If you're feeling isolated and in need of company, do not look to a goshawk. Parrots are better. People are even better.
No matter how hard it rains, pheasants do not get wet.
Hornbeam is Pluvialis' new favourite tree: there's an avenue of 'em near this new house and driving through it is intensely lovely. Worrying that it's become a bit of a highlight of the day.
In December, I am the big bad scary person: I am interviewing would-be students who want to read Philosophy, and would-be students who want to read English. I'm a historian.
I am teaching practical criticism classes (no jokes, please) to final year English students this year. I'm a historian.
There's going to be a Gatchaman movie!
It takes a long time to move house when you're using a saloon car as your primary vehicle.

Enjoyment of a beautiful tree lined lane SHOULD be a highlight of your day. I hate moving, no matter what is used to do it.
G-force? The Fiery Phonenix?! Pure tv sugar to one 8yr old boy - can't believe I'd forgotten it til now.
Trans-MUTE!
I learn something new every day:
I never got it when I was a kid on a pig farm that G-FORCE was a Japanese show.
I had no idea there were five other versions of it.
I did not know that an actress who voiced "Princess" has two of my names!!
I do know that my sister and I debated which one was cooler and cuter- Mark or Jason.
Your last point choked up my throat.
Well, little girl Pluvialis thought Mark. But grown-up Pluvialis? Jason all the way.
Jason- so conflicted. I know.
Jason. Definitely Jason. But now that I know I got the spoon-fed BOTP version, I must find the original Gatchaman..Netflix here I come.
And just realized why I had memories of being 8 years old and demanding to be called, "Princess" -- I'm still embarrassed, but now that I realize I didn't think I was royalty per se, I feel a little better.
