Fly Me To The Moon
Let’s leave our beautiful yet troubled blue planet and journey into space.
Which planets or stars would you choose to visit?
Would you like to visit the moon?
I once met a lady who prayed for every star.
When I go on my great journey I would like to visit many stars and planets.
I would like to visit the moon and glimpse the diamond planet and many stars and planets.
Space is fascinating, full of the unexpected and dangers.
Why is everything recorded in the universe?
Can we cross time barriers?
Can we travel to the future or the past?
We live on the most beautiful blue planet in the universe, yet peace eludes many.
Yet, the universe and space and its beauty beckons, as does knowledge.
I used to love Star Wars, and at the beginning Dr Who, and Blake’s Seven. Great series.
What fascinates most to you about the universe? Space travel? I think I might miss my friends and our earth.
There are some excellent books to read, too. Ray Bradbury, for one.
Perhaps our planet is more enjoyable after all, though….
Do you think other life exists?
Wish upon a star, what would you wish for?
So let’s post happy memories of space movies, music, gifs and memes, and of course, chat with our friends, and most of all, enjoy.
No politics or religious commenting, please.
Lian and Kieran …May all your wishes come true.️️ 🌎🪐⭐️💫⭐️
Moonlight Becomes You
Frank Sinatra - Moonlight Becomes You
Moonlight becomes you, it goes with your hair.
Gaslight is soft and gentle, but gaslighting destroys.
Candlelight is romantic.
Chandeliers are statement pieces.
Lighting has changed drastically through the ages.
I’ve always collected lamps. However these days fittings and light bulbs either don’t fit lamps or don’t do justice to antique lamps.
I have a house full of eastern lighting and chandeliers and oil lamps.
Candles are also lit, during power outages, but also when guests arrive.
Elton John - Candle In The Wind
Atmosphere can be created with the right light.
I love modern architecture, but my house has a mill room that is three hundred years old, walls are three ft thick installing even an air conditioner this year, was a nightmare.
London has a few streets and pubs, with the original gaslights. As a child in the winter, my grandmother conned me into bedtime. I had to wait for the lamplighter to climb his ladder to light the gas lamp, then it was time for bed.
Gas light is soft, but there is a need for more functional lighting for night driving and streets.
Some of you go camping, what lighting do you use?
Ellie Goulding - Lights
There is also another meaning for gas lighting, that seems prevalent with some people these days…Politicians, difficult people, employ these tactics to control others, there are many red flags in relationships where gaslighting is subtly employed. The expression comes from a movie. Lawyers are very aware of gaslighting in courts, and relationships.
Gaslighters are subtle control freaks, it can be difficult to spot them.
The Thomas Crown Affair - The Windmills Of Your Mind
So, the theme for discussion is light, gaslight, gaslighting, moonlight, starlight, and lighting in your home.
Music, memes, and gifs should complement the theme, as well as experiences.
We also like to chat and enjoy our discussion, respect others here, stay off politics and religious comments.
Enjoy…

If Music Be The Food Of Love…Play On! Silly Love Songs And Songs About Living
Enjoy what there is to enjoy.
And Shakespeare quotes or from your favorite movies.
Silly Love songs…. McCartney
Cathy’s Clown… The Everly brothers
Let’s think about love, let’s think about living.
Play It Again, Sam…
Bob Luman… Let’s Think about Living
For Romantic movies, nothing beats the quotes from Casablanca, a wonderful movie.
I like the humor and nostalgia.
Quote…
If you see a friend doing something wrong, correct them - do not be an enabler!
Every time I read the news, it appears that many people are dysfunctional.
Let’s encourage each other and be more positive!
There is, it seems, too much violence around! Let’s not dwell on the negative.
What is Influencing so many people? Is it the movie industry? The wrong values.?
Politics we know are disruptive so let’s keep off of that subject, and corruption.
Whilst we lightly discuss religion it is only to encourage, not to pressure another to change their views!
Enjoy, chat with friends, post good music, quotes, memes.

Food Glorious Food
Do you live to eat, or eat to live?
Have you got a sweet tooth? Or do you prefer savoury?
Do you eat combination food?
Are you on a special diet?
Don McLean - American Pie
I hate fast food, even the smell of it.
How do you start your day? With cereal, toast, a fry up?
Streetband - Toast
French fries and honey, and ice cream…Not for me! Disgusting!
Arlo Guthrie - Alice’s Restaurant
Meet friends, chat, post music, memes, gifs, songs, trailers, favorite recipes. Respect all commenters.
