Someone called me posh the other day because I bought a new phone. It isn’t even a very good phone but it was the first time I had ever been called posh and it got me thinking about what else I could do to become posher in the future. I could look for silver suppliers, I suppose. The metal known to all good students as Ag and to Latin speakers as argentum has been strangley.

I mentioned a while ago that the dry season has finished and it hasn’t stopped raining since then. Our Paraguayan Jasmines are flooded, the garden is damp and even the dog seems to have some mould on him.

I like to learn new things each day and today I am on a roll as I just discovered that Dread Mar is an Argentine reggae group and not a feared sailor’s disease. Let’s see if we can keep on learning some more facts today. Who or what is blanchard grinding? Wasn’t one of those dollies from The Golden Girls called Blanchard? Why do I get the horrible image of her being ground by a.

Have you ever thought that it is  probably about time to try something different? I am now too used to buying the same things from the same shops and doing  the same things. This means that I need to break out of my habits and, well, do something else I suppose. Let’s start off simply with something like cigarette lighters. I have to confess that I am a bit frightened of these things. I don’t.
