Pluviophile - A lover of rain

Pluviophile – A lover of rain

Pluviophile: (n) a lover of rain; someone who finds joy and peace of mind during rainy days A word I just leaned today, which I don’t think is a official word yet, as I could not find it on www.oxforddictionaries.com. Though it does describe me very well, I really do enjoy the sound of rain on a tent or on the window. Walking in the rain, just calms me down, I have spend many hours walking at…

Our house

What are the earliest memories of the place you lived in as a child? Describe your house. What did it look like? How did it smell? What did it sound like? Was it quiet like a library, or full of the noise of life? Tell us all about it, in as much detail as you can recall. Going a wee bit of prompt today, but still is about early memories. My mum tells me the story: That when I was a wee nipper, I…

When Childhood Ends, does it?

When Childhood Ends, does it?

Write about a defining moment in your life when you were forced to grow up in an instant (or a series of instants). I’m pretty much against the “you have to grow up” brigade. I could go into a massive ramble here, but I will keep it short. Kick them leaves, have a go on the swings, jump into the puddles even when you are five, fifty-five or lucky enough to be hundred and five. OK, now and again…

The groove with SomaFM

The groove with SomaFM

Today’s Wednesday Morning Playlist is – GrooveSalad. Years ago, well still now, GrooveSalad on SomaFM was/is used as background music while working. I was freelancing and one company, let me use their offices to do my work, since most of the work I did was for them. We were about six in the office, with pretty much the same music style, but often would like to listen to something else. So we…

Soundscapes

This idea is blatantly nicked from BBC World Service’s brilliant program called World Update: Daily Commute. They have a section called Soundscapes, listeners send in a recording of their daily lives and the sounds that is around them. Today I heard three noises from outside, in a row that made a story. Yes, it is wild, crazy and utterly random, so bear with me. The idea is to write a story, as…

Den vita stenen

First Crush: Who was your first childhood crush? What would you say to that person if you saw him/her again? Well I can’t do this, since I ever meet her in real life. She is the main character in a Swedish TV program – Den vita stenen – recorded back in 1973. I think I watched the first time it in 1976. I’m sure that I managed to catch the rerun a few years later, sadly the big crush was gone by…

Stop Making Sense

Over the last year or so, I have texted a very good friend on Wednesdays* with a “Morning Play List”, since we both like and need music in our lives. So I was thinking why not do it here too. Today’s play list is Talking Heads best of – Sand in The Vaseline – and then I just have to play Stop Making Sense after, even if Sand in The Vaseline got most of the tracks on it. My big brother came home…

Typed by hand

When was the last time you wrote something by hand? What was it? My hand writing has never been any good, you would think that I was a doctor if only saw my hand printed scribbles. It has only become worse the more I have access to technology. If you look away from the spelling and typo’s and like me wished that grammar was never invented, I’m pretty fast at typing. I really do like that I can…

Size matters

When you are a tourist in the UK you will end up hearing – it’s the size of double decker buses or this is higher than the Nelson Column. Even if you have lived here for the whole of your life or a good part of it. You might not spend a lot of time near either, therefore you really don’t have a reference to the size they really are. Other than a big red thing and a tall long thing with a wee man…
