U and B Are For


UB40 actually - inspired by the wine this woman had Thursday evening - it is not the one shown above - that is a picture snagged from Twin Brook Winery - mine was an awesome Cabernet Franc - from 1998 - OH MY - the things that have happened to the wine and to me in those twelve years - I'll spare all of us!

I was last at this winery in December of 2004 - that is when I picked up this bottle - and just held it - never felt the urge to drink it - would often look at it and think back to the day that found me visiting their winery - wishing I could go back to that day - maybe that is why I kept holding onto it - but for some reason, it called to me Thursday night - I wasn't sure what to expect when I opened it - actually was prepared to turn it into salad dressing and/or an ingredient in a marinade - but I smiled at the first sip - as more of the bottle was consumed, I was so wishing the person who had been with me the day we bought the bottle could be here to share it - but...

It provided me ideas for a post - I'm trying to be a bit more post active - and often toss some around as Khyra and I walk - or even ponder some fictional pieces to throw here - but, you know how that is

So, here is the first one that came to mind for the post - and yes, you probably already hear it in your head -











B is for Bob Marley - just needed to include some of these tunes - since he had written Red Red Wine, his works came up when I was hunting UB40 songs - and well, the tunes speak for themselves









And yes, she survived the week!

Cheers!

P Is For

P is for Phil...









Or is that P for Palin?



This post was inspired by the e-mail I got for this movie -

P for PHIL's message needs to be shared -



P is for Pondering...and adding P is for Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder's covering Phil's songs and amending them a touch too:

N Is For

N is for ...

The NUMBER 3

As in 3 Doors Down...I've shared some of their songs here before BUT whilst on transport Sunday I heard



Which got me thinking I had to post it for it worked on so many levels for them and for us -

After the song wrapped up, the on-air personality mentioned THE BETTER LIFE FOUNDATION - which was something 3 Doors Down started and champions - I see this year's bands include another I have assorted releases from: TOAD - aka Theory of a Deadman -

I couldn't find a version of the song I could embed that I REALLY liked so here is one I'll link to

And for me, no mention of 3 Doors Down would be complete without some Kryptonite



So, if I go crazy, will you still call me Superman?


Cheers All!

BTW KT, this post was brought to you in conjunction with some Red Guitar - I do think I could make this my daily drink!
