The Unorthodox Website Blog

My neighbor Neil, who set up this website as a surprise birthday prezzie for me, came over today to show me various things I can do with it. It will take me time before I am fully familiar with it.

Meanwhile, what has happened since my first blog on my 62nd birthday, March 20th? Not a lot. I missed Linda Gail Lewis’s gig in Walthamstow on Saturday 24th. The Victoria Line wasn’t running north of Finsbury Park, it would have taken me ages to get there and back again, I saw her gig in New Cross a few weeks ago, the clocks went forward after midnite (i.e. early on Sunday 25th) and I had arranged to take my mother to lunch with some friends later that day. So I gave Linda Gail a miss, watched some TV, and altered all my clocks.

My 62nd birthday. Doesn’t seem possible. Went to Croydon and bought the last available ticket for Colin Fry, Spiritualist medium, for his May 17th demonstration of clairvoyance with fellow medium Tony Stockwell. I am very impressed by Colin’s TV show 6ixth Sense being repeated on FTN, but would like to see him in person. You never know with a TV program how much has been edited out.

 After Croydon visited my mother and she gave me a book and a hand-made card, which was very sweet (she’d already given me money which I spent on new clothes.) We then went to the local Wetherspoon pub where she treated me to a meal.

In the evening I visited my friend Tom in his new flat near Fulham Broadway. Seems very spartan at the moment, but he’s not got all his furniture yet, or his ornaments/pictures up. Then went to a gay club nearby.
