Sing like nobody's listening

Dance like nobody's watching

I always liked that one Pat; rules to live by. 
 I think the full quote is:

Sing like no one is listening.
Love like you’ve never been hurt.
Dance like nobody’s watching,
and live (each day?) like it’s heaven on earth.

I might have made up the "each day" part but that's how I first heard it.

Poguey - you old romantic you!

If you'd ever seen me "dancing", Pogue, you'd know I fully subscribe to that line of advice anyway!

Thanks Pogue for filling out the quote.

The bit I posted was on the wall of a real eco restaurant in Batanes that I visited nearly every day.

Wooden structure with amazing food and decor.

Lovely quote and so true.

I had to have a peek at Batanes on You Tube Pat (checkin' up on ye) and it does look a bit like Ireland all right. Beautiful place you lucky man...I think the USA should take example - Ban Smoking and crime goes way down.
Hard to believe, but I live a no crime city in the US. I think it might be the only one. The last real crime here in Bay Village was when The Fugitive killed his wife (true) back in 1954. 

I must admit that I was a bit offended at all the hot women featured in the Batanes videosWink

If I had to choose between dribbling past 5 players and scoring from 40 yards at Anfield or shagging Miss World, it would be a hard choice.

Thankfully I've done both.

Here's one I just read...

"Those who can, do; those who can't, teach; those who can't even do that, critique!"

Hmmmmm ... Bit harsh on music critics ... Or not. ?

I'll stop after this ok...further to the above:

"...novelists often move into literary criticism. Both tasks involve the arranging of words within paragraphs."

The above and the quote in previous post are from an article in the IT magazine today by Donald Clarke - their film critic for a good long while but seems to be moving into writing other pieces (kinda op eds) for the paper. An acerbic, amusing writer with pretty strong opinions and well able to (humourously) justify them ... Like you Poguey !!!
