Odds & Ends

Things that don’t have a home anywhere else

Nice Things

“When you do something nice for somebody, forget it immediately. When someone does something nice for you, never forget it.”

Lesson from Jim Haynes – The Guardian

Reckless

What does it taste like? It tastes like not giving a shit with a hint of recklessness.

We Are Not Broken

Sister Monica Joan steals the show again (s7 e8) with this apposite moment:

We are leaping into grief as if we had embraced it as a form of recreation. We are not what we have lost. We are not what has been taken from us. You are all too willing to embrace the void. If you do not cherish what remains you will all become as nothing. You will be nothing. We are not broken. We are each as whole as we will ever be again. And in the end when we cease to be we will all become memories.

As usual Sister Monica Joan, the character with the most clouded vision, cuts through the confusion with the greatest of clarity.

Ghost Town

Ghost Town by The Specials is an eminently hummable tune and to find a fragment of it in the Coventry Transport Museum was an unexpected delight.

Hands of God

The Christmas special of the Call the Midwife i always guaranteed to bring out a warm inner glow. As usual it it Sister Monica Joan who steals the show in the 2017 Special while talking to the atheist Valerie:

“Often the hands of God are found at the end of our own arms.”
