Today:

- is the last day of winter here (depending how you measure it)!

- there was a big sea lion on the small local beach

- we had a nice family gathering for my niece’s 18th birthday, with lots of laughs over some of her gifts. Her big brothers gave her some old records, including a Wombles one (they used to listen to a Wombles record as young children at their grandma’s place)

"My heart will go on" - Céline Dion

The Wombles were interval entertainment at the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest. Céline Dion was interval entertainment at this year's event.

Why was there a Wombles revival in 1998? There was a new animation series on ITV, and they were trying to reprise the tie-in merchandise from the mid-seventies.

"Remember you're a womble" - The Wombles

Mumford and Sons were formed on Wimbledon Common, when Brian Mumford was around the Rushmere and invited the others to be in his band.

Here's a song from the best band ever to come out of the Common.
