Hello, and welcome to a another weekend selfie; the first of 2025. 


This week we have been so pleased to get back to normal after the alleged 'holiday season'. It seems so stressful for most people, and expensive.

Whilst Upper Much-Mousing doesn't go berserk like some places, Mrs Singh's International Food Emporium, the local corner shop, was doing a fine business. She is a shrewd saleslady with an eye for making life easier and cheaper for all her customers and herself. Villagers were allocated times to collect their shopping. 

This year also saw, through the miracle of online shopping – ie using the shops multi-camera roving security cameras, so customers could browse the shelves and, with the help of the village Cub scout and Brownie troops, fill a real shopping basket which they could pay for at the real shop till using a credit card.  

This year, the villagers have taken to a whole food plant based diet. Although some of the hard of hearing residents took this to mean they needed to eat an entire Christmas meal meant for a family of four themselves! Needless to say, Mrs Singh reported a spike in indigestion tablets for those folks. 

With our larder all stocked up, the sherry decanter almost full, and the cream delightfully whipped to almost clotted thickness, we settled down to watch a play from the National Theatre, in London. 

It was actually a play set In Memphis, by Katori Hall, called The Hot Wing King.

OK, enough of our non-meat, full-fun, stop-at-home, stress-free non-holiday, lets get on with a selfie!




Not quite the morning after the night before. . . . .
