happy year with it. I haven't watched Jools H's show much of late... been listening to radio more I suppose.
