In the Good Old Summertime | Family Sing Along - Muffin Songs

In the Good Old Summertime In the good old summertime, in the good old summertime. Strolling through the shady lanes with your baby mine. You hold her hand, and she holds yours, and that's a very good sign. That she's your tootsie-wootsie, in the good old summertime.

Mary Had A Kangaroo | Animal Song | Super Simple Songs

Lyrics: Mary had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb. Mary had a little lamb whose fleece was white as snow. Mary had a little lamb, and a big giraffe?! Mary had a big giraffe, big giraffe, big giraffe. Mary had a big giraffe whose neck was very long. Long, long, long, long. Long, long, long, long. Very very very long. And a rhinoceros. Hmmm? Mary had a rhinoceros, rhinoceros, rhinoceros. Mary had a rhinoceros whose horn was very sharp. Sharp, sharp, sharp, sharp. Sharp, sharp, sharp, sharp. Very very very sharp. A kangaroo, too? Mary had a kangaroo, kangaroo, kangaroo. Mary had a kangaroo whose pouch was very warm. Warm, warm, warm, warm. Warm, warm, warm, warm. Very very very warm. And a camel. Mary had a camel, camel, camel. Mary had a camel. Whose hump was very round. Round, round, round, round. Round, round, round, round. Very very very round. ***** Song: Mary Had A Kangaroo CD: Super Simple Songs - Animals Music: Super Simple Learning Animation: Tinman Creative Studios Vocals

For the past 23 years or so I've been fortunate enough to visit my friend A's country house, just a half hour outside of Stockholm. It's insanely photogenic, and the evening light on the particular day we were there this time round was ridiculous. We had a lovely time out there; swimming, eating and playing (and Oomoo got his first bee sting there too!) and I really hope we get to go again. What you can't see in these pictures is quite how packed the island has become, new houses keep being built for people who now live there all year round, and that country side feeling is quickly getting lost. My friend is thinking of selling up and getting something much further out in the Archipelago, but whatever happens, I'll always cherish my summer memories from this very special place.

I've Been Working on the Railroad | Family Sing Along - Muffin Songs

Lyrics: I've been working on the railroad I've been working on the railroad All the live-long day. I've been working on the railroad Just to pass the time away. Can't you hear the whistle blowing, Rise up so early in the morn; Can't you hear the captain shouting, "Dinah, blow your horn!" Dinah, won't you blow, Dinah, won't you blow, Dinah, won't you blow your horn? Dinah, won't you blow, Dinah, won't you blow, Dinah, won't you blow your horn? Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah Someone's in the kitchen I know Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah Strummin' on the old banjo! Singin' fee, fie, fiddly-i-o Fee, fie, fiddly-i-o-o-o-o Fee, fie, fiddly-i-o Strummin' on the old banjo. Someone's makin' love to Dinah Someone's making love I know. Someone's making love to Dinah 'Cause I can't hear the old banjo

Some random visual vignettes from Sthlm. The building in the last pic is on a very busy road, and I love the pattern that fumes and dirt have left on it. I doubt it'll look as pretty if/when it gets re-decorated...

TWINKLE TWINKLE LITTLE STAR - Pancake Manor

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star lyrics: *NEW SECOND VERSE written by Billy Reid & Rebs Stevenson Copyright 2014 Pancake Manor* Twinkle, twinkle, little star. How I wonder what you are. Up above the world so high, Like a diamond in the sky. Twinkle, twinkle, little star. How I wonder what you are. Twinkle Twinkle, here am I Ever young as the ages drift on by Show you way, (til night turns to day) Light years away (til night turns to day) I wonder what you are I wonder, wonder, wonder what you are Twinkle, twinkle, little star. How I wonder what you are. Up above the world so high, Like a diamond in the sky. Twinkle, twinkle, little star. How I wonder what you are.

Maximum selfie

I was trying to put together some Stockholm posts before bed last night, but I got into all sorts of technical troubles, so they'll have to wait. I should have known I was too tired to plonk myself in front of the computer instead of catching zzzzz's (or reading my bedtime read; Donna Tartt's 'Goldfinch' - sooooo gooood!). Anyway, during this technical hitch I'm posting a selfie I took at Tekniska Museet in Stockholm. Laters!
