Masturbation in the 30's

In the 1930's this remarkable book gave us all the answers...

I came across this literary gem in a secondhand bookshop in Muswell Hill, it is filled with many exquisite facts..

Oh my this explains an awful lot..

This poor chappie was a victim of his own carelessness..  tee hee

Oh dear!!

The asylums should be bursting at the seams!!!

Beautiful skin..

Boy you have such beautiful skin

It's holding all the pain within.

Hold on, hold on to what you've got

Prepare yourself it's not a lot.

Where is the love that you have earned

Lay twisted in the fires that burned.
Boy you have such beautiful eyes
The windows to this child's demise.
An aperture to this cursed gloom
Death's overpowering cheap perfume. 

The screams and wailing hacks and cuts

That echoes through the village huts.

Don't come out from your hiding places

Do not reveal your tear stained faces.

Boy you have such beautiful skin

But what's this hell you're living in?

Man has no mercy for the frail

If God is love, where is he now?

I am my own true fate....

With tiny steps I tread with care

what lies ahead I'm unaware.

I walk in darkness with no proof

Of what's to draw me from my youth.

Each day an open ended plot

To teach me something I'd forgot.

With arms outstretched I make my way

through obstacles of each new day.

What's left behind what's down the track?

'Oh juvenescence take me back!.

I want the passion and energy

I want to be all glittery.

To write and act out my life's story

On a podium of self earned glory.

To feel the sun upon my face

The warmth and glow of one's own grace

Adore, adore, adore myself

This is the meaning of true wealth.

Doggy bath day!

These pics are the cutest.. ozzy and hugo had a bath day, and Zack was the groom master..

IMATS great day out..

On Sunday January 30th we went to the IMATS Trade show at Alexandra Palace

www.imatsshow.com/london/london_index.php

there was some excellent work by some genius prosthetic experts

I, for one bought some gorgeous glittery eye makeup, which cheered me up big time.
Tickets were £33 advance, or £45 at the door which was obviously devised to attract only the serious contenders to the venue, I did wonder whether I'd get my money's worth but I really did enjoy our day there, and will deffo go back next year!

Me and my Patchouli..

My signature aroma has always been Patchouli otherwise known as Pogostemon Patchouli, the popular incensey scent of the 1960's, which carries for some the nostalgia of our youth, whilst for others it simply smells awful.

 It's the Marmite of perfumes, you either love it or hate it.. and I love it..

The other thing about it is, that it improves with age, which is something I like to think that Mr Patchouli and I both have in common

When I was about 13 I started wearing it, I would say that my early introduction to it was through my dad, who aquainted me with it's spiritual uses through his pagan religious beliefs, he told me of its abilty to draw the opposite sex, it's sensuality, and it's powers of warding off negativity and evil, and said that by burning it I would attract prosperity and open myself up to the possibilities of clairvoyance and divination.

My Dad

the lingering breeze of you, your wisdom, your weaknesses, your beautiful charm, I smell you, I am comforted for I am not alone, it's all about the trace, it's all about the memories.

I think its earthy smell is all about the wearer, it's about living outside the box, and daring to stand out, it's inexpensive and you don't wear it with designer clothing, it's non-materialistic it's anti establishment, it's rebellious, it's creative.... it's lalala wooo

The joys of Sausage Making.

This Christmas, I got a sausagemaker from

 https://www.weschenfelder.co.uk/ they are a very helpful and reliable company in Middlesbrough who can provide you with all that you need to make gorgeous sausages.. plus the equipment, and sound advice.
and what a gorgeous machine it is..

it definitely requires two pairs of hands, but the results are brilliant.

All fresh ingredients go into mincer

Ha ha, posing for the camera.. thank you Hannah! for taking them.. 

Then the fun begins!

And the results are super!

I used a recipe for Toulouse sausages which are gorgeous, here goes...

makes about 20 sausages;

Ingredients;

                  2kg roughly minced pork belly... (or shoulder)

                  30g fine sea salt

                  2g freshly ground nutmeg

                  5g freshly ground black pepper

                  100ml red wine

                  20g garlic chopped. (I used granules)

                  large handful of flat leaf parsley chopped

                 4g fresh sage chopped. (you can use dried)

                 4g fresh thyme. 

                 2.5m hog casings

Basically you grind the meat up with all the other ingredients and fill the casings with machine..

We had some sausage meat over and my helper Zack, made himself a rather spectacular treat by forming it into a burger and creating a delicious brunch with bacon and egg in bread, from our freshy laid eggs of course.

Needless to say we were all jealous

 Job well done!
