It's Paul McCartney's birthday today and he turns 70. Sir Paul has had the most distinguished career in music as a member of the British band, The Beatles. He formed Paul McCartney and The Wings and this hit is one of the band's classics. Don't let the slow start to the song keep you from listening all the way through. The song has an upbeat tempo that jams to the end.
Paul McCartney is still playing music and performing. He just recently performed at the Queen's Jubilee in London. Happy 70th Birthday Paul McCartney!
Hi everybody, just finished watching the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. The performances were great and the crowd was huge. It was nice to see the London flags waving from the crowd who were on their feet the whole time. Tom Jones performed and is still sexy and handsome as ever;-) Elton John sang many favorites including "I'm Still Standing." Stevie Wonder performed "Isn't She Lovely" and "Superstition." Sir Paul McCartney and his band closed out the performances.
The cameras panned over to the seating area of the Royal Family and some were gesturing in delight at the music. A jubilee fit for a Queen indeed! Let's hear that Elton John song I like so much again.
The read states that Victoria's Secret will open its first UK store on July 25 just in time for the Olympic Games. Another store will open the very next day in Stratford, east London. The photo with this post is from a Victoria's Secret show last year.
Check out these spots to fill up the sketch pad with all the delights you discover. One of the places is Seattle and it would be cool to sketch (or at least try) the Space Needle. I like London and Venice too. Don't forget to pack your sketch pad and plenty of pencils;-)
Take a look inside this home, make that mansion in London. The person who buys this place has got to have lots of money. I bet the real estate agent doesn't even bother showing it until they check the potential buyer's money portfolio. Let me share this tidbit with you ->I sold my condo some years ago and the buyer was purchasing her first home. My real estate agent called me and said she had an interesting request from the buyer. I was intrigued! My agent said the buyer wanted to know if I would sell her the entire contents in every room. I'm not bragging, but my condo was beautiful. It had a gorgeous sun room with white wicker furniture and lots of other fine looks including a hunter green leather sofa set which fit the living room area perfectly. All I would have to pack when I moved were my clothes and other personal stuff, but no moving truck needed. I turned down the offer. If I ever get asked again, I might just say "yes."
I'm sure many of you watched the Royal Wedding today. It was truly a spectacular event not only for London, but everyone around the world. Her dress was beautiful and I especially like the lace touches and train. I thought Prince William looked dapper in his military uniform and the bright red color added a definite pop. I like Kate's new royal title, The Duchess of Cambridge. From the carriage ride to the two kisses on the Buckingham Palace balcony, the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton has made this TGIF royal indeed. Here's wishing them all the best as they begin their life as husband and wife.
