HAPPY JULY // lifestyle

JULY  & SUMMER HOLIDAYS


Well the summer holidays are in full swing, the kids are out of school and the summer fun begins.

Whether it is going to the local pool or  swimming at the lake, it is always nice to take a break from the city.  That was always the most fun as a kid, packing up the car for trip to the seaside or lakes.





And of course , all the  summer movies were something else to look forward too.

I have to say the month of July there are  so many interesting events - number 1 are all the great outdoor movies held in the parks, at the city hall and many other places. I have always loved a good movie. So the latest movies are out and hope to see a few, before going on holidays.

One that looks funny is all about swimming ,  how appropriate. A British comedy called  Swimming with Men.  A group  of men that are synchronized swimmers.  Cannot help  but imagine
the swimming outfits.........

Another one- Based on a true story. the title. A thriller with Eva Green i.e. Bond girl.

The French comedies have me roaring every time we see one and the latest new one I think will be a summer favourite.  
MOMO ,  a married couple with no kids.and the surprise that changes their life. 
 I have to see this after seeing the actor 
in another hilarious French comedy,  Serial (bad )Weddings.


If you like movies and want to see some foreign films these might be some you can enjoy.

Have a great summer everyone!

Flying high // travel

B  Time to Fly   Sumer holidays are around the corner and deciding where to go or what to pack can e daunting experience.  So what to pack ? Well after reading how some airlines charge passenger to check the baggage. First I believe the budget airlines started , but now the big name ones have also started to charge it! American Airlines , southwest , Air Canada .  And the extra cost if is a jackpot for the airlines.  I have not travel with the budget lines but have used some of the others mentioned  and  I won’t be booking any trips with them!  Really what do they think? If the operate a service to transport you and your belongs  that should be included , NOT an extra expense.  Give you an idea of what they collect in these extra fees  then read this report via BBC.  Truthfully people need to tell these companies  NO .  Even a handbag is next to the list.   They are making BILLIONS from from these extra fees!...

THIS and THAT//fashion , festival

 Season Changes Well it has finally cooled down which makes it bearable to be outside. Naturally the swimming pools , lakes and rivers have seen plenty o people .  Festivals , Films  and Fashion  The festival season is winding down,  but one that I anxiously wait for is the Venice Film festival. A movie and fashion lover can’t miss it!  The return of Clooney on screen in  Venice with his gorgeous wife is a highlight.  Her fabulous fuchsia gown with the train was stunning . She stole the show!  Of course there were other stars on the red carpet  but no outstanding dresses .  Movies some are getting mentioned . For myself I’m not  sure what I be tempted to watch.  Julia  Roberts new one about college professor sexual harassment is a serious topic . Not light entertainment.  One film with Helen mirren, pierce Brosnan  about senior mystery book club sounds like light entertainment. The actors are all over 60 , s...
