http://afigfromfigueres.blogspot.com/2006/12/devil-got-best-tunes.html
A fig from Figueres, Spain. Friday, December 22, 2006. Devil got the best tunes. David Baddeil the comedian and writer admitted whilst on television that having reached public school, he was all set on being a punk rocker until the day he heard Genesis on the radio and then he was [smitten] hooked. How relieved were his family? How disappointed were they when they found out it was the progressive rock group and not the good book? Nice post. Funny point about Genesis not being a book. hehe.

A fig from Figueres, Spain. Friday, October 14, 2005. While spending the night watching the recent Tropical Storm Vince doing its worst, I couldn't help but wonder about the weather. There is no distance between us. After long minutes of intense storm activity the period between thunder bolts and lightning flashes lengthened a little, I began to count . And then it struck me! Links to this post. Wednesday, October 12, 2005. With resevoirs at 35% capacity everyone wanted the rains to come, but with so muc...

A fig from Figueres, Spain. Tuesday, November 15, 2005. The Dali Theatre Museum has been open to visitors throughout August for nighttime visits. The moonlight and floodlights add to the drama of the theatre building. The cool night air and absence of large crowds or queues make it a much more pleasant experience. The contents are interesting but as with all artists the more significant of his works are spread far and wide around the world. Links to this post. Saturday, November 12, 2005. It was on one s...

I had become fascinated with the Uncle Remus stories from reading my sister Ann's books. That old Brer Rabbit and his friends were larger than life itself! I still enjoy seeing that opening sequence with the blue birds and Uncle Remus. The birds of northern. Have provided much needed company in the course of the last year. Links to this post.

A fig from Figueres, Spain. Sunday, July 23, 2006. I now have a more reliable weather forcaster or rather team of forcasters. They are the Geckos who gather each evening around the exterior lights of the Villa. Once the lights are switched on the insects which make up their food supply will be attracted to the light souce and also to the geckos. The Geckos which look like baby crocadiles, they come and go with the heat. I counted 7 last night and sure enough today the temperature touched 100 degrees!

Food technologists will be able to develop luminous pork scratchings (pork rind), ideal for the movies and other dimly lit entertainment venues. The luminous skin could be the new fashion must have. Glow in the dark leather wear would be a hit with night club patrons and possibly those in the sex industry! Links to this post. Links to this post. Barca's midfield util...

A fig from Figueres, Spain. Tuesday, October 31, 2006. Murton village on the A19 near Sunderland boasts a new shopping centre the Dalton Park retail outlet. And here I am in the centre car park just three days after returning to the U.K. for a short visit. I am looking at a car which displays an icon of what maybe the most famous Spaniard of all. More famous than Don Juan and Don Quixote even! Two of the better sketches from the show have links to Youtube video clips given here. Links to this post. Today...
