All awards and no knickers......

.....but aiming to add fur coat to the ensemble very soon, courtesy of Bad Lindy. Thanks, DJKirby of Wild Hippie Child and Exquisite Dreams.

Wolfgrrrl and Orchidea, would like to pass Inspirational Blogger on to you because you both offer a consistently interesting way of looking at life - though you're very different in approach.

With all those awards and a fur coat to boot, I think I'd be prepared to forgo the knickers too!

That Lindy though - tell Cultured Mum not to listen to a word she texts! Give me a good Messiah from Scratch any day, axe-murderer or no...

IB: Thanks. Bad Lindy is known for this sort of thing, so I think Cultured Mum will be OK though she has a reputation as a notorious worrier. I've never done Messiah from scratch - are they fun. Are you singing at the moment (not at this exact moment, I mean, but generally?)

Who's Scratch?

I'm overwhelmed; I've never inspired without being in a fur coat sans knickers, which means, well, never.

(No really; am truly touched.)

Thanks! :)

Orchidea: You mean you haven't heard of Scratch Handel, the slighly less talented brother of one of our leading composers? His Messiah is generally reckoned to be brilliant but utterly misguided - it's the 'Doo bee doo' solo about a third of the way through that led to his premature death when he was hit on the head by a particularly Baroque cabbage thrown by a not very Enlightened member of the audience. (That's enough Arts puns - have been seeing too much of Cultural Mum for comfort).

Oh, that Scratch. I thought you meant Scratch Mendelssohn who was hit over the head with a snapped off Piano Pedal, doused in almond oil and set alight.

Phew, what a relief!

Omega Mum said...

It's an easy mistake to make, Orchidea. Not to worry. And that's without Scratch Mozart, Wolfie's supremely untalented younger brother, whose kazoo tour of Europe came to an abrupt end when he swallowed it mid-way through 'Stairway to heaven' in front of the Archduke Ferdinand.

Yes, but he wasn't a patch on Scratch Presley, who died of consumption in 1977 and had to be surgically removed from Mrs Scratch Presley due to rigor mortis.

PS. What are you on?

Omega Mum said...

Orchidea: Same thing as you, I'd guess. Anyway, you started it. I was just trying to introduce a more elevated note into my blog with Arts. Or something.
