Inside feels raw. High tide of grief for a family I didn’t know, but who were only at two removes from me: the son and his family of my aunt’s close friends. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/amp/uk-england-oxfordshire-54521250  The nature of death shocking and numerous – four out of six dead, and two fighting for their lives in hospital. Satan on the warpath. Knowing he doesn’t win won’t assuage grief. Lord, remember them. O, Comforter, draw near.

When Love Kills is a play that was adapted by Aaf Bholim from The Thrill of Love, a play by the brilliant Amanda Whittington. It is based on the tragic true story of Ruth Ellis, the last woman to be hanged in Great Britain.

Another "sing as many carols as you can in 2min challenge"! :)

I love Simon & Garfunkel. This is me singing a mashup of The Sound of Silence and Scarborough Fair.

Mally singing part of Soave sia il vento from Così fan tutte by W A Mozart.

Part of a "Dock of the bay" jam session with my husband David ...featuring noises from our upstairs neighbours that led to an Indian mini-riff on "Heartbreaker" by Mariah Carey.

I'm not sure of where this is going. But this is a tune that I call "Hum one".

"Hotel California" by The Eagles...featuring my preschooler telling me to "Stop singing!". Sigh. 

A silly song I made up for my kids called "Hungry woodpecker" that is related to a quotation in "The Dip" by Seth Godin: "A woodpecker can tap twenty times on a thousand trees and get nowhere, but stay busy. Or he can tap twenty-thousand times on one tree and get dinner." Hungry woodpecker Lyrics: A hundred trees makes a hungry woodpecker A hundred trees makes a hungry woodpecker A hundred trees makes a hungry woodpecker Peck peck peck Grumble grumble :)
