Angel


I took this photo because I am sure that I have never seen a completely blue angel before [Blue Nun wine yes but then that's a completely different story!]. Located in one of the side chapels in King's College Chapel, Cambridge.

    I wonder if there is a story behind the ‘blue angel’. I’ve never noticed a completely blue angel before, not that I’ve really looked, but I will be now.

      I'm afraid I can't shed any light on it. They were a series of windows with unrelated fragments set in them.

      Yes it is. The wine is not my taste, but I do so like the blue bottle it comes in!

TYM is moving from his shared house into a furnished flat in another town next month [still renting] and due to the insurance on the property there are a few mobile items with plugs that you have to provide yourself. That in itself really isn't news. He has decided to buy himself a microwave, a toaster and a vacuum cleaner. Although his salary has increased with his recent promotion so have his necessary outgoings so he has to be mindful when spending. Only a couple of weeks ago I found out that there's a local house clearance company who are trying to improve the reputation of the business by not just throwing everything they can't sell into landfill. Instead they offer items within a specified area for free which you can ask for on their FB page. If they select you they then drop it off on your doorstep for free when they're working or travelling en rout
