I didn’t need the stress of waiting

Prosopagnosia Update

Posted on November 4, 2015

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-34709004 On the BBC News page today is another article about Prosopagnosia, about which I wrote in last years blog on November 13th – if you’ve a mind to look it up.  http://carriecohen.co.uk/blog/page/3/ If you can’t be bothered to follow the links, prosopagnosia is faceblindness – the inability to recognise faces. It’s horrid but not

HOW TO GET A SEAT ON PUBLIC TRANSPORT

Posted on November 3, 2015

Here is my infallible way of getting a seat on a crowded tube train if you are unable to stand for any reason be it pregnancy, sprained ankle or, like me, a propensity to faint in crowds. Stand in front of a priority seat or, a seemingly fit person. Smile. Ask in loud but firm

To Blog Or Not To Blog but I loathe David Cameron anyway.

Posted on November 1, 2015

Not terribly sure if I want to commit to a blog a day this year although I did get a deal of satisfaction in having achieved the goal. I may spend some time later this evening, when it is quiet, re-reading what I wrote last year and maybe cheating a little bit by adding some

NUMBER THIRTY

Posted on November 30, 2014

FINAL BLOG – FOR NOW I found This NovBlog challenge a bit like quitting smoking. Writing a daily article was something I’d often thought of doing but wasn’t sure if I’d have the discipline. I was highly motivated to stop smoking (financial rather than health issues, though I never felt comfortable smoking standing up under

FIT, FAT AND OVER FIFTY

Posted on November 29, 2014

I am of larger build, cuddly but not tall enough to be described as statuesque.  Bottom line (and mine is not a pert derriere) I am a smidgen over chubby but (not yet) obese. I suppose the word I am avoiding is fat. I like food. I like different tastes and textures. I don’t like

NEED AND WTF BLACK FRIDAY

Posted on November 28, 2014

What’s NEED go to do with it. Today is Black Thursday.  It’s not a religious holiday related to Xmas, Easter or Passover although it does involve worship; whore-ship of Mammon. (Who was/is mammon?  Note to self: look up Mammon on’t internet when less pressed for time.) Am pushed for time today because every store in

REHEARSED READINGS EXPLAINED

Posted on November 28, 2014

I thoroughly enjoy acting in rehearsed readings. “What does that mean?” You might ask. A rehearsed reading is a group of actors enacting a piece reading rather than having learnt the words.  Also known as a “script in hand reading.”  It is actually as simple as it sounds but also challenging, not least because most

GOOD ACTING – RANDOM THOUGHTS

Posted on November 27, 2014

GOOD ACTING is only one element of an enjoyable piece of drama but, without it, the best writing, directing and production values come to naught.  Performers are the front line of a show and they can, in fact, lift lack-lustre scripts.  When all four elements combine then an amazing piece of artistic work appears. I
