An #Otwituary for music producer and arranger #Quincy Jones To be that vital, that permanent, the slender thread braiding sweet and swing and stomp and screen, in good company and bad, always beating out your own signature.

One of the nicest after-holiday activities is trying to recreate those memorable dishes. A decent attempt was made at Spinach Pie and Giant Lima Beans and tonight’s will be Aubergine Imam. If only I had Corinthian pottery to cook it in!

What a visit. We feel very blessed to have seen so many spectacular sights. And to have walked up so many rocky mountains. And to have spotted a turtle in the wild! Corinth, Nemea, Mycenae, Epidaurus and Nafplio, thank you.

When I’m not there, you are, – Jeanette Burton @Nettie31 atriumpoetry.com/2024/10/22/whe…



Our cruise apprehension has proved unfounded and we have seen some beautiful and wonderful sights, particularly in Istanbul and Ephesus. But the greatest and deepest pleasure has been just sitting watching the sea. What beauty and peace it brings - even on this last stormy night.
