The organist at church quite often plays music before or after the service which relates to some well known person in films or television who has died.
This morning someone asked me if I knew who had died as the organist was playing music from Chariots of Fire. I said that I wasn't aware of anyone, the only person who had been in the news was Verne Troyer. He said who was that so I told him. He agreed that Mini-Me was unlikely to have featured in Chariots of Fire

 

(the organist might have been playing that because of the London Marathon taking place though that's a very different distance to the races in the film).

Good morning everyone

 

Cloudier and cooler than recent days.

 

Ros, I agree with you about the storm clouds and the horse photos

 

I'm sure Yogi is having a good time

 

I see that today's Google Doodle is for St George's Day:

To the right of George is a lion, a heraldric sign of bravery. Robin Hood makes a guest appearance as well.
Then on the left there's Titania and Nick Bottom transformed into a donkey as it's also Shakespeare's assumed birthday.
Google don't mention this but I think the skull shown is that of poor Yorick.

 

I hope everyone has a good day

Good morning everyone, a bit overcast this morning and breezy.  St George's Day still means a lot to many English people, it certainly does to me.  A smile to brighten our day.

I hope Velvet that you know that every donkey carries a cross on its back to remind us that they carried Our Lord, yes even baby donkeys

Squiggle, I wish I could say that the weather is better here but that's not the case.

 

I bought a box of M&S lemon curd bakes at the weekend and had one yesterday. The box describes them as "delicious all butter pastry, filled with zesty lemon curd, topped with sponge and lemon icing drizzle".

There was next to nothing in the way of lemon curd and minimal amount of lemon drizzle.
I won't be getting any more of them

Summer, they all went back home to Kensington Palace when they left the hospital. No name yet announced.

 

Some history was made yesterday with the birth. It's the first time that a girl (Princess Charlotte) was not displaced in the line of succession to the throne by the birth of a younger boy.  The law on succession was changed a few years ago.

Moonie, the weather here is the same as yours for yesterday, today and tomorrow. Friday is forecast to be a really soggy day.

 

Squiggle, it's yet to start raining here though it's only a matter of time, expected to start in about an hour.

Hi El 

Just had a heavy shower but the sun is out again now  

I was back from the shop and the bank so missed it 

Moonie
