A Tati Party

After yesterday's washout, I managed to get out into the extensive gardens here at Dolores Delargo Towers (and even enjoyed some spells of sunshine!) to get more pottering bits and pieces done. With about 300 plants in pots, there's always something that needs some attention...

Time, methinks for a light musical interlude, courtesy once more of the geniuses at Soft Tempo Lounge:

Ah, that's better.

[Music: Syd Dale - Brass But Lightly; Original Film: Jacques Tati's Playtime (1968)]

All Hulot's Day

Oh! Thank fuck for that; it's all over. Of course, the "Festering Season" will still plague us for a while yet, with "jolly" music and bloody-tinsel-clad-everything well beyond its shelf-life, all through the (inevitable) sales and beyond - until, that is, the shelves are cleared for Valentines/Easter/whatever come the middle of January...

Time, methinks, for a little trip into Monsieur Hulot's subtly satirical world, with this slice of 60s fabulousness - and to lose ourselves in another easy listening interlude, courtesy of the faboo Soft Tempo Lounge:

Music: Fabio Fabor - Douce Ensemble

Ah, that's better.
