Baby, now that I've found you, Foundations video, I can't let you go.
Heck, Sixties music sounds better and better with every year to my old ears.
Oh I can change with the times -- look, I'm on the internet!
But I watched Thunderball tonight -- first time in 40 years -- and Sean Connery was still absolute class, as was the movie and its soundtrack. Tom Jones sang like a god.
I was in love with it all and still am.

Dear Aunty D
I have a feeling you were thinking of me. I identify with everything about the age and the sense of scorn + frustration.
And here's an example of how EMBARRASSING it is to be this age. I looked down at myself in the bath one night a few months ago and was aghast to see I'd sprouted hair down below. One day it wasn't there, next day it was. I could deal with that but I started growing breasts as well, and that meant I would have to say something to Mum. But I just couldn't raise the subject.
The problem has now been resolved, but only after another humiliation. Mum and I went to a Scottish dance on Saturday night. While I was doing some sort of fling on the dancefloor I could feel the bumps jiggling under my fair isle jersey. Well, anyhow, Mum noticed and pulled me aside. "JUDY! YOU NEED A BRA!" So I guess we'll be making a little trip to town this week.

Voice of reason in a world of madness -- obsessive slimming and beauty treatments. The blogger is a former model and knows much about eating disorders. One of her missions is to expose and shut down pro-anorexic websites. Teenage girls, especially, need to know the deadly dangers of thinking anorexia is cool.
The woman below was a model who starved to death. When she died she weighed about what
a normal seven-year-old would.
There are other stories just as alarming.

Last night I dreamed I was getting married. I was standing on a chair with my "gown" on and Mum was adjusting it with pins and tacking.
The fabric was red gingham, as in a school uniform. I asked Mum who I was marrying and she said: "It doesn't matter".
