Thought for the day



Who wouldn't want to read about Tallulah Bankhead, who caused a scandal in 1928 when she hosted sex and cocaine parties for Eton schoolboys. An Eton teacher was said to have told her, “We don’t at all mind you taking some of the senior boys over for a smoke or a drink or a little sex on a Sunday afternoon. That doesn’t upset me. What does upset me is you giving them cocaine before chapel.




And from the brilliant and tawdry to the outskirts of Monmouth  as seen coming down from

Offas Dyke. The photos are with the kind permission of  Bernadette. I was aching, lacking joie de vivre, and just in need of a beer.
