Country Ways and Cottage Days: Eurovision

Monday, 5 February 2024

🎵🎶🎵 Snowdrops and Daffodils . . .

. . . Butterflies and Bees ♫♬🎜🎝

Hello Friends!

I simply could not resist, and for those of you who know not of which I speak, or for those who wish to trip down Memory Lane, please listen here . . .

All Kinds of Everything

As my photos today will be predominantly snowdrops and daffodils I couldn't help reminiscing over the sweetly innocent Dana who won Eurovision in 1970 with the most charming song. Some great songs have come out of Eurovision, as well as Dana's All Kinds of Everything, Abba gave us Waterloo, and later came The Voice sung by Eimear Quinn, not forgetting in 1967 Sandy Shaw with Puppet on A String, or Love Shine a Light by Katrina and the Waves, to name but a few of the classics. I digress.

The flowers that herald the imminent passing of Winter are flowering, so can Spring be far behind? Snowdrops and Daffodils ~ the opening words of Dana's song!

Just to round out the opening bars, here are the butterflies and a bees. . .

Do you have a favourite Eurovision winner?

Until next time

Stay safe, stay well

Croeso ♥ Welcome

Over the years the concept of my blog has changed and it is now become a vehicle for therapy. For those of you who are following I beg your forgiveness for all spelling errors, punctuation errors and grammar errors that occur within my writing. As many of you know, I have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. This limits my day to day activities in ways I could not have foreseen nor even begin to understand. One of these ways is that I can no longer type manually and rely on a Dictaphone which has its own mind, just like good old auto correct it decides where the punctuation should occur and how words should be spelled. It even decides what I am trying to say. I plan to keep on blogging for as long as I can. I might not get around to commenting and replying on all of your lovely comments, but they are all read, and greatly appreciated. Much love always.
