A new river ~ ~ ~

Well faithful and supportive Reader... here you have it:


The NEW LOOK for the future... or until the riverman~~~ decides to start a new meander...

Firstly, thank you Se7en http://www.blogsgonewild.net/ for being the patient soul you are and carefully trawling your inbox for the daily snipetty directions and ideas flung your way for the last three weeks; for answering my inane questions over this week; for doing all the things to this page that I most definitely could not do on my own being the tech-klutz I am... and finally for a job well done!

And in commemoration of this new beginning of sorts, I will leave this post short and sweet (all the more so, because I have to rush out now for my evening jog and get back before the Apprentice starts on the box -Yeah... yeah.. I am sad!)... and soI will leave you in the company of snap-shots ... and to the music of a beautiful lady on the side of this Blog whose black-magic-voice sums up a sleepy summer weekend! Which is what this weekend was... especially when I woke up...


...on a Saturday morning, and discovered a National Geographic moment in my garden... Yes! Fox cubs frolicking in the (yet again) overgrown grass in my garden. Mommy Fox had probably gone scouting the dustbins, and left "Foxy, Moxy and Bushytail" to run riot in my garden and create a Beatrix Potter moment... Sweet ey?...





... but I had to give up my Attenborough moment...

... because Gary and I had to go shopping for music and a bass guitar, and over the course of three hours, we explored a ghetto of tattoo parlours and music studios and came back with a little stack of songs to practise... but not before...












...Asako and Kalam had their birthdays... and like everyone they invited to their parties, they remained 26 years old...










...and thanks to all the poison I drank that night, I had an excuse to have my fry-up on Sunday morning...








... and then go on to meet Mel and Gary in the Docklands, where Gary played his guitar and scared a few tourists... and made a few fans...


... and so the weekend ended with the sun in my eyes, guitar in the air, and plans to do much more next weekend... Very very much more!

And so for now, I leave you Feeling Good...


Birds flying high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Reeds driftin on by you know how I feel
Its a new dawn
Its a new day
Its a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
Blossom in the tree you know how I feel
Its a new dawn
Its a new day
Its a new life
For me
And Im feeling good

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, dont you know
Butterflies all havin fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done
Thats what I mean
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me
And I'm feeling good.

Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel
Its a new dawn
Its a new day
Its a new life
For me

And I'm feeling good.

Riverman~~~ said...

Sure thing Jammy, and glad you like it Jackie. Keep yourself free for the 10th!

Are you jamming at Fopp tomorrow? What time do you get on stage?
Jammy

Riverman~~~ said...

Doors open at 7.30 pm, but we will probably be on stage at around 9 pm. Suits you?

hey there! i like the new look; pretty cool. on my end of the ocean, some of the tv stations even have a countdown clock for paris hilton's impending incarceration. heh.

Riverman~~~ said...

Yep... Paris is BIG news... and big news everywhere but in Paris it seems. A French newspaper actually had an angry editorial on why she had been named after the Grand Old Nation...

Too bad you are not here for the 10th though... it is looking to be a grand party!

Unknown said...

yea, it's a pity i can't take leave from this place to hop over to ur end of the ocean. r u gona video the wild party and post it on ur blog?! =)

Riverman~~~ said...

Can't video the whole thing, but will definitely post some evidence of the impending carnage!

Unknown said...

And that's a promise! =P

By the way, I note that the wild bank holiday weekend party as evidenced in the next (latest) post is clearly but a mild rehearsal of watz to be expected on Jun 10th! Party and, more imptly, experiment away!
