Happy Fathers’ Day For six years, Richard has been involved in
supporting the Father and Son Day initiative based at the Royal Marsden
Hospital so, yesterday, he posted a message to help raise funds for this
worthy cause, which deals with male cancers.
Here is a link to Richard’s message, posted from
his base in California, with details of how to donate: https://www.instagram.com/p/CBrkp9cJ-wW/?igshid=5ctn1xjmifyj And you will love this gif: https://twitter.com/i/status/1274635643822505984
... I can
just imagine Richard saying hello to me, over and over again … despite, of
course, the gif being silent!!! Here we
have a number of screenshots too, taken from Richard’s IG post … and also
featuring his dad, Richard senior! |

And you will gather from these screen-shots, that I’ve been experimenting
with a couple of photo apps I have on my phone … Square Pic and SquareQuick …
and I find it very addictive, especially when photos of Richard are
involved!!! Here are two more of my experimental photos - the ‘heart’ is an out-take
photograph from the Guardian Weekend magazine article, published in May
2019. The other from the UK premiere
of Cinderella, in 2015. |

this page … with more to follow, hopefully, in the next few days. J |

It’s a very special day today as, 34 years ago,
Richard entered the world … |
||
|
Many happy returns of the day to our very special
and very beautiful man. Thank you for bringing immense joy and happiness
to your many admirers throughout the world, brightening our lives by your presence within
it. We shall continue to treasure you deep within our
hearts, and we look forward to following your
career for many years to come. Take care
Richard, and please stay safe during this difficult time. |

And, of course, thanked everyone for their kind birthday wishes … |

There are a few ‘murmurings’ regarding Eternals … It has been suggested that extra scenes for
Eternals are going to be shot in the Canary Islands ... And to affirm that reshoots, as with all movies,
will be taking place, Salma Hayek who plays Ajak,
has dyed her grey roots in preparation!!!
For me, it’s far too late to worry about grey
hair … I was growing my hair longer, before the lockdown, but it was supposed
to be in a controlled manner!!!

Today I’ve been busy
setting up a number of new pages on my website – namely Cinderella, Klondike
and Be Near Me; links within the Filmography. I’m currently
suffering from demotivation; having worked at home for four weeks before
being furloughed. I don’t know what
the future may hold … especially at my age L The current highlights
of my days, apart from daydreaming of Richard, are walking 3 to 4 times a
week and watching Escape to the Country!!! I’ve made numerous
cheap and cheerful necklaces … but, despite having many crochet and knitting
projects to commence, I’ve only made one crochet snood since the beginning of
May, and that was using the leftovers from three previous projects. I’m not taking any
chances with regards to the pandemic; all walks are from home, I go
supermarket shopping just three times every fortnight, and the furthest I’ve
driven is two circular tours of the local area (to Wheathampstead
and to Harpenden/Redbourn) to ensure my car’s
battery doesn’t go flat. I have purchased an
assortment of material to make masks but, so far, have managed to create just
four … well, I did say I was feeling demotivated. I met up with my
friend Lesley at Verulamium Park a couple of weeks
ago and we spent over two hours chatting, so that was very nice. And I keep
in regular contact with three of my work colleagues too, via WhatsApp. * *

* * Richard has been busy, supporting the ‘Black Lives Matter’ campaign,
peacefully protesting in California; at Santa Monica and Sunset Boulevard to
name but two protests. He is a good man, although I do worry about
safety with Covid-19 still a serious issue.
